    Chang will certainly get hit by Canto, but his legs, unpredictable offensive output, reflexes and spacial awareness will more than compensate for Canto's technical mastery imo.As long as he doesn't just go all out constantly and end up becoming predictable that is.

    Would be a great fight whoever wins.

    At his best though he used all of them variety of attacks to good advantage. IMO he just swarmed all over when he knew he could get away with it.

    Perhaps. Perez looked a bit too wide and predictable with his punches to ever really cause Canto too much trouble though. No doubt he'll hit whatever he can get on Canto, but I don't see that being a successful strategy overall.


    Not too sure about that. Chang was more frenetic at mid and close range, but I think he was also a bit more clumsy. He'd leave himself vulnerable to counters which less crafted fighters than Canto were able to prey upon.

    Harada wasn't as vicious and predatory in close, but he was less cluttered and technically more sound imo. Not necessarily better, but different and importantly, not any worse.
