I haven't seen Jo do this in any previous fights yet!!!! If you have let me know? Changing levels and angles with foot work will be key for young Jo. I see Jo getting in real trouble with AJs counter punches and his quick long Jab. If Jo can effectively slip that jab and get to work he may have some success. As for AJs counter punches, again I have never seen Jo face an opponent with AJs counter ability and power. I have also noticed that Jo is always open to counters because as he fires off his head is held high. I hope he doesn't fall into AJs counter traps. To put it simply i believe if Jo somehow has figured out how to nullify those two strengths of AJs, Jo's chances actually go sky high but I'd dont think Jo will be able to read AJs counters and that will be his down fall in the late rounds. He may eat a few big counters from AJ that lead into AJs flurries.
I agree.
Personally i dont think Parker will be able to operate at long range as the reach difference is pronounced and Joshua has a good jab/right hand combo. Up close i give parker a good advantage, but the mid range is no mans land for Parker, he needs to stay out of that killzone.
My plan for parker would be to not even throw from outside or mid range, just use the outside for breathers and save the energy for up close.
Ye your right that kind of 3/4 range is where AJ is at his most deadly. I agree with your game plan for Jo too. I just feel that its not suited to Jo's natural style. I hope KB and Jo have worked on there own counter game because AJ has that same tendency to leave his head up while firing off. That's how Whyte caught him momentarily.
