View Full Version : Watch Henry Bruseles Train
PRboxingfan 01-19-2005, 10:06 AM Here is a link to a clip of Henry "Nitro" Bruseles training with Evangelista Cotto. I really like the way Cotto has taught him to keep his chin down and his hands up. He has picked up the Miguel Cotto style of fighting although without the power, lol. But, don't sleep on Bruseles, either. I expect a good fight on Saturday.
Anyways, here is the clip: click me (http://www.boxeomundial.net/misc/boxeomundial_videos/HenryBrucelesworkoutvideowmv.wmv)

jabsRstiff 01-19-2005, 10:10 AM What does Bruselles bring that could possibly trouble Floyd Mayweather ?
If the hope is that Floyd is overlooking Henry....what's gonna happen if Floyd comes in very ready ? A mismatch ?

People look at Bruseles and see two things: a young, unexperienced fighter and one that has already lost two matches. Let me tell you a bit about these two oversights: while he has lost two fights, the one against Zavala was highway robbery (I had it 98-92 for Bruseles) and the cut over his right eye against Ortega was due to a headbutt that the ref didn't see and should've been ruled a NC or a D. In my mind, he really is unbeaten. As for being unexperienced, when you have a trainer like Evangelista in your corner and you spar with the likes of Miguel Cotto, you gain experience quick. In his last fight against former title-holder Ener Julio Bruseles looked impressive. Too bad the fight was stopped due to an accidental headbut.
Bruseles brings a strong right hand and good lateral movement to the table. He also brings very good conditioning, something Mayweather has been known to lack as of late. He looked downright tired in the late rounds in his fights against Coreley, Sosa, and both JL Castillo fights. I don't know if it is because he is overconfident and was playing possum, but he did look tired to me. Yes, Floyd is faster and has mad skills, I'm not denying it (and I think he is going to win the fight, too) but I don't think it's going to be a blow out as many expect.
abdiel2k3 01-19-2005, 10:27 AM brussles will def put on a good fight
plus mayweather has seemed a bit more willing to actually fight
maybe he feels stronger at the higher weights
more comfortabel taken risks
puppy_dogg 01-19-2005, 10:33 AM those shots at the end were thunderous, i know he's not even a power puncher. id like to see a video of lil floyd
jabsRstiff 01-19-2005, 10:34 AM "Bruseles brings a strong right hand and good lateral movement to the table. He also brings very good conditioning"
........not even close to being enough to bother Floyd Mayweather.
ENER JULIO ?
He was shot before the year 2000.
I'm not trying to inflame anyone....just trying to keep this real.

thanks for the video man, if he can land ONE of those right hands on floyd he'll be able to turn the fight around.
otherwise, no good for dude.
vaya boricua! lets go henry!
jack_the_rippuh 01-19-2005, 12:14 PM It's even worse for Evangelista Cotto..
having to watch the beating his boy (Miguel) is in store for should he ever try to cross paths with Mayweather..
dansweeney 01-19-2005, 12:20 PM It's even worse for Evangelista Cotto..

mayweather will get knocked the **** out by cotto, he is in over his head at 140, cotto has the dam body of a junior middle when he enters the ring, his power will be too much for mayweather, you'll see him crumble under the pressure, i guarantee it

We haven't seen what Cotto can do when he faces someone worthy. Can Cotto take a punch as good as he can give it. Mayweather would be too fast and elusive for Cotto.

