    I believe most battle plans are conjured stories created after the fact.

    This belief that some of these fighters were so magnificent, that they held such mastery over their opponents and could dictate the fight, as suggested above, is fanciful.

    I'm sure SRR had all kinds of things to say post fight about how he 'did this' and how he 'did that,' but the reality, for every round in a competive fight, is an act of crisis management.

    That is until it's over, then all the susposed battle plans roll off their tongue and their fans buy the bs.

    P.S. I guess I should have just quoted Mike Tyson, he said it best.

      Would make a great book - The World According to Mike Tyson. Followed up with a cookbook: Collard Greens and Small Children.

        Most was the correct word to use. We could certainly not put Wilder/Fury 2 into that category. That strategy was developed in camp, I believe.
