• Why that KO was actually set up three exchanges earlier

    People think the finishing punch came out of nowhere. It didn't. Watch round 2, exchange at 3:14. The fighter established the jab-feint pattern there. By round 3, the opponent was conditioned to expect the feint. The right hand was the exploitation of that conditioning. This is called a setup sequence. It's craft.
