|
Others use brute strength or length or footwork and feints, but most are always working toward a favorite spot on the floor and a pet move—a right-handed jump-hook, say, or a short turnaround.
|
|
From Bisping there was thoughtful, disciplined work and use of feints and pressure to defuse Silva's counter fighting game—but there were also defensive flaws, clear habits, and moments of poor shot selection and wasted effort.
|
|
Feints undo the work of a good counter puncher and make him more hesitant, from Mike Tyson to Renan Barao, it's a principle which has been proven against the greatest boxers and fighters of all time.
|
|
If a fighter starts to second guess himself, or throws three or four feints without stepping in to show the legitimate strike, any doubt they implanted into the counter-striker's mind is quickly going to fade.
|
|
Despite the big jump up in competition that Sicilia represented, Tucker passed this test with flying colors, using footwork, extremely clever feints, and some serious quickness to soundly out-strike his foe for three straight rounds.
|
|
It is very hard trying to convince an opponent with feints while your back foot is against the fence—you're the guy in trouble, he's the one deciding when you're even close enough to hit each other.
|
|
No one wants to run a mile from a flinch of the shoulder, which is how feints dull a fighter's senses as he waits later and later to ascertain whether the strike is legitimate before he moves.
|
|
There are those, like me, who are enjoying its weird meandering and occasional feints toward openly trolling its audience, because the show's naked emotionalism and bizarre sense of humor provide all the undercurrent we need to keep going.
|
|
Namajunas's feints repeatedly drew missed kicks out of Jędrzejczyk, it would be great to see her capitalize with high kicks as there are few repercussions to a blocked high kick when the opponent is so out of position.
|
|
I would welcome the chance to review Mr. King's entire run on Batman, what promises to be at least 100 issues, and look at the structure, the plot feints and the growth of the characters over that time.
|
|
Still, for manufacturing workers, those efforts will seem vastly inferior to rebuilding the domestic manufacturing base, something the budget only feints at through small investments in manufacturing research and development and subsidies to help small manufacturers scale up operations.
|
|
We stressed the importance of "convincing" feints in the Tactical Guide, and when Ngannou pawed with the jab, Miocic was not forced to do anything, instead waiting on the right hand that Ngannou was loading up behind his back.
|
|
The blueprint for besting Henderson wasn't much different from the one Bisping had used to beat Anderson Silva—both men wanted to time Bisping coming in, so he had to show dozens of feints to throw off their timing.
|
|
It was here that those feints came in handy as well, Gastelum threw about a third of the strikes that he showed but Kennedy was forced to move, flinch, lash out and run while Gastelum simply walked him down.
|
|
Adesanya's striking style is one which might well be better suited for MMA than pure kickboxing: a dozen fakes and feints a minute, flicking jabs from below the opponent's guard, stance switches and beautiful "question mark" or "Brazilian" kicks.
|
|
For all his feints and flicks, Totti's single greatest trick is how long he has been able to approximate his best, lulling Rome – and by extension, Italy – into demanding he remain essential long after he reasonably ought to be.
|
|
UFC 217 was a great night for convincing feints, with T.J. Dillashaw's nice faked shot into head kick and Georges St-Pierre's constant deceptions to hide his jab, and it speaks volumes about how far this sport has come.
|
|
That tinker-toy-and-rubber-band style, all wrenched limbs and squeaky feints and steep jumpers, is still fundamentally not all that possible to defend against, and Carlisle leverages the attention it attracts into driving lanes and corner threes.
|
|
Shevchenko and de Randamie aren't magical—their tactics could be hindered quite easily by good feints and a double jab—but Holm spent both fights standing well beyond range, building up her courage, and making one or two charges a round.
|
|
One of the few feints Hunt showed in the fight had Overeem hit the fence too early and desperately trying to get out of dodge while Hunt was standing directly in front of him, ready to react and swing either hand.
|
|
The verbal part of his show was a series of feints and parries, delivered with a deadpan earnestness subtly tinged with sarcasm that kept the audience off guard until a nonsensical tangent revealed it was all a joke — or was it?
