2k risk is a very tough barrier to break thru and stay there. gl breaking that 1k barrier and stay there.
I was doing 2k+ after 3 months and didn't really drop down below that for 10 months. Only been doing 250 now because I was trying a new approach.
it is technical power vs technical volume, the technical power always(likely) wins first round. Lemos is lighting up Leslie Smith with power, it is only Smith sick aggression and make it as dirty as possible to make the round close. I think Lemos is the better striker, I might change side too. The fight is likely decide what Amanda Lemos look like in second rd. I don't recall Inoue being a pressure fighter like Leslie Smith, Inoue technical striking might be her down fall against such powerful striker.
Watching tape so here's some more thoughts:
Mizuki definitely pressures and she reacts well to being the smaller, less powerful striker. I'm watching her against Wu, who was way bigger and came in overweight, and Miz is isn't worried at all by the power and she's not taking a single step back. Wu is a FLW as well it says.
Also, it was a long time ago, but I remember her fighting Bec. Bec def had the strength and size, but Mizuki lit her up on the feet anyway.
Lemos is a counter striker with power. You bring up Smith and I'm watching that now. One thing to keep in mind: Leslie is not that good. I don't think Mizuki will be using as much pressure as Smith did, but Lemos isn't going to able to get off the same strikes as she did against Smith because Mizuki is a far, far better striker than Smith. Smith is real sloppy on the feet. I imagine that Miz will have seen how Lemos reacts to the pressure that Smith put on her as well.
Hard to find a lot on Lemos, but looking at some of her older fights, she seems to rely too much on that counter striking for me. Mizuki is great defensively and I just can't see Lemos doing enough.
I am thinking of Live Betting that one though. Not sure why lol.
Back to a bit more on Agapova vs Dobson:
I'm rewatching a bit of Dobson and some stuff is really standing out.
First, Aga is a kickboxer and she's pretty freaking wild in the exchanges. Dobson's only real strength is her boxing, and a boxer usually has good success against a kickboxer, especially a more wild one.
Dobson fought Mazo, who is a tall kickboxer like Aga. Mazo is less wild though. In the first minute Mazo went high with strikes I think, but then ended with a kick to the body which hurt Dobson badly. Pick any of Aga's fights and you'll see she absolutely loves the 1-2 then body kick combo. Against Conners she literally spammed that attack and it led to the finish. Makes me think she'll be looking for it again against Dobson early.
I feel like Dobson is probably just going to get overwhelmed early and finished somehow, but then, something tells me it's going to be a bit more competitive than the betting lines suggest. Not much more competitive though, mind you.
Might just do Aga only to win. Might do her to win by anything other than decision. Dobson is real hittable from what I'm seeing.
