Studying Videos of Opponents

[bikersk]

Id say a fighters trainer should watch tapes of their opponent and focus training on certain things accordingly, the fighter themselves could over analyse their opponent bringing a negative effect.

Thats what I was saying in my first post...let the trainer watch the tapes and if there is something that he feels you need to see or study...he can choose what you watch....or look out for

Good point Daxx. Just heard Mundine last night say the same thing as PBF in preparation for his upcoming bout against the Argentinian Clavero. He put it in the usual humble way too, something like 'I don't watch tapes of opponents because it's all about the man and what i can do. Doesn't matter what they do etc etc they cant beat me etc etc if i prepare properly etc etc'..................


YAWN.

What not a fan of humble fighters?

IMO once a fighter gets to an elite level the studing of tapes becomes obsolete....by time a guy is on a P4P list or world champion they have seen it all and can adjust accordingly in the ring...if they didn't have the ability they would not be at that level in the first place.....

I am a firm believer that fighters should watch fights in general...be it his own weight class or any other,,,,you can never stop learning....but tapes of opp,,,,can't really say it helps one way or another

I'm quite a fan of Mundine, always have been. Just that the guys who talk and talk and talk i find boring and doesn't add anything to a fight for me because it's easy to see through. Mundine saying he's the best, well no he was beat by Otke, Siacca and then Kessler. People recognise Joe as the best at super middle not Mundine. Maywether saying he's going to do this and that and prepared to die, well he's not, he's prepared to use his skill and movement. N'dou going on about his 1000 push up's a day before the Paulie fight. Well it's not a F****** pushup competition. Darchinyan going on about how everyone's avoiding him, well they're not!! There's better fights out there than him. Shut up about it. Anyway going to have my medication now.

Ha Ha Ha CC for the rant.....I agree some guys just don't shut up....I firmly believe they talk just to hear their own voices sometimes...look at saturdays card....after Tarvers fight he was just going on and on about nothing....not even once did he make a valid point....oh well

And CC back. Maybe they just watch tapes of each other crapping on rather than fight tapes.