|
|
And "Election Year" feints toward real-world politics in other ways as well, notably in how it pits a multicultural underdog coalition against a white power structure abetted by neo-Nazi mercenaries with Confederate flags and swastikas on their uniforms.
|
|
We discussed this in our pre-fight piece and it is quickly becoming a money technique against the Brazilian banger due to his reliable biting on feints and attempting to counter, and his considerable reach disadvantage against every bantamweight he faces.
|
|
Despite Verizon's recent feints toward old-line companies, Mr. McAdam largely stuck to a strategy of improving the company's network — it regularly receives industry accolades for its performance and reach — and leading the quest for the industry's latest holy grail: 5G.
|
|
There are feints in the direction of realism and social inquiry, but every time she might dig a little deeper into Destiny's inner life or Ramona's relationships, Scafaria falls back into bubbly girl-boss montages and luxury-brand consumer fetishism.
|
|
It is a tricky business trying to decide which movements are worth picking up on and which are worth ignoring in a split second window, and when fighters stop reacting to feints they make themselves easy marks for clean leads.
|
|
Weidman's feints also did more in that fight—in moving Machida to the fence and making him second guess his usual counter opportunities—and Anders has also shown that he understands the value of feinting his way in slowly along the fence.
|
|
Feinting Choi into throwing would make landing the low kicks far easier as he retreated from his missed counter into his stance, and if Choi's finger comes off the trigger after a few feints, Stephens can step in and get more aggressive.
|
|
Cooper's first tournament was by no means an unqualified success as, for all his flicks and feints, he gave away the ball at two key moments in the final to allow Fiji to come from 15-0 down to win 21-15.
|
|
Now if anyone understands the value of feints in dealing with a big counter puncher it is Dillashaw, whose work against Renan Barao should be kept on DVD in every gym and shown to young fighters whenever the subject of feinting comes up.
|
|
Feinting in MMA can often be enough to freak out a counter fighter and put him into passivity, but against experienced strikers it is necessary to start sneaking strikes through after the feints to make it important that the opponent stay on guard.
|
|
The kind of deep slips he was performing in front of Derek Brunson's swings are the kind that guys like Whittaker will want to get him doing with jabs and feints, then follow up on with well-placed uppercuts or even high kicks.
|
|
By taking Thompson's finger off the trigger with constant forward pressure and plenty of feints, Woodley could move himself into position to utilize the inside, counter low kicking game that Robin Van Roosmalen brings world class kickboxers to the brink of tears with.
|
|
And if Dillashaw begins stepping in with his straights and hooks rather than spamming out static with the jabs, feints and low kicks which threw off Joe Soto and Renan Barao, the openings which Cruz loves to exploit for takedown attempts will be apparent.
|
|
There are plenty of designers enraptured with the aggressive feints of ultracasual street wear at the moment, when Demna Gvasalia of Vetements and Balenciaga, who has subjected T-shirts and sweatshirts to the ministrations of a design studio and atelier, has helped set the tone.
|
|
Romero will often open up the distance willingly when shown an attack, he's a patient fighter, and Whittaker should take advantage of this with double jabs, body kicks as Romero believes it is safe to step back in, and constant feints to confuse Romero.
|
|
Using feints and leads to keep Romero moving is the most important thing to a long term gameplan, but if Romero stops moving the chance is always there for that Bobby Knuckles left hook, or a high kick as Romero uses his unpolished head movement.
|
|
And though the play is peppered with theatrical interruptions — a song, a story, some ominous sounds, fits of aggression and feints of emotion — you will not find "Heroes of the Fourth Turning" very entertaining if you don't believe in the dramatic potential of debate.
|
|
"His appeal was definitely populist and his rhetoric remains so, but the reality of how he's governed has been more of a rich-person conservative with feints toward his populist base," said Sheri Berman, a Barnard College political-science professor who has written about populism.
|
|
It is strange to watch Weidman demonstrate such a proper understanding of ringcraft, feints and double ups in his tricking of Silva and trapping of Machida along the fence, but then be stumped by Romero simply retreating on a straight line from each of his attacks.
