Catch it with the left or parry it ... if set up with a jab then catch jab and slide slightly out of the crosses range ... it really all depends on alot of variables i.e. set up, power , speed , distance ,angle ect
. With it being a right slipping is always a great option
Sometimes, I switch to normal stance (orthodox)...to bait the right cross.
I usually put up my left shoulder a bit, and block with my right hand by holding the glove next to my left shoulder.
Make sure to angle off properly.....It's not exactly a shoulder roll, but the punch lands on your left shoulder with your right glove pinned up to make sure its blocked:fing02:
I would not advise blocking if you can roll it or slip it.
Lmfao stop it! I'm not even mad, I'm embarrassed. The sport I love so much is a joke and not even a real sport anymore.
I think the only people mad are the " Lara will KO Canelo late in the fight, prolly around round 10 since Canelo always gasses out ."
I feel for Lara though. No hate for him at all.
Excellent point.
Did you notice the contrasting attitudes of the respective corners after the fight? I thought it was telling. IMO, Canelo and his corner looked far less confident and more defeated, in comparison to Lara and his team.
Are you guys kidding? Canelo was never even hurt or wobbled, even Floyd "pillow-fisted" Mayweather did a better job than Lara. And people said he Ran the whole night. Mayweather did WAY better than Lara.
Don't get me wrong, I love the sweet science. But last night was a ***** performance at best, Have some balls....This isn't the amateurs...
Probably should make the ring smaller, so this kind of **** doesn't happen. What a waste of time this fight was smh :boxing:
I knew all the Lara nutthuggers would be crying after this fight:bottle::bottle::bottle:..How can you expect to win a fight versus an A-fighter while not engaging the whole night? I understand using footwork, and keeping out of harms way, but damn...he was so inactive at times, he was literally just running not to get hit. He wasn't using his footwork to setup combinations/counters as much as he should have.
I guess lara got his payday, and will disappear back into Cuban boxing School.
All that **** talking..rofl. "I pick guys like Canelo apart." Yeah if you threw more punches maybe .
Those two shouldn't be in the same sentence man, Rigondeaux can be boring but he sets up counters much faster than Lara and he has variety, Lara probably doesn't know what variety is.
Rigondeaux is def. more exciting to watch, even though he uses footwork alot. He's a different breed though....
GGG in a paradox.... nobody he beats is good enough despite accomplishments or position in the division, but he doesn't fight anybody good enough.
Yeah, I would love to see GGG vs Cotto. I'm pretty sure Cotto will try to fight someone easier before going for GGG
The funny thing is, all the people who think Chris is a huge threat, will be the same ones who will crush him and turn their backs after losing to Pac. One day he's terminator and the next day he's only fought bums.
The facts : Pac is looking fast. Still has good pop. Seems Motivated. Roach already worked on cornering, and cutting off the ring. Pac is supposed to come out fast, Team Pacquiao doesn't want Chris getting confidence or getting comfortable.
Chris seems in good shape. Face looks gaunt though. Didn't make 144. He's supposed to be in tremendous condition, We'll see
Prediction : Pacquiao comes out blazing, scores a knockdown in the first few rounds. Chris comes back, Boxes enough to survive a few more rounds. Pac then puts him away late rounds near the 8th
I mean, what is the downside? He makes a hundred million, cements his legacy and does it at personal risk to himself.
The Downside? Besides getting his ass beat in front of the whole world after talking **** for 4+ years?
" Nah man, Pacquiao's gloves have no padding....." I can already see it now
Nice interview. I have a feeling 50 is taking a stabbin at floyd not making the Pacquiao fight happen.
Now, I'm not sure about Floyd's finances, but 50 cent is his friend, I'm sure he sees things that the public doesn't.
If floyd is really spending all his cash as fast as he makes it, that's a bad move.
But whatever, that's his problem, his life, etc etc.....
50 cent is very nice though, I'm sure he's just tired of the BS.
I'm sure they hide the strategies...but come fight night, some things will work, some won't.
So, you gotta have plan a, plan b...all the way to plan Z.
