He made many mistakes in the Taylor fight that i dont think he'll make again. Admitedly he did look novice raw at times in the fight, more so than in previous fights.He still pulled off a magnificent win,and McCracken will defo iron out those creases.:good
It was that uppercut that landed him in trouble in 3rd and got him KD against Taylor ... he threw it, missed, got bounced off the ropes and set up for the KD. He doesn't seem to ever listen to anything McCracken says.
he does have a world amateur medal doesnt he? he couldnt be that bad fundamentally if thats the case? or wait........all the am's that qualified for that were all 'bums' as have been every single of the professional fighters that he has faced....
In froch's interview on buncey he said he was given no time at all to warm up(a dibellend ploy no doubt) Just watched the fight again and it's clearly a massive factor in the how the fight went.After such a bad start he just could'nt get his rythm goin,everything was forced. It's a horrible feeling, nothing flows like it should.You start to think to much about things you can usually do in your sleep.And when you force it you start lunging in with silly shots,gettin your feet tangled up,nothin feels right. Then strangely,when you feel the fights out of reach,you think, **** it, its **** or bust. and things just happen and your punches start to flow.
i rekon someone huit the nail on the hea earlier saying he watches too much Naz and Roy Jones Jr in fact its giving me a great idea to write an articule about this Naz effect
He throws the uppercut because he is a big street fighter fan he is showing his respect to ryu, ken and especially sagat TIGER ............ UPPERCUT
