Especially when yu consider both how badly he was crushed in the first fight and how his nature was truly one of offensive machine .. he really controlled himself that fight ..
Yes, he was a very sentimental fighter in some way, you hit him once, he hits you back three times, good for the spectator but makes him vulnerable.
I was criticizing him in some of his previous fights for being to conservative even when was a clearly the better fighter, but he but a masterclass on Rocky, every aspect in boxing was dominated by Lomachenko that night. In the other hand, Mario Kindelan was the amateur goat.
That version of Pacquiao was 100,000 times better than Corrales? Agree to disagree. Morales probably got tagged with 100 times as many hard punches as Mayweather did though. But an excellent performance, no doubt.
Some of my favorites: Bernard Hopkins-Felix Trinidad Floyd Mayweather-Diego Corrales Marlon Starling-Lloyd Honeyghan Michael Watson-Nigel Benn James Toney-Iran Barkley Salvador Sanchez-Danny Lopez (both fights, especially the first) Marvin Hagler-Tony Sibson Roberto Duran-Esteban Dejesus 3 Buddy McGirt-Simon Brown Pernell Whitaker-Buddy McGirt 2 (a good fight between 2 brilliant technical fighters, Whitaker was just better)
