    Default Re: Wladimir is open for left hooks to the body

    Todays heavies don't have the head movement or speed to get inside. Klitchskos waiting for you to lower your hands and target the body to he can drop the hammer on you. The modified euro style still relies heavily on the power hand. Klitchskos or should i say the late emmanual steward replaced the old typical pawing with a snapping jab. So a man of klitchkos size looks to size you up with the telephone pole jab. If your at the end of it, expect the overhand right... if you move under it, expect the uppercut or hook to the body.

    Now for the sake of argument, lets say you slip it, close the distance and hes squared up presenting you a shot at that rib cage with your left hook. You move in and you feel his elbow and forearm in the side/back of your neck as he attempts to stiff arm you push your head down throwing you off balance not allowing you to get your shot off. You option is to clinch and avoid being pushed out so he can get leverage with the left or throw punches with no leverage on them.

    Best option if you slip that jab and feint left is to loop one over the top and straight down the middle as the jabs still out and hes faked into taking the high right away from his head to protect his ribs/ control your head. Of course you stand a better chance of of success if hes close to the ropes or corner, because he tends to go straight back and uses his feet to retreat and he stiff arms to create distance.

    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
