The undefeated Frenchman라이브 바카라 rise to the top might have surprised fans, but he has put years into his craft to reach these great heights and achieve success.바카라 웹사이트
Here, we break down the 26-year-old라이브 바카라 game ahead of his first World Title defense at the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.바카라 웹사이트
A Simple Formula
Nicolas uses a simple formula that works well without overcomplicating his offense. 바카라 웹사이트
Although he spent most of his earlier years in savate – a French martial art that has a reputation for flashy kicks – “Barboza” took to the professional kickboxing rule set instantly and looks like a veteran only two years later.바카라 웹사이트
The Mahmoudi Gym representative bases his attacks mostly on punches and low kicks, more akin to what is known as the Dutch style.바카라 웹사이트
While he can intersperse other techniques, they are less frequent, which can make them more unexpected and effective when he does try to launch flying knees or spinning kicks. 바카라 웹사이트
Heavy Low Kicks바카라 웹사이트
Low kicks are one of Nicolas’ most effective weapons, which again shows his adaptability from savate, in which only the foot is allowed to make contact. 바카라 웹사이트
Now, the Frenchman chops his opponents down with his shins at full power, often employing them early and often to lay his foundations. 바카라 웹사이트
This was the case in both of his ONE wins over and Eersel, as his first-round bludgeonings of their lead legs set him off to strong starts.
Those strikes can hinder any attempts to close the distance and rack바카라 웹사이트up damage for the later rounds.바카라 웹사이트
As those rivals become more wary of his low kicks, “Barboza” switches up well to the body and occasionally the head, while also bringing in his heavier boxing combinations. 바카라 웹사이트
A Concussive Right Hand바카라 웹사이트
Nicolas throws heavy hands, but his biggest tool is a straight right that he relies upon to do most of the damage. 바카라 웹사이트
He라이브 바카라 not a prolific jabber, but he will set up a long right behind it or simply lead with the power hand to the head. It is a concussive strike that has knocked out several opponents and even produced a key knockdown of Eersel. 바카라 웹사이트
The power of the punch forces big reactions from his foes, which can then open up Nicolas’ left hooks to the body or head. 바카라 웹사이트
It only takes one right hand to change the course of a fight, and “Barboza” knows he always has that in his locker. 바카라 웹사이트
A Threat Under Fire
Staying long with straight punches and kicks is Nicolas’ wheelhouse, but he라이브 바카라 also comfortable under fire and inside the pocket. If his opponents press, he can stand his ground to counter and won’t be bullied in close.바카라 웹사이트
By planting his feet and swinging hard, the Frenchman poses a dangerous threat that means his adversaries can’t attack with impunity.바카라 웹사이트
When Eersel tried to build up some momentum and press in their first meeting, “Barboza” welcomed him in with a crunching right hand that put him on the canvas. 바카라 웹사이트
Unbroken Confidence바카라 웹사이트
Technique and attributes are crucial, but they are fortified by a fighter who truly believes in his ability to win. 바카라 웹사이트
At 24-0 in his professional career, Nicolas only knows success, and this will allow him to fight confidently with a belief in his own skill set. 바카라 웹사이트
He was the underdog in his first matchup with Eersel but didn’t let that faze him, earning a hard-fought decision over five rounds. 바카라 웹사이트
Now that he라이브 바카라 shown he can defeat “The Immortal” when few expected he could, Nicolas will surely enter the rematch with even more conviction in his ability to retain the gold. 바카라 웹사이트
