Kavanagh is a plus athlete first and foremost. It’s clear from the speed with which Kanavagh can change directions or burst forward that he’s built for power, a trait that comes through in his heavy punches and running double leg alike. From a more technical standpoint, Kavanagh is a tricky kicker who relies on good in-and-out movement to set up his hands. There is no easy way to defeat Moreno, who almost never gets finished and will scrap it out to the very end. That said, the focus should be on taking away Moreno’s best weapons, namely that jab. If Kavanagh can focus on using his kicks — like that crafty lead leg snap kick — to interrupt Moreno’s dipping jab and general head movement, it will go a long way in making him easier to hit. Generally, Kavanagh his to force exchanges and take chances here. He’s not going to be slicker than the former champion, but he’s much younger in fight years. His chin is fresher, and Kavanagh’s punches certainly pack a wallop. He probably needs to hurt Moreno at least once to win this fight, so (somewhat responsibly) jumping into the fire on occasion might be necessary for that to happen.
