stick and move should have become mundines trademanrk. he should have skilledhimself into a slick counterpuncher/mover like a ray leonard. instead, he just boxed thousands of rounds with no goal or immagination of where he wanted to end up. he CANT stick AND move. all he can do now is STICK and make GEALE MOVE. to save hislegs mundine must stand his ground, hit hard, body and head. make geale move all over. stick and move for 12 rds is beyond a 38yo mundine who trained like a plough hourse. stick AND move would speed geale up. stick and dont move will have geale retreat. mundine must domminate the early exchanges to earn respect and slow the fight down. thats why i say mundine has to jump on geale and prove his power early. mundine must dictate the fight from the start. if it goes to geales speed, mundine wont keep up. stick and dont move.
mundine has to do to geale, what manny siaca did to mundine. hit him hard and hunt him down. mundine **** himself that night. he ran a marathon. siaca hardly raised a sweat. a perfect blueprint for how mundine needs to treat geale. domminate him with power early, get geale on his bike.
Mundine's going to come out and try and rough up geale and put him off his game .It wont work as geale is too composed and calm. Geale will keep pressuring mundine till he gets tired and then ko him.
mundine has been in the ring with high workrate fighters before, and done quite well. his whole career he has worked on slowing fights down which he will try again against geale. his only losses have come to fighters that have hurt him. saica dropped him early, otke knocked him out, so did wood and Kessler was to strong. mundine will try and hurt geale. and at times has to try and force geale to go backwards.
otke didnt knock him out,mundine run out of puff goin backwards and knew he was gunna get ko'd if he didnt get out of there,as peterm said,geale will be too composed for watever mundine throws at him
Possibly one of the stupidest things I have ever scene Sally post. Choc has always been one of the most accurate punchers out there, both to the body and to the head. Choc lands a far greater percentages of his punches than his opponents. His speed and accuracy are far greater than Geales, and though Geale will throw more, I doubt even his most ardent huggers believe his landing percentage will be higher. And yes Mundine did knock out Acosta with a vicious body shot after wearing down his body all night... http://sosoboxing.com/boxing-video-watch-online/anthony-mundine-vs-ruben-acosta/
Swingin: I like your diagnosis of what Mundine might have to do in slowing Geale down; but realistically this might be interpreted to read that Mundine has to get in close and wrestling with Geale, which Chock isnt good at. Geale would love this. I think the best way for Chock to slow Geale down is to beat him to the punch, on every occasion. I do not think that Geal's stance provides him with enough protection. Chock can deliver block buster left jabs through Geale's weak defense. Pick Gealle off.....make him come to Chock....Chock must deliver shock, horror, fast, hard punches to break Geale's in and out, pitter, patter, sway away from incoming style. Go Anthony !
what you are describing is a fast paced fight. mundine hasnt the legs. hes 38yo. geale is a fight hardened 31yo who recently beat sturm over 12. a fast hard fight.....mundine gets kod by an accumulation of punches. knowing mundog, the ref wont have to step in. he'll just fail to get up. .
