S&C can definitely take someone who never has worked out in a similar fashion and make them faster or stronger which is what he did with EJ, idk what you mean.

Do you mean someone who already is in the gym or an athlete can’t benefit from a strength coach?

exactly what I said they can make you faster/stronger but if you don't have right genes you will be slower/not as strong as someone who has good genetics for that.

You said explosiveness and athleticism is genetics. But then also said a S&C can make you faster and stronger so which one is it? "Athletic" and "explosive" is subjective so it's wrong to say they can't make you either.

When people refer to explosiveness and athleticism they essentially mean how quick can your body go from 0-60 im whatever sport it is you play basketball/track/boxing whatever. If it isn't in you genes to be explosive you aren't going to be it no matter hard you train for it. Can you get better? Absolutely. Does your "better" make you come close to someone who has the genes for it? Nope.


You and Usain Bolt could train the same way, eat the same calories, rest the same amount of hours but you ain't beating that man in a race.

Swift throwing 700 punches, solved half his problem.

Now he has to work on being explosive. That's what truly held him back against Spence and was the difference to me. Danny needs to develop the ability to rip off combos and press on the fly quickly. There were times where he'd back Spence off with a couple well timed shots, but he'd always let him regroup. Then when it was Spence turn, he'd back Danny off with a shot or two and then run off a bunch of combos pushing Swift back even more. Basically making it hard for Swift to reset and go on the attack again.

Its not just about letting your hands go, its about letting your hands go at the most opportune moments. Exploding during lulls or when a guy wants to take a breather are examples. Angel might not be the one to train Danny on this, but it needs to be done. His game is lacking that part. Its not like Spence threw 1200 punches on some Pac shyt.. He threw just enough during the right moments to offset and beat up Danny.

Swift got a lot to think about going forward.

His footwork is the reason why it’s not like that. Watch his feet for a couple rounds he never steps into his punches because he cares to much about power and not enough about getting punches off, same with Broner. They stand still and don’t move when punching ever so they are not in position to actually throw most of the time, especially if somebody is in and out,

That's also why Danny never had more than a punchers chance. Spence moves a lot better than nikkas in here give him credit for.

My 2021 fight wish list(I know some of these have no chance of happening but a man can dream):

Jermell Charlo vs the winner of Teixeira/Castano for undisputed at 154
Jermell Charlo vs GGG
Jermell Charlo vs Madrimov(this would be a FOTY and KO of the year in the same fight probably)
Jermell Charlo vs Jarrett Hurd
Jermall Charlo vs GGG
Jermall Charlo vs Demetrius Andrade
Errol Spence Jr vs Terrence Crawford
Errol Spence Jr vs Manny Pacquiao
Terrence Crawford vs Keith Thurman(I really want to see this one more than the Porter fight it is a much more interesting clash of styles, I actually think Crawford would beat Porter somewhat convincingly, not by stoppage though it would go 12, still wouldn't mind that fight either though.)
Caleb Plant vs David Benavidez
Gary Russell Jr vs Shakur Stevenson
Gary Russell Jr vs Josh Warrington
Gervonta Davis vs Shakur Stevenson
Shakur Stevenson vs the winner of Carl Frampton/Jermell Herring
Shakur Stevenson vs Miguel Berchelt
Gervonta Davis vs Gary Russell Jr
Gervonta Davis vs Ryan Garcia
Devin Haney vs Vasyl Lomachenko
Devin Haney vs Teofimo Lopez
Jarron Ennis vs Yordenis Ugas
Jarron Ennis vs Terrence Crawford
Vergil Ortiz Jr vs Shawn Porter
Vergil Ortiz Jr vs Danny Garcia
Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury
Deontay Wilder vs Dillian Whyte
Naoya Inoue vs Johnriel Casimero