|
|
Max Holloway provided the perfect answer to Brian Ortega's big power and crafty counters, using the jab, feints, and the double jab to draw Ortega's intentions out or make him lean, then cracking him with right hands and body shots while he was out of position.
|
|
Volkanovski's impressive three-round decision win over Jose Aldo at UFC 237 in Brazil in May was bettered only when he outpointed the long-reigning UFC featherweight champion Max Holloway with an authoritative stand-up strategy consisting of expert footwork, fluid feints, and intuitive distance management.
|
|
When TJ Dillashaw took apart the hard hitting counter puncher, Renan Barao not once but twice, he did so with masterful use of feints to draw Barao out, plant the seed of doubt in the Brazilian's mind, and to force Barao to loosen his finger on the trigger.
|
|
This counter in particular was the one that B.J. Penn panicked St-Pierre with in their first bout, though generally St. Pierre's feints and anticipation have gotten to the point where it is tough for opponents to even tell when he is stepping in before his jab lands.
|
|
Knowing that the Machida's will give ground from almost every attack until they pick up on an obvious tell or have their man's timing down, Rua threw punches or feints to get Lyoto Machida running, then kicking Machida's trailing leg as it was the last thing to leave range.
|
|
At the same time, he helps us see that the project, far from being the expression of a Panopticon-like supervisory intelligence ordering an unruly world, is improvisatory, wildly eclectic, and "hyper-linked" in its very nature—a set of "brilliant feints, satire, and irony," as Curran characterizes it.
|
|
It was apparent to anyone who saw Gastelum throwing awkward hands with Hart that he had a chin on him, but rather than feel comfortable in that knowledge, Gastelum has gone out of his way to study the sweet science and to perfect his feints, slips and counters.
|
|
The men's beach volleyball players are as a rule buff and bellowing, and while the fact that there are only two of them out there cuts down some on the relentless feints and fake-outs of the team game, beach volleyball still tends toward a sort of overdetermined testosteronality.
|
|
The book feints at a narrative and at wrestling with the issues it raises — about the temptations and dangers of isolationism, the desire to imagine the lives of others, how the Fukushima tragedy tapped into Japan's history of radiation poisoning going back to the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
|
|
Because though this extravagant conversation piece of a movie, written and directed by Darren Aronofsky, feints toward psychological thriller territory and spends a delicious half-hour or so in the realm of domestic farce, it plants its flag defiantly on the wind-swept peak of religious (and ecological) allegory.
|
|
Till has shown an understanding of feints to go along with his pressure, constantly pumping his left shoulder and hip, and while he rarely uses his jab as much as he should, let alone shows a double, it will certainly come in handy—especially when Thompson is southpaw.
|
|
Especially when you consider the way the Trump campaign is painting these first feints at expanding the map: We are flush with cash, so why not consider building organizations in these states in the event we catch lightning in a bottle like we did in Michigan and Pennsylvania in 22016?
|
|
When fighting a counter fighter it is always important to show feints because they either leave the other guy swinging at air—exhausting if you throw as hard as a Dan Henderson or Mark Hunt—or have him holding back a bit and waiting longer before he throws his counters.
|
|
And in a country with an excruciatingly (and increasingly) complicated campaign finance rulebook, the absence of a full roster of referees means it's become even easier to, if not break the law, then openly defy its spirit, although the real scandal may be that feints like Ryan's are apparently perfectly acceptable.
|
|
And the eventual emigration, far from being a sweeping, all-in gamble, took place through a series of well-financed feints and small measures: his mother was nowhere near as poverty-stricken as he makes her seem, nor was France as distant a goal as he wants it to sound.
|
|
"The sell-off caused by geopolitical tensions on North Korea will likely be short-lived as long as both Trump and Kim Jong Un keep making feints against each other and neither takes military action," said Tomoaki Fujii, head of the investment research division at Akatsuki Securities Inc in Tokyo.
|
|
Yes, Cuomo's support signaled a huge shift in the debate, but the halls of power in state legislatures are really labyrinths, and the game of politics is convoluted and full of feints and plays for leverage and backroom dealings, so who were we to say with any confidence what Cuomo's move really meant?
