Q: When you are studying film, what are the things you focus on to improve your game?

When studying film the two biggest things I look at is hand placement and footwork. By winning the point of contact with my hands and having my feet in the right place, it will make it harder for any defender to beat me. Also while watching film being able to see what habits my defender has it will make it easier in the game to be able to win my one on one matchups.
