Thank you. My breakdowns focus on striking because I feel I have a better understanding of that. But I will talk about any grappling if I feel I have some insight to offer
Alex made Strickland overconfident by throwing slow, low power body jabs. Strickland chased his hands, Alex changed speed, levels and power. He's a master at getting an opponent overconfident, chasing his hands, then suddenly changing speeds, levels and power.
Agreed, he definitely lulled Strickland into a false security. And along with that speed you mentioned is the tightness of his punches too. He didn't wind up and telegraph the hook, it was very short, it's scary how much power he can generate with those short punches.
@@matthieudelarte3914 Indeed, he literally didn't throw any other punch other than that body jab before the finish. Didn't even use the right hand which is often said to be the best weapon against a southpaw. Was another great performance by him
