Flores has him doing some bad habits. Needless bouncing around is an amateur thing to do and was a big reason Jake gassed so fast. He was in front of a big crowd in his home town, sure, but he lost his legs on his own.
I used to train fighters after my competing days were over and the biggest mistake young green fighters make is unnecessary movements. It turns them into easy targets and they gas from posturing. Lateral movement is good, but needs to be calculated. Paul should be shuffling and sliding more, when the heat comes in, a step or two back and lateral out. he did do that a few times, but Flores was calling for him to bounce a lot.
Jake needs more feints and needs to stop throwing jabs to the body late in the fight. Time for body shots is over when you're 75% into deep waters. If they focused on his feet and 1-2 punches more, he would have stopped Tyron.
Flores was running his mouth during the interview too, shut the fcuk up guy and let the kid talk.
