Nice Vid! Good combination of intuition, experience, speed... and some counters were nasty

CC nice video... defnsive fighting is an art and its nice to see some appreciation for it.

CC for a great vid

Who was that fucking HUGE chinese kickboxer?

Dont know if you remember, but the 1st Ali v Frazier fight I think it was the 9th start of the round Ali gestured to Frazier to try and hit him Frazier said you try and hit me and dropped his hands Ali couldnt Joe slipped all his Jabs. It was that rd that won the fight and the mind games for Joe, It works both ways. I loved Whittaker doing his thing he did it in a phone box He knew what the other guy was going to do before he did, amazing.

Here's a good youtube clip that's been posted here before, it's titled "The Art of Defensive Boxing"

Who's the fighter at the end of that video? dodging punches with his hands down

Pete was amazing , always in position to strike. and as elusive as a mongoose . He did defense right..

Ever saw Wilfred Benitez fight ?
He had a radar for detecting incoming punches

I was about to bring him up. Absolutely cracking fighter, one of the most underated ever.

In his prime you couldnt hit SWETPEA with a handful of gravel a defensive great for sure and one of the great fighters of the modern era .

it's nice to see i'm not the only one who appreciates good defense.

CC,super super videos! Someone should make one of Mayweather,he has the BEST defence in boxing right now bar none. My fave out of those was Pernell v Oscar,Pernell made him look foolish,why the heck Oscar was raising his hand

Bump.Awesome vid,whats the link?