Also, you have to be able to switch styles if things aren't working.
For pacquiao he will be picking pacs trainers and diet. This dude is scared of maidanas power
I heard a rumor..Don't know if its true but it's looking like it. The reason Mayweather asked Pac for the blood test was because Pac mentioned he didn't feel 100% for 1-3 days after giving blood (who knows how much.)
Mayweather figured Pac's weakness and tried to use it for his advantage. He's constantly looking for the upper-hand.
And this guy is suppose to be the face of boxing :killyou:
It's because of these antics , floyd will have forever created room for critics to come and pick at his accomplishments.. always giving himself hefty advantages , the public will never warm to it. How can they lol SMH
Just think of the Ortiz fight. Oh man that was either paid off, set up or just plain bs. I remember paying for that fight then watching that...:peeright:
No hate though, just pointing out some useless fights
I love how Floyd fan boys automatically go for the personal life of this man. Let's stick to boxing shall we? What does it matter? All that matters is what happens in the ring on fight night.
Everything else is crap.
He stopped short of landing a right hook on him at the of the 4th, I think. Looked at him and smiled too. Right before the bell. He controlled this fight. Anybody that sees otherwise is Blinded by hatred.
You can find my post, I said Golovkin would draw out this fight to test his stamina. That's exactly what he did. Drew it out but destroyed Murray.
People be like "May will still win against Pac"
Pac will not go to 147 anymore unless it's worth it, as he said it himself. So now Floyd might have another excuse to duck him

Floyd will RAPE Pacquiao and knock him out cold before round 8.
Are you serious bro? Tim Bradley landed a right hand on pac and lifted him off the canvas and still couldn't drop him
Just admit that Pac will absolutely pick apart Mayweather if he fights like that again. Adjustments? What Adjustments? Holding more, elbowing, crying to ref, low blows, complained about his hand (Time will still running if no one noticed) May kept looking at the clock, He's good at wasting time. No hate on him at all, I'm a big fan but just tired of the same old show.
Even a past prime Pac can give Kenweather some trouble :boxing:

Besides making more money than either can dream of?
Floyd could lose his "0" which is really just his ego & pride. Even the Greats lost a bout, I don't understand where his mentality comes from. Some nights you have a bad night and lose a fight, it happens.
If Floyd gets dropped, the number of memes & online blowback will be huge.
If you guys saw the post fight press conference after Pac vs CA, everyone was literally laughing at Floyd. Making a joke out of him, and his so called undefeated record.
Manny, even if he loses, will continue to be regarded as one of the best in the world. If he wins, *****s will make excuses like always. "He's old doe. He didn't move like usual. His legs are gone"
Manny will be getting schooled by Floyd.....he cant hurt anyone and got himself KTFO .
Didn't pac break JMM's nose, and wobbled him several times before running into that telephone pole right hand?
Manny will be doing the schooling this time around, Floyd still think he's the wild brawler, he's got something else coming
IF floyd accepts, he will do it on his "terms".
Which means, more bull****, He picks Pac's gloves.
50 ft ring, so he can move around better
The day before the fight, when they look at pacquiao's gloves.." ITS GOT NO PADDING."
Same ****, different day
Are you serious? Manny wanted a rematch and JMM declined. He doesn't want to lose the luster of the KO. That's because Manny would go crazy to get him back. JMM had a broken nose and was close to being KO'd before he landed that short right hand.
If Manny is so easy, Floyd should fight him, Whoop his ass and everyone will shutup right? Oh, that's right, it won't be that easy
Yes, that 25 second clip convinced me.
lmao, The point is, Floyd has a different style. He puts his shoulder up and tries to roll/deflect shots while Timothy literally ducks his whole upperbody to avoid them. We can only conclude that Pacquiao's style would be a problem for this version of Mayweather
Floyd Mayweather - 2 Fighter of the year awards, 5 belts
Manny Pacquiao - 3 Fighter of the Year Awards, Fighter of the Decade, and 8 Belts.
Yes, Pacquiao has losses, but he also will go down in history as an ATG
