If a fighter gets KD or beaten up in sparring a week before the match, how much damage does that carry to the match? How much time does it take to recover from a KO/KD without compromising performance?
None. You can't train a Chin. You have what you got. There is no way to improve it a week before the fight. :rofl
You bring in stiffer competition early in camp Weaker as camp tapers off but there is a balance .... Notice how spence jr wasn't brought in this part camp For Floyd because they basically beat the **** out of each other
I think the most notorious example is Leonard getting KOed in the preparation for the Hagler fight. Angelo Dundee manage to re-motivate him and imposed some changes in their initial game plan.
Good example. Leonard said he was out on his feet. Everybody was quiet on the ride home. But it took that for him to realize that he had to change his gameplan in order to beat The Marvelous One.
flash knockdown doesn't really mean anything sometimes they dont even hurt hurtful knockdown then yeah could affect them mentally