|
|
He desensitized Nelson with feints, and when he committed his weight to the right hand he would duck out or change the angle, sometimes resulting in this gorgeous quarter turn that looks more like something from the arsenal of Willie Pep than some a 250 pound mixed martial arts fighter would do.
|
|
As a southpaw Till should have had to contend with Cerrone's lead hand when jabbing, but through good handfighting, feints, and dropping his lead hand below Cerrone's vision, Till could sneak through crisp jabs that drew flinches and overreactions from Cerrone in the later going, and raised his head for the left straight in combination.
|
|
The end came in the fifth, when Dubois made two feints with his head to open Gorman up, then popped a lazer-fast one-two combination through his guard — jab, overhand right — which saw Gorman fall for the second time in the fight, this time for good, as he failed to beat the count.
|
|
If you want to explore rhythm and cadence, footwork and level, and psychology in fighting you should allow yourself to only use the jab for a while and see just how many ways you can use just this one weapon when you have level changes, feints, pauses, lateral movement and so on to play with.
|
|
The outcome is the product of many factors: divisions in the European Council, the failure of the "lead candidate" doctrine to catch on, the parliament's inability to unite around an alternative candidate, some MEPs' resentment of national leaders for imposing their choice, the identity crisis on the European centre-left and the insincere strategic feints of populist rightists.
|
|
Considering that Thompson was attempting to time his right hands and right low kicks through the wake of Woodley's fairly obvious, single, heavy jabs—it would be worth throwing out plenty of feints and moving forwards just to see if Thompson will throw himself into a bad position when he attempts to counter strikes that aren't there.
|
|
Faking the level changes to make Ngannou work and move, using feints to get his finger off the trigger on the counters, scoring the jab and eventually sneaking through the right hands—always cutting the combination off, exiting by "closing the door" with the left hook, or moving to a clinch proper to limit the chances of Ngannou smashing him on the return.
|
|
With feints — of his upper body, lead jab, even his footwork — it was clear he wanted to use boxing acumen, box at range, and use the full space of the 22-foot ring to frustrate Ruiz Jr., the heavier champion, and make him move and not plant his feet through every minute of every round that the bout would last.
|
|
In his mind, all the feints, cutbacks and bursts that evoke his favorite player, Reggie Bush, do not compare to the punt he fielded midway through the first quarter against New England in Week 7, when he stepped left, cut right, then zipped left again, shedding a tackle at his feet before encountering a defender by the boundary squaring up to level him.
|
|
Dillashaw's shifts came into their own here, but more than that—he was always cognizant of the likelihood of a return, moving his head and staying 'alive' rather than moving through prepared combinations without thought for his opponent's actions: When Barao wasn't forced into inactivity through feints and concern about counters, he would wade forwards for a period and eat Dillashaw's blows as the aggressor.
|
|
It's never good to look too much into sparring footage, but you will notice that in McGregor's sparring sessions with experienced boxers he is much less effective with the back-skipping left hand because boxers are taught to stay on top of their stance and not to reach, they also show plenty of feints which make it more difficult for McGregor spot their intentions.
|
|
Lawler drops his hips hard on opponents who shoot on him and is constantly ready to do so—a bit of Justin Gaethje/Chad Mendes faked shot magic could go a long way towards hurting Lawler and work the same way as feints do with counter strikers—they will make him hold off longer before deciding to drop his weight and this in turn will make getting the takedowns easier.
|
|
But in doing this we were forced to wrap up the preview frustratingly, with what seemed like half a page of questions about Ngannou's ability to deal with feints and straight hitting, retain his form and movement over the rounds, and stop takedowns after the opening minutes—and the honest conclusion that while absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, there just isn't a lot that we could say that Ngannou could do outside of lightning fast hitting in the opening round.
|
|
Rather than putting the album's mix of anger and love, forbearance and recrimination into one woman's mind and threading those contradictions together in the telling of her life—in other words, rather than doing what each listener of "Jagged Little Pill" does by an instinctive act of imagination—Cody distributes them awkwardly among the members of a strained family, painting a tableau of white suburban anomie that feints at depth but, throughout the show's two and a half hours, is always threatening to dissolve.
