His technique is incredibly good for his experience level. I’m bugging out even more, here. This kid is the fkin definition of well schooled.
Angles with his feet. Stepping outside then back in, landing his jab from all angles there and in between. And that jab, the consistency of it, without patterns being set* Variety with his shots, his setups and feints. The compactness and conciseness, the lack of wasted energy. The way he uses his left hand with such versatility as a defensive tool, parrying straight right hands like they’re jabs or curling it around to catch the left hook. *the way he never seems to set a pattern, he’s always triggering his opponent with something and it’s never the same thing twice. He can fight outside and mid range and inside. He does moves I just want to replay and replay and replay, and he does quite a lot of them.
I’m fucken tumescent, here.
