I was just curious about this. Many say Manny was 1 dimensional in the fight vs Marquez. Though ok, what else could he have done? Counter punch as well? That would be quite a boring match. In that case, what do you do to someone that doesn't punch unless you punch (aka *******)? What if Marquez and lets say Barrera went at it. Who would you choose as the winner? I also think Manny's plan to beat Marquez by just using all out power was the best way to beat a counter puncher had it worked. I dunno what else he could have done.
How do you beat a Counter Puncher?

Pacquiao-Barrera was the blueprint. Remember that MAB is an excellent counterpuncher as well, but it was obvious that Pac's blurring combos were giving him some problems. The whole fussilade. I remember Freddie Roach urging Pac to throw combinations in the middle rounds vs. JMM, but he never did.
Volume punching, i guess.Comment

Quick 1-2 combos, just like rd.9 Johnson-RJones Jr., rd.3 Pacquiao-Barrera, rd.1 Pacquiao-JMMarquezComment

but if your good at countering yourself
then you might want to try to make him be aggressiv there by taken him out of his game plan
and if all else fails

For real...I haven't been seriously hit in the nuts in about 3 years until about a week ago when I was drunk with my buddies and one of my friends threw a football that I wasn't expecting and it hit me flush. I was down for the count for about 15 minutes.
To answer the question I think swarmers do well against counter punchers. I guess anyone with a good chin and high work rate would do well against them...or someone who fights well inside and can smother their opponents punches. Picking your spots and making them count also helps.Comment
