I agree, the "front foot dominance" is not a big thing. The only "real" advantage the southpaw has is that he probably spars more right handed...
I've wrapped hands in a number of states for amateur and pro shows. At the amateur ones, nobody watches the wrapping but the fighter has to get...
It sure was a good punch, AND it came from the wrong side! Southpaws are hard for most people to fight and some can never pick up the left hand....
Bert Cooper was 25 years old when he fought Holyfield, hardly "an ageing journeyman."
I might have to watch some of Bellew's fights, there are some nice left hooks in that video. The one he threw at 50 seconds with the extreme...
Good points. Ali is bigger, faster, more skilled, but why would he want to fight a bare knuckle fight? Unless there is enough money in the pot...
Also, when I think of Norton's defense, Usyk's right jab would be coming over the low left hand of Norton's, keeping Norton's right hand busy...
Thanks. I like fighters with good fundamentals and IMO that starts with the feet. I like the ones who don't cross their feet when moving to the...
Already posted this earlier, but it applies again. Most of the old time fighters look about the same, they fight like people who have not been...
You Tube doesn't mention that these are not the real fighters. If you're right and these are actors, it shows how primitive the fighters of that...
do you really believe that this guy was a top knockout puncher at 160? He hardly throws a punch, then he gets knocked down by a push/jab....
That guy was trying to hit Yarde with the mitts, luckily he couldn't land anything. The mitts are not made for punching and there are a lot of...
Everything has it's place, but I'm not a fan of some mitt workouts I've seen. The type where the coach and fighter do a choreographed routine and...
IMO, Ali did not make "fundamental" errors, he was well schooled. His "style" and some "techniques" were sometimes unconventional but he had the...
My fighters weigh between 118-140, I've never said they would beat or lose to anybody in particular. I did say that I'd rather watch them spar...
