You know, in about the third round at least two guys in the corner were telling me to urge Matt on because he was losing...but u know what? Ndou was POWERFUL, we knew that going in, and Matt wasn't loose yet, wasnt fully sure of himself very early on and I knew it would take time to settle in.There are certain guys you dont rush things against when u aren't fully ready and Emmanuel is one of those guys. 12 rounds is a LONG time in there, man, no big hurry. Matt started to loosen up towards the end of the third and that was the beginning of the end. That's why I didnt get too urgent in the corner too early, because I would have been wrong to send Matt out like gangbusters when the guy was still obviously very dangerous. With a lot of rounds still left to go like that, you have to take your time and make big moves when you are ready! -
