    Mental game of competition, addiction if directed towards the wrong things, and replacing bad habits with good ones. Enjoyable to watch and listen to. Thanks.

    Tyson Fury is surely the the go to example in terms of mental strength. Maybe he's lost some popularity recently with the failed Usyk fights, but when he fought Wilder, he changed peoples opinion of what was physically and mentally possible 😎

    I like the trick of telling someone you're going to punch them in the balls a split second before you go to punch them in the balls, but then when they shoot their pelvis back and bring both hands down to block to nut punch, you grab the back of their head when it leans forward and pull it down into a headlock; or instead of a headlock you roll your fist over and bring the back of your elbow up to strike their nose. Never used it in a fight but it's worked every time in a playfight.

    lol ive seen fighter pretend to get hurt and flinch too much to lure the enemy in and the ref stopped the fight cuz the pretend hurt was too good. If you train your flinch enough you CAN learn to point the strongest part of your forehead at a punch at the last second instead of it hitting your eyeball, and knowing this will make you even more calm and see even more fight-fate.
