    is PBF the ONLY boxer to adapt to an opponent...

    We know his fights can be long and boring, but i appreciate that he is analysing his opponent for the first few rounds and adapts his attack to suit (from what i've seen)

    Now...call me stooooopid, but shouldn't every decent boxer be doing this, instead of doing EXACTLY wat their trainer has said..

    In other words is PBF the only intelligent boxer out there and thinks for himself in the ring??? Can anyone name other fighters?

    is this a joke? or do you sincerely believe that he is the only one with that ability? do you only watch his fights??

      Joe Calzaghe done it better.

      vs Kessler the perfect example.

        Ivan Calderon is the lighter version of PBF, he's a tad smoother though. He has his opponents figured out after the 2-3rd rounds and then they are just frustrated from then on

              Most decent fighters adapt to the fight while in the ring. Usually, the ones that don't are the one dimensional fighters who are screwed if plan A doesn't work.

                  Calzaghe gets my vote.
