Anyway most slick fast boxers tend to have problems with guys of Mikey Garcia’s talent, guys that are patient and have great timing, and great counter punchers usually are problems for fast fighters.
Russell is not slick. he's fast with a high work rate (& he can box) he's more of a joe calzaghie kinda fighter. he's not slick at all in my book...........
if mickey sat back and tried to fight russell at a slow pace he would get outclassed (hypothetically. IF russell is the goods that he's showed against lower grades)
mickeys timing & counter punching can be a negative for him because mickey waits with his counter punching too much. when you wait as much as mickey you can set yourself up to be outclassed (like kessler vs calzaghie) mickey waits a lot.........i really liked when mickey would pressure fighters but he stopped doing this.Last edited by Godsfly; 03-03-2013, 03:53 PM.
