    Timing and feinting.

    My best way to get a guy with a left hook is by catching a dude who likes to parry a jab away.. keep throwing the jab, feint into left hook..

    mmm..

    Is that your strong hand? do you feel accurate throwing it?

    I've been working on that shot. I got the feint high and jab low combo down, but now I'm working on my feint jab and come around with a hook. It's extremely effective

    Its not Floyds best punch imo

    If you want to copy someone hooking off the jab watch Arguello

    What Floyd can do to Cotto(e)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzvFOYLIYPs#t=20m50s

    antonio magarito(e) feinted. Cotto(e) realized it was a feint. margo(e) does the same thing and Cotto(e) thinks a jab is coming this time. Cotto(e) reacts by swatting his right hand down as to parry what he believed was to be an upcoming jab. margo(e) instead slightly loops a left hand to get around Cotto(e)'s attempted parry and land a hook.

    Floyd does something very similar to what I described above below.

    He forced the same reaction Cotto(e) had out of Juan, so Juan exposes himself with a swat parry at an incorrectly anticipated jab. Floyd then loops his left hand around to hook.

    :yep

    The only bad thing with this is, if someone reads it he is wide open for a right hand. Espeically with leaping in, that could do some damage.

    Whenever I see Floyd do this, I think of the placement of the hook versus the feint. He never leaps in with a jab, only with the left hook. I think fighters see this but misplace their parry thinking the hook will be here, while Floyd shortens the hook inside. Thing of beauty.
