That's ironic given Quillin only had 15-20 fights as an amateur and it shows. Doesn't help he'll have been out of the ring for an entire year and has only fought less than 2x a year for the past 3 years. He struggles with focus during the mid to later rounds of his fights. Throw in the possible mental distractions he may be going through due his public backlash.
Andy's biggest flaw is that he fights down to his level of opposition, and subsequently struggled with some of his stay busy fights. But in his biggest fights vs Chavez, Vera II, Korobov he's sharp and shows great control and aggression. The version of Andy that fought Chavez & Vera II beats the version of Quillin that I've been watching fight Guerrero, Konecny, Rosado, and N'Dam.
In all those fights Quillin was open to the right hand and ate them. Quillin has a strong & fast right hand of his own, but he lunges with it. One of Adam Booth's best qualities is designing drills to help his fighters learn how to set traps on their opponents.
In fact if you think about it, Peter hasn't fought any big punchers yet to date, yet he's been hurt pretty bad vs Dionisio Miranda early in his career and more recently vs Rosado. Andy's been hurt vs Vera early in his career, vs Chavez who had approx. 20lbs on him, and vs John Jackson (where Andy dropped to 154lbs after never having been lower than 158.5lbs in his career).Comment
