Barrera against Morales is worth watching for the occasional natural reflex things you can catch him doing when they stood toe toe I forget the rounds or which fight maybe no 2He turn to face punches sometimes and uses his lead arm upside down like a runway so Erics blows would go over or the power dissipate without losing distance. Forearms combined with body position to nullify or take the power away from an attack.Some of it seemed like instinct.
Id be looking at some of the greater lighter weights going at it in their nose to nose rounds to see if you can capture a rare technique or so. Like Grey said Humberto Gonzales was another nose to nose fighter he had some doozies as did his nemesis Michael Carbajal.
Ya have to watch close but 6:16 here you see Marco land a body shot and with the left arm left extended out on the way to stepping out, he just turns his body and checks Erics reply with his elbow. He gets up to a lot of that kind of stuff when its really on and tight. Reaction and experience mixed.Dont know if you can teach that.
He seems to only sometimes and its subtle but land a good shot but leaves his arm out floating for second and makes it get in the way of the counter reaction to his own shot by facing the reply.