you could tell in the corley fight he lost a little speed, and cotto keeps his chin tucked tight as hell, floyd is not a onepunch guy, cotto's size will neutralize floyd's speed advantage, the guy hits hard man, i think it would be fight of the year type stuff though ill tell you that
PRboxingfan 01-19-2005, 01:42 PM We haven't seen what Cotto can do when he faces someone worthy. Can Cotto take a punch as good as he can give it. Mayweather would be too fast and elusive for Cotto.
Randall Bailey hits harder than Floyd, I'll guarantee you that! Also, PBF has never been known for power, even at lighter weights. We all know that as you go up in weight your power is affected so at 140 his punch shouldn't be that bad for Cotto. The only thing Mayweather would have an advantage over Cotto with is his speed but we all know that power negates speed and vice-versa. It should be a great fight, one that I think Cotto has a very good chance of winning.
Back to Henry, tho, if he can catch Floyd like Corley caught him in the 4th round, I think we can say good night to Floyd. He better stay ellusive and not get too close to the ropes.
Clay AikSkins 01-19-2005, 02:01 PM True fighters do often lose power when they go up but PBF will be different. Unlike Shane Mosely PBF throws combinations...and with his speed it will be the punch you don't see coming that will put you down. Bruseles will be no test....I would love to see the Cotto fight though....but if Cotto always wants to come in the ring at 155....15 pounds over the weight limit he is currently fighting in he should just move up already. A jr middleweight should be able to beat a jr welterweight.
jabsRstiff 01-19-2005, 02:09 PM I don't think you'll see Floyd stand still when facing known power hitters like Cotto & Tszyu.
He stood there with Corley because he thought Corley couldn't hurt him, & he was wrong.
Floyd didn't let corrales whack at him....& he won't against any real threat.
Look for him to use those unbelievable skills when the time comes....& expect anyone he faces to have a ton of trouble getting to him.
jack_the_rippuh 01-19-2005, 03:22 PM Where did you get the idea that power negates speed?
and where did the other guy the idea that size negates speed?
The only reson that Chop hurt him is because he is a lefty. Wht cant people see that? The first time he stunned him was because he caught Floyd while he was swinging. A punch that has KO alot of fighters. The second time he stunned Floyd he had a perfect defense and Chop still hit him square on the chin because he was a leftie and when that happeneds it hurts you even more because no right handers can hit you with that punch. He will KO Bruseles in 5 rounds. No more then 7
SweetScience 01-19-2005, 03:40 PM LEGS!
That's how Mayweather can win fights over Cotto and Tszyu. He's standing flat-footed right now, I need to see how his legs are at 140. That's what I will be looking out for on Saturday, movement and fast combinations.
PRboxingfan 01-19-2005, 03:42 PM Where did you get the idea that power negates speed?
and where did the other guy the idea that size negates speed?
Power does negate speed. I'll tell you what, you take any fast fighter and hit him hard in the ribs and tell me that he doesn't lose speed. It is the body attack, more than anything, that takes speed away from fighters but if you have a powerful body attack then you are really equiped for reducing your opponent's speed (assuming you can hit your opponent's body, of course).
LEGS!

He's standing flat footed because he is sitting down on his punches because he's a more offensive fighter now. He can still dominate all these guys that way
dansweeney 01-19-2005, 03:43 PM bruseles is no cotto though, the kid is the real deal, cotto is way too strong for him, watch the quitter come out in floyd when the pressure's on, he is a punk

All that **** doesnt matter. Every one has advantages and disadvantages. It comes down to whoever can use theres the best. Speed and Power, all that **** works bothways

Yeah, a undefeated #4# champ is a quitter. Cotto hasn faught anyone to be even comparing him to Floyd

