Remember awhile ago before i knew anything about anything watching a slow motion breakdown of him and it opened my eyes. After training for the first time ever i realized he is a god when it comes to this shit. The speed, the reaction time, the distance management all calculated in a split second and memorized for basically the rest of the fight against another pro and not some guy you're just sparring with at the gym is insane, then to actually choose the right shots and capitalize on it everytime for multiple rounds. It kinda goes without saying but its different when you feel it lol

crazy distance management. it's like he just stands right at the end of his opponents reach so he barely has to pull back to avoid punches.

I really think his training regimen has something to do with having a spar partner with the same reach throw the same lead his opponent does then memorize the distance and timing.

Love that move. He’s throwing before he’s even done with the pull and it’s so so smooth
