    Holy ****, you're showing your ignorance with every post. Your dumb ass doesn't understand that it's not about 'targetting the body and moving upstairs', it's about establishing a pattern, getting your opponent acclimated to a specific punch (in this case the jab to the body to make him drop his hands) before switching up and surprising him (with the same hand to be more effective). You can't just go out there and throw one jab and then feint, you have to do it consistently to establish a patten.

    Everyone knows this trick but world champions are still falling for it. Let me guess, it's just luck right?

      I know what your talking about and it's been around forever, it's funny that you made a thread thinking it's something special when anyone that has been watching the sport for a reasonable length of time has seen it 1000 times.

      World champions still fall for left jab, right straight too. If it works, it works.

        You can see him trying to parry an invisible jab to the body. Doesn't always work but when it does it is beautiful.

          He was talking about that specific feint/punch. Relatively simple to execute and very effective.

            Broner isn't as good defensively as he'd love to think he is at all. He got hit with the same shot like 4 seconds before the KD

              You always get the usual idiot who screams Boxing 101, it's ******ed to say that it's basic fundamentals when we got elites and all time greats who lacked basic fundamentals. I don't even understand the necessity in saying "Feinting a punch and throwing another has been around as long as boxing", how does that even add to the topic at hand? So should I go on every thread, pertaining to a certain skill and say "Said-skill has been around as long as boxing". Fuckin' ******, seriously.

                Look at this clown. One could say going into a thread and writing a paragraph calling someone a ****** is ******ed, it adds nothing to the topic and I don't understand the necessity of it. Fuckin' ****** seriously.

                  I'm glad you recognize where you went wrong, beautiful.

                    As beautiful as a punch that was. His attempt at blocking a jab to the body was awful either way. Because he would have gotten hit with any followup punch if Maidana actually threw a real punch instead of feinted.

                      Jose Luis Castillo did the same thing against Corrales at the start of the tenth round the first knockdown.
