One of Pantoja's tricks as fights go into later rounds is to jab against active aggression and to get breathing space. More clever applications see him convert to frames, left hooks or clinch attacks. It's very plausible to see him try and counterjab Van if things go longer.

To deal with Gaethje's jab, Holloway stood right at the edge of the pocket, messing with Gaethje's expectations as to when he would counter or commit, or if he'd step in or out. This allowed him to stay at a range the jab wouldn't land and constantly step-in to threaten it.

Thread: The reason Gaethje's jab was so effective? B/c he made a targeted effort to prevent Topuria from feinting or disguising his step-ins. Gaethje's jab wasn't just effective because it was active. The volume and deliberate timing as Topuria stepped in - feint or not - helped.

Thread: The best way to understand Ilia Topuria's game is that it's built around manipulating reactions from his opponents with his combined mix of feints, patience, and insistency. Topuria is incredibly economic with and when he throws. This is mainly done through his half-step.

Many believe adjustments are usually complex, but, as Eddie Alvarez showed in his win against Justin Gaethje, they can be simple: If Gaethje likes the clinch, make it the worst place to be & keep the pace high to continue tire him out in the war of attrition. (Article below)
