Makhmudov’s power window

Hearn says Makhmudov will lose steam after the first four rounds, and Allen (24-7-2, 19 COs) will be able to go on and punish him to the body and head. He believes that Allen will win the battle in the second half.

Treacherous starts ahead

“I think it’s a treacherous battle for the first four or five rounds,‘Tell Eddie Hearn to ifl tv About what Allen opposes in the fight against Makhmudov. ‘Dave is a phenomenal boxing brain. You must be tough enough to hang in there with Makhmudov. You have to be smart, but you have to work too. ‘

It’s even treacherous about four and five rounds for Allen. Makhmudov is still dangerous if he is exhausted and hurt. He beat a better fighter than Allen, Carlos Takam, with a unanimous decision of 10 round.

Makhmudov still threw in the later rounds with great power, but Takam’s punching resistance saved him to stop. The version of Takam was a larger puncher and an excellent fighter than Allen. There is no comparison. Unless Makhmudov has lost something out of his game over the past three years, Allen will take a lot of punishment in this battle.

Don’t run him down

“What you don’t want to do is walk him off with a high guard, shots to take the ear, because he can hit and he is very dangerous. He is very sharp early, and he was technically treated, ‘says Hearn about Makhmudov.

The high -guard walking approach is the one that Dave Allen usually uses in his fights. He doesn’t throw many bumps and just tries to block or take shots until he is in a large one of his own close enough.

Allen’s risky blueprint

Allen says he will bend Makhmudov, bend his power photos and then arrive to the fourth. If he starts slowly as he always does, he may not be long enough to raise his offense in the fifth round, as he said he will.
