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.Quote:

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?
Good videos. Loved the vid Sweet Pea posted. But this is my favorite. Check out the middle. Amazing.

Nice... I've seen that one ages ago, it's been on my ipod for a month already.
I love the Pernel, and Nas clips. To top it off Nasseem lands a big bomb after he swtiches it up.
Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwG-A4-t4GI ;)
Thanks I didn't see that one before. Have a CC ;)Quote:

Nicolino Loche is a standup fighter, reserved and economical he's also been called untouchable and here some examples why:

Here's one of the great defensive masters, Charley Burley. He was very slick and unorthodox, he could lead with either hand, and definately knew how to get out of the way of a punch.

All videos were great. Gotta love Roy Jones with his hands behind his back dodging punches, then boom! The other guy is eating canvas.
Can't watch the videos on account of slow internet but I'm a big Locche fan. Really, one of my favorites of all times. I should know more about Burley, I find digging up articles on him to be a bit of a pain. He's referenced plenty, but couldn't find any fight reports really or anything other then short bios. Bookmarked the video, will watch on a faster connection CC Chris.
very nice clip! ;)
He's a Korean K1 fighter by the name of Hong Man CHoi... well over 7 feet tall...Quote:
