You're not punching enough with your legs and hips like with the left hook. You're not shifting your weight when you're throwing the left hook, you need to distribute the weight to the right side of your body and plant your right foot. Also, when you throw the left hook, you have a habit of sometimes lifting your right elbow.
One more thing is that when you're punching to the body your right hand is also lowering, make sure to keep the right hand up. What i think is most important is what terrible said though, you need to throw higher, more extended and fully turned jabs.
This is the best fight out there for GGG. I think Kirkland has a good chance at the upset as well. Kirkland is like a more powerful version of ouma and we know how well ouma did against GGG. GGG can't fight backing up and kirkland is strong as hell. Robert garcia who sparred with both GGG and kirkland says kirkland was stronger and said it would be a toss up if they both fight.
edwin was hurt in round 11. He was holding constantly to get his legs back, it was pretty obvious. Andre has good enough power to make people respect and not walk right through him, he's not a KO artist though.
I just saw the fight and honestly,mercito lost and got out-hustled. At best it was a draw for mercito cause he was showboating way to much. I'm really disappointed in his performance. His poor cardio really showed this time. If he can perform like he did in the 7th round throughout the whole fight, only then can i see him competing with Rios but for now, he shouldn't even mention his name.
The guy needs to cool his head and get his ego in check. Way too much disrespect shown there and waited too long to let the punches go. Watching the fight had me so frustrated, because i know gesta could do a lot better.
Anyways,he needs better cardio and less people telling him he's like manny pacquiao cause he's nowhere close.
That was indeed a struggle for someone who was a 25-1 favourite, his face got marked up worse than it ever has been. Lomachenko got pushed around and he got touched easily especially by the jab. Lomachenko has paper skin, Pedraza isn’t even a puncher and he cut him up.
vitaly also landed a couple of left hooks. He also landed a few the jabs though most were blocked it was a competitive round. It wasn't as if solis was dominating you can tell he felt vitaly's power early on when he landed the first left hook. This is just from what i remember on my first viewing though, so i could be wrong.
I don't get where all the gesta hate comes from, benavidez can bang, and gesta is taking his shots easily. You guys need to watch round 6 where gesta hurts benavidez with a right hand. Honestly, you can tell gesta is just trying to pick his shots, not only that but he's picking off a lot of what benavidez throws. Benavidez is landing a lot of clean body blows though, gotta give him credit for that.
Lamont peterson would make it a better fight than his brother, thats what i think. I'm going to vote peterson, even though my head says rios. I just think an older brother would want to avenge his younger brother and lamont has a lot of heart and determination. He's also a better boxer and is more level headed. I think he'll hurt rios' body real bad if they in fight.
Both were impressive but i'd rather have donaire's KO on my resume. Montiel spazzing over a fatigued Acosta. Acosta wasn't out you can see him trying to get up it's just that his left eye was swollen so it looked like he was sleeping. His corner jumped in to stop the fight though so he was basically done.
I agree with the 8-10rds, I think going 8-10 tuff rds with Kirkland would prepare anyone as much as they can for ggg considering theres no orthdox MW fighter with the right hand power of GGG besides Kirkland. But their styles do differ, GGG is more selective/accurate with his punches and waste less than James does making GGG scarier imo...
That's true GGG is more accurate and is a better technician than Kirkland. He also has more physical gifts than kirkland in that he is taller and better chin. The reason i think james is scarier is because james has a mean streak. In that he won't show mercy. It's as if he gets a pleasure from someone's pain. He's relentless and someone who has sparred both golovkin and kirkland has said kirkland in terms of physical strength was stronger than golovkin. Golovkin fights honorably but james is like a rabid beast. That's the only reason i think kirkland is scarier, it's just subjective.
I think if canelo fights kirkland for 8-10 rounds and then knocks kirkland out that would be great prep for golovkin. I actually think kirklands pressure is scarier than golovkins. In my opinion kirkland is more relentless and savage so if canelo can withstand kirklands pressure i'm pretty sure he can do the same with golovkin.
it would be a good fight, not an easy fight for either fighter. At 126 i favor walters though, rigondeaux is too small and i don't think he'll be able to deal with walters reach. Donaire was able to land 13% of his jabs on rigondeaux, against walters he could only land 7%. Walters defense is also underrated. Against Walters, Donaire was only able to land 24% of his shots, against rigondeaux he was able to land 23%. I also think Walters is tougher than Rigondeaux.
Your an idiot, I was screaming for Nonito to win, but even I knew that Montiel was doing OK in the second. Im not saying he won the round, but he wasn't doing bad at all.. You dont know sh1t if you cant see that he was trying to time Nonito and he was measuring distance also. He still got hit and KTFO but dont come on hear talking shyte. He gave props to Nonito for kicking his azz so how can you hate on him for that?
I like montiel, but he's taking credit away from nonito's win. Him saying that he was dominating the 2nd round is an over statement. Montiel couldn't handle donaire's speed or power despite being 8 pounds heavier coming in. If he was fully accepting the loss he would be looking for the mistakes he made instead of looking for his successes. Even though montiel was landing more in the 2nd, most of the punches were a jab. Everything else besides a left uppercut were glancing shots. Donaire however landed clean whenever he connected and he landed a variety of power shots.
Vic deserves the fight, its like he said, he gave nonito the opportunity so donaire's just doing the same. Vic has never ducked anyone and gave everyone a fair crack at him. Screw rigondeaux, the guy thinks he's a superstar even though the guy looks like crap and has no following. For all the crap he talked he still hasn't backed up shiet. I honestly hope he gets beat his next fight so we never hear about him again.
Doesn't matter how many shots Wladimir missed. The ones that matter are the ones he did land. Saying Haye out-landed Wladimir? Come on... With that said, yes, Haye might have caught Wladimir a few more times with those big shots. On the flip side of that, Wladimir would have had more opportunities to catch Haye. Again, I think rematch would be nice, with both truly at 100%. Haye didn't seem too happy about ending his career like that...
Okay, i probably overexaggerated with hayes performance but Wladimir missing his shots is a big deal, especially to wlad. On the hbo broadcast that was the first thing he mentioned when larry interviewd him. He said david haye is REALLY hard to hit.
Now wlad did out land haye but what im getting at is that most of them were jabs. Haye actually landed more power shots according to compubox. I do agree that haye didn't look satisfied with his performance though.
Lomachenko just straight up disrespected Pacquiao, he said he wanted to carve his own path, that’s bogus.
The guy straight up ducked Pacquiao because the risk wasn’t worth the reward.
They know how good pacquiao is and they weren’t confident they’d be able to dominate pacquiao and there was a good chance they’d lose. If they didn’t lose,they would’ve looked bad winning.
Pacquiao would touch Lomachenko up and everyone knows how dangerous pacquiao is. Especially at the lower weights where they may have met at a catch weight.
So the main reasons lomachenko didn’t fight pacquiao was first he could get KO’d or lose and everyone would say he’s a hypejob, second he could beat pacquiao but he knows it wouldn’t be easy and everyone would say he struggles with an old pacquiao and his stock further drops.
Lomachenko thinks he can trick the public by saying he didn’t want to dominate an old pacquiao and disrespect him, what a lie your whole persona is based off you dominating and clowning people. Be real and admit that you knew pacquaio would put up a helluva fight and make you look bad.
So they can test for even a shorter period of time than rigo would have ? April 13th is "his date ". Or even better he won't hold them to taking any test at all
Next time rigo should just keep his mouth shut and not shoot himself in the head with his statements. If he really felt like testing wasn't a big deal then he should stop stalling and get it over with. None of donaire's opponents are subjecting themselves to testing other than darchinyan so donaire has no reason to call them out on it.
How dare he skip training for a fight because he has the flu! He should be in the gym at all times regardless of his condition so he can please fans like you by risking his life in the boxing ring.:chairshot
He put on a lot of weight because of various events and christmas, it wasn't just the flu. After the donaire fight he said monday he's gonna be back in the gym training but the truth is he just partied after the fight. He can live his life however he wants, but if he's as truly dedicated to boxing as he says he is, he wouldn't let the foundation he built crumble so easily. I'm just saying its not a good sign and i can see his hunger for boxing already starting to fade.
You dont have to take nothing because there is nothing to gain. Lomachenko has stated repeated that he is carving his own path and that he will stay at 135 because he is small at 135 and that's the truth.
