Mikey seems like he has been hanging out with Robert too much.
Shoudl have gotten a real nutritionist because Broner is going to rehydrate and he looks like he just didn't cut.

Maidana and Garcia both known for having those guts. Both fighters looked great (or at least better) under Ariza, but he was terminated, and they both went back to normal afterwards.

Mikey has never really had a tremendous physique, but it does leave me wondering if there's more he can do during his camps to get more cut up. It's gotta be diet and training, right?

many people quick to label both Mikey and Broner as natural counter punchers

It's not far from the truth but I think Mikey is rather a classic, textbook boxer puncher I don't think he would have that much of a tough time with leading the dance as a counter puncher but the 2 styles are close so whatever...

Broner is a sharpshooter mainly counters but he also can lead offenses and he can also be a classic out boxer if he wants to, I think that's what he will need if he wants to win, Mikey isn't the fastest fighter on foot and Broner has quicker hands and overall faster. I don't mean outside boxing like "running" but active work fro the outside with lots of lateral movement. Robert Garcia would call it running either way... :mjlol: idk how such a good coach can be stuck at that stereotypical BS Mexican macho talk. Maybe it's mental warfare cause he knows that it favors Mikey if Broner doesn't "run" so basically doesn't fight Mikey from the outside and doesn't use his movement which is one of his advantages if he decides to use it.
You have to remember Robert isn't Mikey's coach Big G, their father is Mikey's coach, Robert is just the corner man.
I agree Mikey is a boxer puncher to me. not what I would call a counter puncher. I think AB is a natural counter puncher who can come forward smartly when in the mode, but not his natural disposition.

I think this will work will for AB if he turns Mikey and makes sure when he is in, he is in, and tie up and turn mIkcey on the inside, don't sit in front of him on the side or in that middle zone.

That said AB has an inch reach advantage, if he can get on that jab and get Mikey trying to reach I think he can end it late off a heavy counter and flurry.

I thought Mikey looked good physically at featherweight and early super featherweight, after the break he has looked soft. I really think he should get someone like Shilstone or Memo. Legit S&C coach.

He has to know how the game is played and the higher you move up the more guys are cutting to stay down and the bigger climb you have, and he doesn't have the defenseive skills like Floyd to make that jump IMHO
