Comments Thread For: Harrison: Mayweather's Jab Will Cause Issues For Manny

[rme7]

Manny is pretty good with dealing with jabs. Don't know what Harrison is on about.

I think he's right. I see the jab and the forearm/elbow smash as manny's two biggest problems.

Floyd often telegraphs his right hand by rotating his back foot

thats not telegraphing..boxers are not looking at back feet if there busy doing that they are going to get hit in the face anyways..and squaring your foot up is way better that bouncing into a shot and u can leap with a left hook or jab..its not only a right hand u can give..floyd just uses wat is open...

Floyd can counter pacs jab with his left hook

Some boxers do look at their opponents feet

Hopkins said that's what he did vs trinidad

take a look at bradley 1 as jabs bounced off his head repeatedly..im not saying bradley won but manny had no answer for the jab..he's not just talking about the jab along but wat u can do with the lead hand paw, tapping, bliding...fighters understand this...its going to be thinking for manny and if u dont think u will have to pay b/c floyd is only goign to paw or tap with it when he has u in position to make u pay if u dont respect it...

And it's not just his foot that rotates, he becomes less square

right hand first followed by body work is more likely b/c floyd will win the foot position battle so manny will be throwing jab with his foot inside of flodys and it spells doom

"Hopkins is not skilled"

He lacks exceptional power , athleticism and speed yet he's operating at world level going into his 50s.

He's done that by being incredibly technically proficient and possessing great skill , mastering the fundamentals.
