This vid shows how conditioning in a fight can be vital, Canelo conditioning Khan into thinking he would throw a body shot, then landing that right to the hea instead is mentioned, could this tactic help him against Kovalev too? This content is protected
its called counter punching, you set em up with feints. if kovalev repeatedly responds the same to a jab, anywhere in the body, you feint to trigger that response, then punch where you know his head will be. its done all the time.
Same we call it feinting also. Canelo is a master at it in fairness. Became a huge thing in amateur boxing these past 20 years, eastern Europeans do it very well in more recent years
i guess technically its not counter punching, since youre not countering a punch, but i call it counter punching because you are countering a predicted move, with a punch... and i make my own rules.
