Yusaf Mack UPDATE!

[Kev]

I just sent them over a piece of info I caught on Henry,thats all I really ever said,and excuse the fuck out of me that I was happy that it worked.
I mean heaven forbid anyone should take any joy in their hand in a success.
No we should all sit in a hole and pray the world will get around to ending.
Thats much better
And btw Douchebag,Andrew had never gone four before I started working with him,and he was never around to get robbed on a decision before.
I think I would call that greatly improved.

Ok TM I don't want to steal your thunder, let's cool this now eh? Sorry if I upset you man just calling it how I see it.

Maybe you can get it if Im calm about it,I understand talking shit,it happens all the time here. But my business pays my bills. ie food on the table.
Now when you talk shit about my business you are potentially taking food out of my kids mouth.
Now this has a tendency to piss me the fuck off.
Go figure,Im funny like that
And it also makes me feel like,if Mack had lost you would have fallen over yourself to point out what a loser I was.
Im fucked if I win,Im fucked if I lose.
In Andrew's last fight,both

Ok sorry Monkey I don't want to sound callous, good luck in the future I mean you no wrong and I'm sorry for criticising you over your involvment in Thunders training, no doubt he did better last time out than before.

Let's just get back to arguing about Islam

Do we have to?
I was pretty sure we had beaten Islaam in to the dust at this point.
As far as Mack goes,Im just glad to be part of the team,Rory is very good at putting people around in the right spots,its a talent on his part. He is WAY better at it then I am.

They are replaying this fight right now on ESPN2 (at least in Arizona)

...I wonder what Tandy thinks when he reads this. So funny soooo funny.

Mack has some flaws though, I wish he would get a more consistent jab or at least a more commited jab. I think he's better behind it. He goes defensive for to long at a time, even when he's slipping shots and looking for counters underneath, it still looks bad and made for Henry winning a lot of those rounds even when he wasn't even landing cleanly. I think Henry outpunched him by a couple hundred and with any sort of jab that should never happen. Also wish he would use his feet a bit more, he got flatfooted a lot and with no jab just allowed to Henry to close the distance easily, even with the success of Mack's chopping right he would have been better served just firing it from outside where Henry has virtually no chance and just turning him.

Like I thought before the fight Mack was the more talented it was just a matter of the bad habits he has and them being all wrong for Mack, it made for a close fight and what has to be looked at as a good win over a Ring rated contender. Just lots of work to do.

Good luck to him though and thanks John and Barron for giving those updates on the forum, pretty cool stuff

I think that is part of the strategy, being aware of his stamina issues is a mature thing to implement.

I agree. Having only had limited sparring that will severely hamper your fighting endurance, and knowing how to manage that, plus implementing it effectively...is a tactically smart thing to do.

If Yusaf can somehow find the right means to fight consistantly as he did the first 6 rounds...having the power in his shots I believe he does, then he is going to be tough to beat when that all comes together, and by most anyone.

I disagree that not sparring will severly hamper your endurance. I used to use sparring to work on things, try things out. Running (& I hated it) always did wonders! I agree sparring has its benefits but it is not the be all & end all of endurance training!
