This thread also makes a dumb assumption that the offensive style is a breeze. That's the dumbest **** you hear people say here. Moving forward and trying to land punches at the same time is doubly hard, people.
Rigo couldn't do it in the Agbeko fight. He was forced to move forward because the audience was booing. And he still had to wait for Agbeko's punch before throwing his. WTF! He was moving forward and still have to take the benefit of countering! Same thing I saw with Trout in his fight with Lara and Canelo. Man, he was so clumsy moving forward because Lara has taken the role of countering and running, which was also Trout's style. Canelo, otoh, stopped boxing because it was an open scoring and they knew who was ahead. Trout was forced to take the offensive style.
