Nice to see O malley cup the forearm in open stance and shoot the cross. I remember bj doing that in a fight maybe Florian? Could one thing Vera had done to nullify the feints would be a no sell of them? And if O malley did choose them to jab slip and follow with offense?
Yeah just ignoring the feints might have been better than constantly swatting at everything, but generally he just needed to be doing more so that he could force O'Malley to have to react to him instead of the other way around.
Nice breakdown! I first gained grudging respect for O'malley's skills after his close victory over Yan. Ever since then, he's looked increasingly impressive, and seems to be a better version of himself each fight
