How do you beat a Counter Puncher?

[{BrownBomber}]

On the contrary, it looks to me that it was JMM who got exposed. First knockdown, he tasted the power of Pacman's left. Second KD it is still the same left. Third KD, the same ****in' left. Committing the same mistake three times is ******.

WELL PEOPLE ONLY HAVE ONE LEFT HAND, AND THE WAY JMM FOUGHT AFTER THE FIRST ROUND TELLS THAT HE WAS JUST SURPRISED IN THE FIRST. TELL ME IF ANYONE ELSE WOULD OF GOTTEN UP AND SCHOOLED MANNY LIKE MARQUEZ, HE IS A VERY INTELLEGENT BOXER. IN NO WAY IS HE ******. THE REMATCH WILL PROVE MANY THINGS THAT I HAVE SAID.

LOL You're so sure of Marquez in the rematch I'd hate to see you get disappointed in Feb.

u need 2 work behind a good jab

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.

just today i sparred with my friend first round we went slugging and i would win the exchange but when he started to counter punch i couldn't do anything but thing that worked the best was at least 3 - 4 punch combinations all straights. since the counter puncher looks for an opening after a punch he can't do it when there are so many swarming him .

alot of feints

Mix up your jabs and feints, throw combinations. Let them lead(for example: MAB vs Naz).

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.

punch him harder than he punches you
