how is donaire`s ko shot different to martinez`s?

[RoyalFlush]

both came from a blind spot with a massive left hook and both were bone crushing. i`m wondering if there is a striking difference with regards to foot position and setting-up prior to the execution. share your thoughts.

donaire's was a left hook... sergio's was a straight left/left cross...

[Tamis!]

Martinez's straight left was like a "cry to the heavens and hope it lands" shot.

Donaire seemed to know what he was doing when he landed that left hook.

Martinez shot was very different compared to Donaire.
Donaire shot is a counter left hook. The timing was beauty to behold though and it came full power from the hip.
SM shot is very hard to categorize if a hook/straight. He changed the trajectory midshot.

Both great shot but definitely different. Not many can pull off the Serg shot.

Donaire's shot was from hook over Montiel's right hand. But Pwill run into the left straight wrecklessly. It's much more difficult to defend against Nonito's hook than SM's straight left. Martinez saw Paul running at him and threw his left hand. Nonito's hook was calculated precisely.

Martinez was landing that straight left the whole fight, and it was always landing. He knew when and where to throw it, no luck about it.

The major difference i see, besides that Martinez's shot put William's to sleep, is that people weren't expecting it.

No one knew what to expect with the Donaire/Montiel fight, Martinez and Williams had already been in a 12 round hard fought battle, nobody expected a KO that quickly.

Nah. Sergio's shot was not lucky. If you count the Ohhhsss and Aahhhss of the crowd, that would tell you how many of those type of shots Sergio landed. Very few can changed the trajectory mid-air .... pac and tszyu I think. Which is why their shots are very hard to categorize.

judging also from their position when they did the shot, martinez was more like he was along the diagonal direction of pwill while that of donaire was more forward head-on. but i should say also that both montiel and pwill were coming forward and thus momentum making the shots more deadly. did donaire and martinez both sat on their shots? i say yes also.

Martinez is finished, for now at least. His demise is upon us, Sergei shall prove this.
