    People only seeing the negatives in Takam's performance against Parker. Facing Parker is a very different proposition to facing Duhaupas.

    Duhaupas doesn't move like Parker or have the power and speed of Parker. Look at how Duhaupas fights, he covers up and marches in, he isn't the boxer mover type, even when facing shorter opponents he walks right at them. Takam isn't going to have to look for Duhaupas much and he isn't going to have to worry about anything coming back because Duhaupas isn't a big puncher.

    Takam throws hooks and looping shots, the kind of shots that go round high guards like Duhaupas'. High guards work better against straight shots but hooks go round the high guard and Takam will find ways through that guard.
