Hooking Off The Jab....

Hooking off the jab is a combo that many fighters neglect... It's a great weapon to use as was evident in last night's fight with Forrest vs. Baldomir...

Fighters..... You NEED to watch and study fights like this.... I couldn't believe on how sharp Forrest looked!

Did you see him hooking of that great jab he was shooting?! Watching that makes you want to go right to the gym and spar and try it yourself...

We can forget to use certain combos at times... Watching a technician like Forrest who REALLY upped his effort and performance.... You see things in action that maybe you neglected... You get ideas and see how great they can work at the same time....

It's great to watch these fights and hope to catch a performance like Vernon's and learn from it...

It's even better to go to the gym and try it out for yourself...

Class Is In Session Tonight....

Aspiring fighters if you want to get a real lesson in the Sweet Science... Professors Bernard Hopkins and Winky Wright will be presenting tonight in the squared circle...

Take notes on how Winky uses his jab at different tempos...On how he uses a simple turtle like defense to pick off would be scoring shots.... Take notes on how Bernard will try to adapt by offsetting Winky's jab...As he will try to time him with right hands... Pay close attention to Bernard's foot work that many are overlooking and may be a decisive factor in tonight's fight...

Ring Generalship will be shown at it's finest tonight...

The key in the ring is to stay relaxed and both of these fighters do this so well...They also know how to set traps... Change momentum... Take away strengths and make it theirs....

Yup....

This is a fight that aspiring fighters will be studying for some time on how boxing is really done...By two masters... It won't be brawling.. But Science.. With some bursts of fierce exchanges of course... I really expect we will get more action than anticipated tonight...

Students...Pay close attention, as these fighters will be displaying skills that are neglected by many...It may be some time before you see two old school fighters like this again...

What The Jab Can Do For You

It all starts with the jab... My fighters know how much I stress this... Yet many fighters neglect it or under utilize it...

For all you fighters out there... You wanna control and win alott fights?... Develop a great jab...

Larry Holmes dominated with it for eight years during his title reign...Watch some of his fights.. Look at how he mesmerizes and sets up his opponents with it scoring at will... He kept them on the defensive and shut them down!...The jab was everything to him...

Ike "Bazooka" Quartey has a Bazooka like jab.. In his prime he dominated his opponents with it... Ike had De la Hoya hesitant and off his game with it...

Now Winky Wright has been kicking ass with his jab and turtle like defense... Winky's jab has a crisp velocity to it and he shoots it a bit high.. This throws his opponents off...

The thing here is.. He developed it this way... He worked on it for countless hours and years... Now he is reaping the rewards of his labor...

Learn from these elite fighters... Watch what this weapon can do for you...

The jab can shut fearsomely offensive fighters down keeping them on the defensive...

You get the point?... Good... Now get to work on it!

These two promotional firms are kicking away the casket!

Boxing is dying huh?... Damn! I gotta tell you how much this annoys me to even write this statement.....

I hate hearing that bullshit! Cause those of us in the know... Know how ludicrous that is....as I have written about it before....

Well you may be thinking.... Hey smart ass!.. How can you still think that way after all that has been written to the contrary?

I'll tell you why....

The relationship between Golden Boy and Top Rank (Bob Arum) has been reconciled...

This opens the opportunity and reality for HUGE fights to happen....

Fights like Manny Paq vs.Juan Manual Marquez II

Provided Margarito wins tomorrow... Cotto vs. Margarito

If not, then Mosley vs. Cotto will be made...

These are two VERY proactive promotional power houses and the best in boxing right now...

They will work together to bring more livelier, entertaining, and memorable events....

Both of these power houses stable of star studded fighters backs this statement...

There is no grave site in sight for boxing....

Just the reality of soon to be packed venues and fans greatly anticipating these and more big fights... that get the fans hyped....

Ya... I know it pisses you haters off that the Hurst has now made a U turn....
