That’s actually a beautiful sequence. Dolloway hits him with three hooks while he’s defensively backing up, and all the time he has his right hand glued to his chin, while having his left shoulder raised. Then he throws that right hook after a couple of punches miss the small target he is presenting. He was never in any trouble.
You can’t just rush a high level fighter, it’s like going into a meat grinder. I understand Dolloway is not a boxer, but that was extremely well done.
