Holy sh*t, an actually intelligent breakdown that isn't just masturbatory in it's exultation of Max as the greatest fighter ever who has completely evolved into a new level of elite in between one fight… Nice to see someone recognize that maybe he was a multi time champ fighting the no 6 guy who's plan was to shell up in front if him and back away in a straight line, and there's a reason any fights with Volkanovski will always look different, excellent content my guy

I think all the bag work from the pandemic lockdown had a really good effect on the fluidity of Max's striking. Training combo's and mitts is all Max really needs to do to stay sharp so he is putting a lot more effort into using the training tools available. It would also put a lot more emphasis on being cerebral, and using visualizations.

So glad to see you doing mma break downs again man. This was so good. Really loved getting your different opinion on this. You revealed some really valid points and insights rather than jumping on the 'levelled up' band wagon like everyone else. Styles make fights. In this case these two fighters resulted in a lop sided outcome. It doesn't mean Max is now a God. Appreciate your work bro

It's a fair breakdown. It kind of shows the tiers to cage craft rather than just generally having fast feet. Because Calvin Kattar HAS good footwork and ring craft, but he went from Jeremy Stephens and Dan Ige level footwork to Max Holloway, which isn't even close in comparison. It's the same as Irene Aldana and Geoff Neal, where they are fleet footed and do have effective movement in the cage, but they went from Ketlen Vieria and Mike Perry, respectively, to Holly Holm and Stephen Thompson, which in hindsight seems unfair even if neither fighter was already compromised anyways.

Calvin did a lot of stepping back in straight lines before he even circled rather than smother max or roll under and step around off the centre line…. bad footwork and positional awareness , he made it simple for max , was predictable when he did actually try moving defensively ….lacks basic boxing fundamentals, lack of distance managelent and positional awareness situations..

You are the best analyst. I always learn a lot from you.

Dont you think the problem was that Katter guards up too much and his counterpunching wasnt strong enough to keep Holloway off him? Thats how it looked to me.
