Ward and Salido= The Blueprint

[Motorcity Cobra]

As my boy [MENTION]PBP[/MENTION] so eloquently put it:

He's from the American school of fighting. He understands inside fighting and fighters are taught to return fire with fire. You hit me low I hit you low. And it's really not just USA its Central and South too.

Eastern European fighters are phenomenal outboxers and look invincible. Probably the most dominant amateur system right now. But they are used to refs breaking up the clinches quicker, maintaining the fight at a distance and strictly enforced rules. Inside fighting isn't given much credit in the scoring system and body punching is not emphasized. That's why the conversion from amateur to pro is not smooth for everyone.

That's why the Salido fight was too soon for Loma. He had enough fights to gain the experience and learn the tactics that pro fighters use to mentally break you.

That's why you see a big difference between JDJs mentality and Kovalev's Russian trainers mentality.

If you watch GGGs training footage, Abel spends a lot of time teaching inside fighting tricks. He was even trying to teach Sullivan Barrera a few tactics

Wow I never thought about it like that but it's genius. The low blow is the counter to Eastern European fighters. Goodbye Golovkin your weakness is out.

Gotta polish that inside game man. Or you will get exposed at the pro level.

Grabbing your opponent and waiting for the ref won't work against the elite inside fighters.

The fighters that dominate this sport master all distances.

Yeah gotta reinforce those nuts... You know, work that bag.

Don't you dare compare Ward and Salido

Salido would be god damned embarassed by what Ward is passing off as a low blow

[Beercules]

Eastern Euro fighters smell like vodka and eat cabbage.

Robotic stiff Euro bums.

[The Big Dunn]

Most of these posters advocate ill grimey shit if it meant beating an elite boxer. Now that the elite boxers are coming from places other than the USA, these tactics should be outlawed and penalized.

[Dosumpthin]

Euro bums = no special effects

I'm sure when Mayorga beat Forrest and Maidana gave Floyd a scare they were on their feet cheering.

It's always been that way. If can't beat a guy boxing make it a dog fight.

Box with the fighters and fight with the boxers. Those that can do both will be hard to beat