He is small at 135. There is nothing to gain from fighting pac when hes 40 years old and has been fighting at 147 for the better half of a decade.
Do you think Holmes vs Ali was a great fight?
Did Lennox gain anything against tyson?
Do you want to see pac drain down for this fight? Pac vs DLH wasnt even a good fight because oscar looked like he was dead and didnt didnt display anything that made him the boxer he was.
There are tons of fights with faded stars that dont live up to the hype.
You should quit making up your own rules for real. Lomachenko is choosing to not fight Pacquiao because the fight means nothing to him. His time has come and gone. Passing the torch. Lmfao. When pac lost to horn did he pass him the torch? When pac didnt want Crawford did he want to pass the torch?
Quit making up bull****
Lomachenko said it himself he didn't want to disrespect a legend,and that right there is disrespect in itself. You mention all these fights but none of those fighters regretted their decision to fight those legends. Lewis always brags about the Tyson fight and Holmes brags about taking the money fight because he knew he can dominate. Also at the time those fights were announced you can't say that the fight didn't develop any intrigue.
The intrigue in Pacquiao and lomachenko is that they both match up well stylistically,and are both considered pound for pound at their eras.
Whether or not Pacquiao has nothing left is not up to you or Lomachenko to decide. It's Pacman who decides whether he wants to stop fighting and anyone who truly respects a fighter wouldn't call them old and washed up especially when the fighter themselves don't believe that. Or if they do believe they are old and washed up then accept the fight and then use it to build up the fight like what he did with Rigondeaux.
Lomachenko fought for Salido's title which became vacant and lost the fight, his very next fight, he fought for the same title, equal opportunity is equal, if they pull out the red carpet for Loma, they should be able to do it for others.
Ever since dude became a real pro, he has been shown too much love, what about the other contenders who were behind him when he lost to Salido, I guess they didn't matter.
I fully agree with this.
Rigo wants vada and usada to make it an even play field did u guys even watch the press conference. Donaire doesn't want usada involved. rigo wants both associations, so seeming how they were pressuring rigo he signed but domaire didn't... In my eyes Donaire doesn't want none of rigo... Where were his excuses on the arce fight???
what are you talking about, donaire agreed to that. He only objected when rigo proposed that they use only usada. How about explaining usada having no idea of this matter until after Rigo mentioned it at the press conference. If Rigo was serious, he would've contacted them prior to this, it's pretty obvious Rigo is dodging getting tested.
lol, didn't montiel say the same thing? something like i'm not sidorenko but then gets knocked out in half the time. Going by that i'm guessing Moreno gets KTFO in 1 round.
Maybe if pac was 35 but pac is over 40 now. It's not the same kind of fight.
Last time I checked he’s 39 but if they do fight he’ll be 40+ but let’s see how he does against broner. If he does better than how Mikey fought broner than there really is no excuse if they match at 135. If Broner beats Pacquiao then I’ll give Lomachenko more credit and take back what I said.
Just realized that Lomachenko had the opportunity last year to fight Pacquiao, so he would’ve been 39 when they fought.
Wtf are you talking about? How could one possibly accuse Rigo of delaying the signing when Donaire is the one who has NOT signed yet... this is beyond understanding lol
He's delaying the drug testing, if he didn't sign the papers, they can't go ahead and start the testing. That gives him enough time to cycle out whatever he's taking. Donaire can stall if he wants, he's the cash cow in this fight and he's already going through year round testing. So him not signing makes perfect sense.
Say he signs the contract and rigondeaux doesn't sign the vada testing contract. Then rigondeaux can dope himself all he wants which is just retarded. Donaire's risking his life and his career why would he sign first. He doesn't need rigondeaux, rigondeaux needs him.
Pull out, screw rigondeaux. He's a boring fighter with no fanbase and shows no class. Go with darchinyan, at least he'll fight and take tests with no problem.
He's not acting smug, he just doesn't want a high risk low reward fight. He said he'll fight him but would prefer gonzales and honestly they both bring the same to the table. Which is a belt. If he beats lomachenko then people wont even give him credit because lomachenko is still green. Salido beat him and no one even cares about that, they just make excuses for lomachenko.
