Box that mofo, keep walking him down, ect. He doesn't tell Floyd the little things that you'd hear Nacho tells Marquez. It's very easy to say box this fighter, walk that fighter down, but if you aren't as good of a strategist as Floyd is when it comes to figuring out/limiting your opponents biggest weapons, then you're going to be in trouble.
Sometimes just a simple strategy advice can be the biggest key factor in a fight. Floyd makes Roger's job much more easier than it has to be. It's like having Chris Paul setting plays for your team, He's wise enough to figure some things out on his own.Last edited by Carpe Diem; 01-19-2012, 02:54 PM.Comment

Announcer Dude: Here we are in the Golpe a Golpe ring, the ring of Juan Manuel Marquez, ready to elaborate on what happened last Saturday in Canada- Bernard Hopkins at 46 years of age against the Haitian-Canadian Jean Pascal, a young fighter, very strong with all of the air in the world, who for all of his attributes just couldn't deal with Hopkins again!
JMM: Well, here in this fight we can see Hopkins brought out his experience, with the veteran expertise that he has in this sport, and I think that's what helped him so much. Oh and great physical conditioning as well.
Announcer Dude: What are you going to teach us?
JMM: Well, here what Hopkins did- you are Hopkins, and I'm Pascal- what Pascal would do is throw punches, throw several punches, but what Hopkins would do was cover himself with his shoulder and step out-
Announcer Dude: To move backward.
JMM: And so he would take away the punching angle from Pascal, covering himself- and from there, he would counter-punch with hooks, which came in perfectly onto Pascal. Pascal who would come in, throwing punches, without any real reasoning, and then suddenly receive the right hook (overhand right) of Hopkins.
Announcer Dude: It's intelligence, timing, rhythm, to dominate the beats is what Bernard Hopkins does.
JMM: That's right, I think that's a fundamental part that experience gives you in this sport, and I think he handles timing to perfection.
Announcer Dude: Jean Pascal made many errors throughout the length of the fight; he threw few combinations, and when he did, they were brief; he let himself be guided by trying to use brute force - he wanted to win the fight with one punch, Juan.
JMM: That can't be done in a fight, much less against an opponent like Hopkins, who has such great experience. When you have an opponent like Hopkins, when you throw three punches, with what he did in moving away, by then he's taken away all of your angle. You need to throw from four to five punches at a time to be able to get to Hopkins, throw four or five at a time, otherwise-
Announcer Dude: Overwhelm him.
JMM: Exactly, because if not, you won't be able to connect on him.
Announcer Dude: Hopkins began making extraordinary moves, bending at the waste to weave out and counter-punch, and they started to work, Juan.
JMM: That's right. What Hopkins has is, he's a fighter who defends himself well, who after he defends himself, counters-punches you perfectly. For example, he'll cover himself with the shoulders, throwing- and from there (announcer dude is leaning back) he whips out the right which the fighter-
Announcer Dude: With all of the torque.
JMM: With all of the movement of the waist, and movement of the shoulder, so as that the fighter doesn't expect that counter-punch.
Announcer Dude: And in addition he made time to do some push-ups, haha.
JMM: He had time to do some push-ups; let's see, you are Hopkins, let's see-
Announcer Dude: Haha, no no...listen, Juanito, 46 years old, there are no signs of him retiring, as he told us moments ago, but it's incredible the longevity, the athleticism of this man who foundationally bases his success on defense.
JMM: Yes, I think that's a fundamental part in this sport, to have a great defensive game to be able to last. You can decide to be a great defensive fighter and last a long time.
Great breakdown by JMM.Comment

Announcer Dude: Here we are in the Golpe a Golpe ring with Marco Antonio Barrera. So Marco, what's promised is Pacquiao VS Mayweather: what are we going to see?
MAB: Well, we're going to see how Pacquiao would advance/get inside, although he's not a fighter who places himself after finding an open path forward, and then goes; he's a fighter who can have any angle, who moves all the time-
Announcer Dude: Your stance...
MAB: My stance is southpaw.
Announcer Dude: Manny's.
MAB: Manny Pacquiao's. So he's here, he'll throw a couple from this angle, he'll move to make a lateral step (rotates left), then look for you there, and follow up...
Announcer Dude: Because Mayweather's defense is strange, as well, right Marco?
MAB: It's strange...very orthodox. You don't know where he's going to move (wiggles upper body.) When he moves with his shoulder...
Announcer Dude: His head back with his hand up...(leans backwards into philly shell)...
MAB: Manny's not going to be able to get him there. He'd have to take a lateral step (to the left), and look for him from this side (throws left), in order to hit him up top as well as downstairs, so that he's able to hit him.
Announcer Dude: Can we do that with a little bit more speed, Marco, to see better?
MAB: Yes, to more or less see. He's here jabbing (on the outside), then he makes a lateral step, gets shots in, and keeps his hands moving; and Pacquiao's always moving (bobs side to side.)
Announcer Dude: And careful with this one from Floyd, right (throws jab) ?
MAB: Yes, careful; he should come in like this (weaves under jab while advancing & opponent leans backward), get close, and look to land below and up top. Although it will be difficult and complicated because of the weight (moves hands upwards to indicate "height") and the left hand of Mayweather, which is very fast.
Announcer Dude: So how does Floyd counter that?
MAB: Well, here we are, me being right-handed; use his jab, which we said was very fast: (jabs while rotating left) boom, boom...
Announcer Dude: To Manny's right...
MAB: To Manny's right, counter-clockwise, so he doesn't find that, that cross which is very dangerous. And on top of being able to land his jab, he'll be able to get him downstairs (throws left to body.)
Announcer Dude: The feet are...the key.
MAB: The feet will be important. The movement, to be moving your waist, the lateral movements, always moving this way (left) to avoid Manny Pacquiao's finisher (cross).
Announcer Dude: Manny has the foot-speed.
MAB: Yes.
Announcer Dude: Who has the hand-speed, Marco?
MAB: I think that Manny as well, but you have to take into account that precise jab Mayweather has...boom, boom...and if Cotto landed it, who was able to keep him at a distance and hit him well within the 12 rounds-
Announcer Dude: That's a good point.
MAB: -then, he'll could able to control him and find success from that side.
Announcer Dude: We saw an image against Juan Manuel Marquez, in which Floyd will duck down, and throw this (straight right hand), Marco. He gets out, but after getting his shot in.
MAB: But that may be a point, because if he ducks down like that, Manny is a professional in throwing uppercuts. There are various layers which we will be elaborating on as time goes on. We'll be analyzing videos and, well, searching.
Announcer Dude: Searching for more things, more details.
MAB: Exactly.

These are the type of breakdown strategies that I'd like to see more of from other boxers.Comment
