    In a gist, what was MAB saying? The enactment seemed quite sharp...

    More proof that WBC kingpin Jose is losing it... He called Cotto "Soto".

    MAB is describing some of Manny's flaw's, Saying that he crosses his feet/Stay's flat while moving side to side. (Also jokes that many couldn't capitalize including himself)

    Gives Manny prop's on his Body punching, Say's Pac likes to paw with the jab and then unload with a straight shot to the stomach. MAB say's while watching the ODLH fight he noticed Manny was using that body shot then coming back and feinting the same shot instead coming up to the head with a punch. (MAB say's Manny Body work also took his fight away)

    Recomends Cotto holds & leans on Pac thruout to attempt to tire him, Basically for Cotto to use weight & size. (Show Pac what a true Welter is...)

    In a gist...

    He was saying that pac like to come in punching with both his hands and no defense and only someone who can counter punch and is strong can counter that...the straight left to the gut is a powerful punch which makes u drop your guard and the attack upstairs follows...cotto needs to close the distance and impose his weight and strength on pac from the early going to get him tired...

    Good insights, never figured Manny for someone who uses body punches to set up attacks, I always thought he was more of an all out head hunter... interesting

    :think Pretty interesting, gracias mi amigo...:good

    Goes to show that Marco can be a good trainer, or fight analyst in the future, with a tart sense of humor; that Manny is an underrated body-puncher; is a smart fighter, among other things...

    His recommendation for Cotto to hold & lean however seemed a little questionable to me (look at Hatton) as Pac is quick on his feet and would have none of that.

    MAB also comment's on after seeing footage on Pac's last fight's he see's an opening on Pac's 1/2 flurry's. (Also say's after 24 Rds with Manny he never seen it before)

    But say's if a fighter can side step his fast 1/2 combo upstairs Manny can be countered (Like JMM showed us) with either a over hand right, Or a body shot depends on which side you slip to.

    I'm looking forward for him to be a trainer if he retires.

    MAB finally showing some respect. No more bush fires, metal in the head, and training camp transfers. :clap:

    ....There was footage of the camp..on fire. :huh
    ...There's a huge scar on his head. :-(

    As long as he don't ever blame a draw on socks, I'm cool.

    What was this kind of sh*t doing here? Stick to the topic. Show at least a fraction of the analytic prowess MAB has for fights and fighters.
