Boxing is about small, precise movements in rapid succession, not wide sweeping commitments. “Train Small” is the idea that when you train, you should allow yourself as little ‘fat’ on your movements as possible – the goal is to dodge by just a hair. Boxing may be fought in three minute rounds, but results are decided through interactions that usually only last a few seconds each. Canelo understands this, and if you watch him, he very rarely swings with wide punches or gets far out of the way of a punch. Usually he only moves enough to barely avoid being hit.
