    Which fighters could make adjustments during fights?

    I can think of

    JMM:
    During his first fight with Pac, he started to use upper body movement to slip Pac's straight left
    Calzaghe:
    He changed his fight strategy against Hopkins and decided to outwork him instead of outboxing him.
    Mayweather:
    During the Corley fight he stopped using the shoulder roll defence and started using the high guard defence instead.

    Can anyone tell me anymore?

    Pavlik:
    During the Martinez fight he started to parry Martinez's straight left (I think)

      Pacquiao in the Cotto fight.

      He lost round one, changed his tactics and won the rest of the fight.

              True. I remember him making adjustements in the Hatton, Corley, Judah and Mosley fights.

                Hopkins/Tarver

                Hopkins/Echols

                That's just off the top of the dome...

                    Some people say that Pac, deliberately gave that round away so that Cotto would commit to his jab more, i.e the more he uses his jab the less he can use it to throw left hooks. I need to watch that fight again before I can comment, can you think of another fight?
