Angelo Dundee: "The style of Margarito is the style that gives a southpaw trouble." :think "Margarito has the style to give him ulcers." - Angelo Dundee:happy slow ulcers! http://www.eastsideboxing.com/news.php?p=25718&more=1
Cotto was his third time i think this would make for his fourth http://www.gmanews.tv/story/175802/dundee-not-betting-on-a-pacquiao-win-vs-cotto
Dundee I think believes Pac is a threat to the fighters he trained. SRL, Ali, etc. He doesn't want them his greatness to overtake theirs. Just a hunch/theory. Ali won't be over-taken unless Pac beats Margo and than Mayweather.
I think he is saying that because Margo is a volume puncher who applies pressure, and that the best way fight a lefty, is to apply pressure, only it does not always translate to being effective against them, if it did, then Hatton most probably wouldn't of had the trouble he had with Collazo, or some of the other left handers he fought I think what is with southpaw's, you have to apply a momentum of pressure by putting punches together to get close, then go to work when you have worked your way into that position, cause its harder for them to step away from those punches when your in that position. I think where some people go wrong, they try throw with power when throwing those set up punches, which means the transition to then next punch comes slower, cause you have committed too much to the first, which makes it easier for them to roll out/away from the next punch. You should be not be looking to land hard with singles, you should look to put your punchers together to get into position, then throw harder when your close enough to get something significant done.
I agree. His volume punching style has complete disregard for his opponents style, southpaw or orthodox. Both are gonna hit him an equal amount of times and he swings wide from both sides so it doesnt really matter to him what angle they shoot from.
