Comments Thread For: Richardson Hitchins: "I Know I Gotta Be More Exciting"

he almost as exciting as Andrade

[Combat Talk Radio]

There were flashes of excitement in his performance.

The problem with guys with skills & style like Hitchins is that they play it safe for too much of the fight. Zepeda looked utterly defeated by the 5th round. By the 9th he looked ready to go. He could have or should have stepped on the gas, walked Zepeda down & forced the stoppage

His corner was telling him to press harder & instead kept playing it safe & walking backwards. I 100% agree with “hit & don’t get hit”. But there comes a point where youre completely outclassing a guy who can’t hit you and you need to hit him MORE.

It's really this simple, yes.

We actually said the same thing to O'Shaquie Foster a bit ago. Put a stamp on it.

That's the reason we always refer people to watch Mayweather vs. Jesus 'El Matador' Chavez as our favorite Floyd fight. Because by the time each round was done, Floyd left no doubt who the better fighter was, despite Chavez constantly trying.
