No I said that WAAAY back when he fought Yoel Romero. That was my exact prescription. He did exactly what I said he needed to do. And the REASON it worked is because of a hole in Izzy's game the YOU clearly don't see. And the retard made fun of me first, ok? So fuck you Chael.

Hym "And the problem with Izzy is that he's too invested in his game plan. What does he do? He sits on the outside and tries to rope dudes in to chasing him and THAT is when he picks them part. And that's why the Yoel fight was so illuminating because if you take that away from him what does he do? He just fucking stands there. If you don't chase. If you don't over extend. Izzy doesn't switch to a different game plan. If you take away his ability to control the space by walking him down (Like a Tonberry) then what happens? Sean Strickland happens. AND Alex Pereira kind of. Alex Pereira fucked up when he over-committed to chasing after him when Izzy rolled backwards. Getting you to chase is the entire game-plan. Don't do that. If he's hurt just let him BE HURT. So, to answer your question, what he NEEDS to do is take some initiative and set the pace of the fight HIMSELF (For once) instead of waiting for his opponent to do it. He doesn't even need to do this for the whole fight. He needs to initiate, stick and move, high volume, get ahead on the scorecard so that Sean HAS to play his game rather than sitting there and WAITING for him to play his game.
He'll HAVE to do what Izzy wants him to do. It's like a forcing move in chess. But if he ISN'T AHEAD on the scorecard guys are always going to be able opt-out to choose not to play. That being said, that might not even be something Izzy is able to do. It would be an entire 180⁰ from what he usually does. Like Deontay Wilder fighting off his back foot. Beyond that he could get caught coming in or (more likely) could end up getting wrestled. So, the correct answer to your question might be 'nothing.' Scissors doesn't ever beat Rock. It could just be not a great match-up for him. And I feel like the feinting thing is a trap. It isn't ever about feinting more or less. It's about feinting effectively. Mixing up your feints (Hand feint, shoulder feint, step feint (Which is how Alex Pereira caught Strickland in THEIR fight), and kick feints) and setting them up with strikes. Feints grow less effective over time if you aren't landing the corresponding strike. The reason Tommy Fury's shoulder feint is so effect is because of his weird symmetrical hooks and that slow jab that he does sometimes (It's good to throw jabs of different speeds). It's a good jab. Very much like a Tonberry."

Tornberry 

A user who has been in the internet scene for nearly a decade as of today (May 8th, 2005). He

uses a consistent name throughout, thus he is easily identifiable no matter where you may look on

the internet.

Some may find offense to his witty remarks and plethora of crass and upfront sarcasm; however, this

does not phase his character in the least bit. Just like his name, he stays true to his persona,

regardless of the circumstances.

A "Jack of no trades", he holds average skills spread throughout the spectrum and he will use

whatever power he has to help others, unlike the majority of holier-than-thou administrators and

operators. It's not the size of your E-penis that counts, after all. Since Tornberry is not a

phony or a fraud, one can trust him. Don't let his childlike personality fool you.

Tornberry can be found on various message boards and on certain channels and networks on IRC,

such as irc.Rizon.org.

Did I mention he's really kick-ass and awesome? Don't believe me? Well, then check out his IRC

conversations: http://www.livejournal.com/~tornberry