I know, but if he fights that way with Cotto and Tszyu he can lose even though I think he can beat Cotto fighting that way. Tszyu on the other hand is a different monster.
He needs to be exciting because that's where the money is at. Mayweather needs some big PPV fights or else he will be like Whitaker not making the big bucks but being great and boring.
borikua 01-19-2005, 04:05 PM Bruseles by tko/ko!!! 2005 upset of the year!!!
dansweeney 01-19-2005, 04:31 PM Yeah, a undefeated #4# champ is a quitter. Cotto hasn faught anyone to be even comparing him to Floyd
he's had one fight at 140, he isnt proven there, mosley was 32-0 at light weight, cotto is too much man for him, cotto savage 8th round kayo after putting a beating on floyd
LittleBigMan 01-19-2005, 04:55 PM Mayweather will knock him out
Clay AikSkins 01-19-2005, 05:03 PM If Cotto will actually weigh 140 and not 155 at the time of the fight Floyd wins easily. If Cotto is gonna be a jr middleweight at the time the bell rings though....of course Cotto wins.
Miguel Cotto X 23 01-19-2005, 07:01 PM Henry will KO Mayweather.
Floydmayweather 01-19-2005, 07:15 PM I think everyone is jumping the gum a little. First off Floyds spedd and reflexes will give Cotto alot of trouble and Floyd just does not get tired. Also, agiainst Corley Floyd kind of brawled and was hit with some big punches but he said" he was fine and i believe he was. This kid brusells looks alright but he going down. Cotto Vs Floyd will be great after PBF works Gatti.
The Fix 01-19-2005, 07:19 PM i think cotto will get his ass handed to him by pbf. pbf is just to damn skilled. pbf is a complete fighter and will be p4p best once hopkins losses or leaves
jabsRstiff 01-20-2005, 07:43 AM I can't believe what I'm seeing..
How stunning ?
The guys with Puerto Rican handles & avatars....are picking Bruseles to win.
Woulda never thunk it !
Besides geographical loyalties...I want you guys picking your boy to win....to explain how this JOURNEYMAN beats one of the best, most skilled fighters on the planet.
enegue 01-20-2005, 08:08 AM We haven't seen what Cotto can do when he faces someone worthy. Can Cotto take a punch as good as he can give it. Mayweather would be too fast and elusive for Cotto.
PBF may be fast but there's always that possibility that Cotto will be able to hit him. We can only speculate...
enegue 01-20-2005, 08:15 AM Mayweather will knock him out
If you were referring to Cotto, well, I strongly believe that little Floyd doesn't have the power to knock out Cotto. :p
jabsRstiff 01-20-2005, 08:22 AM There's a possibility in every fight between two guys, that one will hit the other.
The same POSSIBILITY exists when it's a big puncher trying to hit a slickster.
The problem is that the big puncher can't get to the slickster with his big stuff, so he has to resort to taking steam off his shots in order to just make contact.
Being a big puncher doesn't help you much when you're facing Floyd.
There is no better two-fisted puncher in the sport than Diego Corrales, & Floyd rendered his power useless.
We had also heard that Phillip Ndou was some kind of massive slugger....but he didn't look like it against Floyd....& that's because Floyd made Ndou resort to trying to land SOMETHING/ANYTHING, which kept Ndou from committing to his shots.
enegue 01-20-2005, 08:23 AM i think cotto will get his ass handed to him by pbf. pbf is just to damn skilled. pbf is a complete fighter and will be p4p best once hopkins losses or leaves
But based on his recent fights, he's not that so effective at 140 as compared to his performance at the lower weight. :p
deuce_drop 01-20-2005, 11:19 AM floyd takes this one. if henry trys throwing those uppercuts from the outside, like in the video, floyd is gonna zap him with shots all night. i wanna see floyd tested and pushed to the extreme but, henry doesn't look like he's got the goods... we'll see, i hope he comes out gunning. but i think floyd, with outside distractions and all, is going to out class him and take the fight...... agree or disagree, henry is outclassed!

How can you guys keep sayin that? Stop hatin just because you dont like him. The guy dominated N'Dou in the fight before that and then had 1 fight at 140 against one of the top guys and won every round and dropped him twice. So if he didnt KO him. Chop's never been KO. Floyd doesnt get enough credit for that win. Chop is one of the top guys out there. There's nothing wrong with losing to Floyd and Judah. How many of the guys wouldve beaten them? Chop stunned Floyd because he was a leftie who caught Floyd while he was swinging.

I'm not picking Henry to win, I'm just saying it's going to be a closer fight than people think. I'm still picking Floyd but Henry is no pushover, either. Soooo many people are expecting a blowout and I think they are going to be surprised.
I guess we'll see on Saturday.
jabsRstiff 01-20-2005, 12:46 PM I don't expect a blowout....more like a whitewash.
Floyd doesn't blow people away. But, he'll render Henry useless from the get go....pick him apart....beat him down....& TKO him in the 7th.

I'm expecting a blowout. I mean, this is floyd's first fight at this weight, so he purposely picked an easier fighter to warm up and get used to. Bruseles isn't gonna be any problem for him, but later when he goes against tougher competition floyd is gonna have to figure out what to do different in this division.

This is Floyd's second fight at 140
Powerpunch4u 01-20-2005, 09:34 PM The way PBF is living his life, I think that all his fights from now on are unpredictable. He might say he feels stronger at a higher weight but he doesn't show it. The real reason Floyd is moving up in weight is because he doesn't train as hard anymore and is always partying. Anyone who has ever been an athlete knows that you can't party and stay fit at the same time. I can see Floyd training less and less just relying on his skills til his weak is exposed by an upset KO just like Roy Jones.
Bruseles has what it takes to KO pretty girl Floyd.
Thats my call.

Stop hatin because you dont know what your talkin about. Any expert will tell you that Floyd get's into stuff between fights but when he goes to camp he is all business. Maybe the most buisness like fighter out there. Even all of his sparring partners have said that Floyd doesnt mess around and he comes to the gym to work and work hard. Your last sentence shows that you just dont like him but you dont have to make up **** like you know what your talking about. He is always in top shape

People asked for it when I posted the Bruseles vid so here is the other half. Enjoy.
BTW, the vid is sick! Floyd is one fast mofo.

it's too early for mayweather to fall, he's not even up there yet. I hope he makes it.

hell, a fighter would sign with his blood for being "exposed" that way
