Not necessarily knock out type power, but how do good fighters deal with high number of punches? If anyone could tell me some film to watch that would be great.
Most typically don't just deal with the high volume of punches (though certain counter-punchers like Mayweather and Toney were able to adapt their styles to deal with this very well by slipping/rolling and countering the less effective arm punches with cleaner, harder shots), they rather make it difficult for the high volume pressure fighter to pressure and throw a high volume. Lateral movement is key, along with a crisp jab and/or top notch countering skills. [yt]MLgYA--Tvow[/yt] [yt]xfQnVwqH0Oo[/yt]
That was ok for the first 5 rounds, but than in the 6th round, the tide turn to Marciano winning MOST of the rest of the rounds. Once Rocky got going, All Charles seem to be able to do is take it, and hope to make it to the end, which is what happen. Marciano gave Charles a whipping.
Iono about that, Marciano was quoted that Charles was the opponent that taught him the true meaning of pain, being his toughest opponent.
Mayweather versus Chavez/Hatton/Castillo/Delahoya are good examples Hopkins-Calzaghe (more of a pressure boxer)
Clinching can defuse pressure fighters if it's done correctly. Look at Hopkin's/Calzaghe, or Ali/Frazier II.
It depends. He could move his feet and jab. He could counter. He could make him miss, and cause him to lose stamina. He could clinch, maul his man, push off, then re-set. He could foul by using elbows, his head, or worse. If the guy doing the pressuring has the better power and chin, the guy with less is usually in trouble, unless he has some of the above skills and tactics I mentioned to off set the volume of punches and pressure. The best way to deal with pressure is to have power, and make the other guy respect you.
