    Second Amateur fight - need tips on being pressures

    I won my first fight, I applied the pressure. But for this fight the guy was bigger and had more endurance to keep throwing and cominb forward. He was very wild but his pressure got him the win. My problem is footwork I dont ever try to move cause I dont have great footwork and havent worked on it much.

    Im in red corner. Tell me what you think, any pointers would be great.

    Stepping to his right would have helped slow his high slapping workrate for sure.

    Your style is more suited to a pro fight apart from you aren't good enough.

    Your jab looks good but the right is predictable. Use more shots and move,

    Footwork is actually the main thing in boxing, you generate power, and set up shots and it is part of all offense and defense.

          Well, amateurs is a pointing system and outworking is the key and landing clean shots.

          From what I saw, you set up your jab and tried to stay calm control him with it.

          Very rarely would you get a wild ass fighter in the pro's like that who makes it. Simply put, no head gear would make anyone learn to respect shots.

          He didn't have respect for getting hit and simply just outworked you. Don't get me wrong, you did the same thing also at times by going wild, but at least you had composure.

          Placing you shots and timing is a good start along with footwork.

              A straight right hand has always been the best punch i think to keep somebody at distance respecting you. Alot of people cant throw it without a jab first though it seems weird to some people but thats how hopkins kept and punished people at bay. But if your going to want to be a boxer you definitely should change your attitude about footwork. Its a boxers best friend even if you are a pressure fighter to cut somebody off.

                Can you clarify who you are in the video again?

                Red corner or you in red?

                Also, the pressure?

                Take a step sideways/lateral let him move forward and catch him with a hook like how Cotto just did to Margarito or Pacquiao against Margarito.

                And if he stops moving forward when you moved sideways/lateral throw your dominant straight at his head or body.

                Brian Viloria did it against Giovanni Segura. Or Marquez moving in circles catching Pacquiao in his traps.

                Deliver some uppercuts and that guy would have stopped pressuring you and start respecting your power.

                  Yes. The unpredictable Hopkins power punch that doesn't seem that powerful, but is. I'll get Popkins to explain it. It's unpredictable. "It's the speed that kills, it ain't the boom".
