    Tyson does it a little and so does Winky Wright.

    I use it sometimes depending on the lad I'm fighting... if they're a short little scrapper I'll let them self's punch themselfs out and then finish them off

    Like winky Wright I'm lucky that I can cover the floating rips and most of my head up at the same time...

    of course the downside to the peek-a-boo is that your jab is farther away from your target (thus takes longer to get there) so use it wisely.

    Its when you put both of your gloves up to your chin..

    Only your eyes and top of the head are an opening and the rest of you is covered..

    Mike does it after every exchange.

    He would punch then when he backs up he picks his hands up to his chin and uses it to get on the inside...Watch mike and you cant miss it..

    Winky does not do it, winky is like ..behind a barricade style....or something.

    Winky does it, not as much as his other techniques but he can do it and cover most of his body... Tyson was open to the body a lot of the time when he did it but got away with it because of being the shorter man

    hey my trainer teaches me the bobbing and weaving style, whats the difference, arn't they the same?

    by the way you cant really learn this style without a proper trainer cos of there is alot of trial and error stages!

    It first took off after the battle of Hastings in 1066 as it was noticed, that if you kept your hands up, you wouldnt get caught in the eye.

    Watch both of the Peterson Brothers fight, they do it all of the time...

    Anthony and Lamont Peterson...

    Its ok, but I feel it may show some weakness to some judging and could cause problems...

    Fighters that have good trainers will teach their fighters to punch through that type of defense....I mean by basically just beating the fighters glove....Example is, Winky vs. Jermain, Winky uses Peek a boo and Taylor threw right through it with power punches...

    NEEDED TO CORRECT SPELLING!!

    As for uppercuts (ANSWERING THIS POST BELOW ME WITHIN THIS CORRECTION)

    Almost all styles are subject to uppercuts, the way to defend against uppercuts is good tight positioning with the arms and gloves and movement....
