Study, do not imitate
The point is to spot patterns: pressure, range, rhythm, risk, and defensive habits. The radar below turns those patterns into a readable coaching map.
What to study
- • Simple repeatable cues from older footage
- • Lower-weight tempo and angle changes
- • Power choices set up by position
What not to copy
- • Do not copy highlight-reel habits without the coachable setup.
- • Do not treat a study page as proof that your style should match the fighter.
Training translation
- • Use two-minute technical rounds that isolate the cue before adding speed or power.
- • Use angle-entry rounds where foot position is checked before punch choice.
- • Use coach-fed constraints so the habit becomes a repeatable round, not a copied pose.
