Joe may have given it everything he had against Takam, but he made some really novice mistakes. Like going straight back when attacked, coming off the ropes with his chin held high, not good footwork. All things that would make Joe a much better fighter if he corrected them. My worry is that he's developed more novice mistakes. Like no left hook, lunging, no second phase attack, closing his eyes when he punches, staying in the pocket after he punches while keeping his face in range, etc. All correctable, and hopefully KB can correct all this while at his Auckland camp. The worry is that he's making these mistakes while being trained by KB.
