    to outcounterpunch a counter puncher, make them bite on fake counter opportunities by using feints or half assed easy to restract punches to lure their fire, and then counter their counters.
    Much like with what Judah did to Mayweather, he'd fake a jab, Floyd would quickly react, and before you knew it Mayweather was eating Judah's straight left hand.

      exactly.

      which is why Mayweather decided it was more effective to simply erase Judahs countering with a high guard and pressure.
      which was a smart move.

        mix it up, dont fight predictably, fight inside, outside, switch up your lead hand, stagger your punches, go high and low, use volume, be defensive.

        pretty much don't do the same thing for more than about 30 seconds, just keep changing and confuse them

          You can force them to take the lead which can make them very uncomfortable, kind of what Jimmy Young did to Ali or Mayweather did to Marquez (but this can only be effective if you are an excellent technician). Or you can swarm them, take away their jab like what Vazquez did to Marquez or what Tyson and Frazier did to their opponents (not sure if this would work with JMM). Also, lots of feints can definitely frustrate counterpunchers since that makes them over commit and you can then counterpunch them. Or try to get inside and rough them up, like what Roberto Duran and Andre Ward does.

            I forgot about that, Young got robbed in that fight, Ali was clueless as to what to do
