It showed throughout his career from as early as the 'Azabache' Martinez fight (which is IMO in his top 3 performances) JCC did have defensive skills but more times then often he decided to trade shots without caring much how often he got tagged.
True enough. However, upon watching some early fights against Medina and ramirez that his head movement was greatly underrated. To a lesser extent he showed a bit in fights like juan la porte.
Have you got all his fights mick?
81 out of 115... I don't have a lot of his early fights. :(
From when his career started.

Marvin Hagler was underrated for his defensive skills
but Marvin had the advantage of not always having to use them as he had one of the strongest chins in history

Thats really great Mick, cool.
I'm really interested in Him and Duran at the moment. I guess I aspire to box like them and I watching the limited supply I can get my hands on at the moment.
