    Hey @jabvargas24

    Check out this video from 1945 of Willie Pep, one of the greats. Look at how much style he had in the ring.

    Great elusive defence not just because of clever neat feet but lateral movement constantly changing angles and brilliant anticipation. That ability to read the other fighter meant that he was also fantastic at walking his opponent onto shots (often short sharp hooks) like a freshwater fisherman who has grown up with the perch that he is trapping. You know their habits by always watching and learning and you start to predict the lines they move in. Great technician and artist.

    @Rantcatrat Nice video. Pep was definitely a skilled boxer. Even today still amazing to see work like his.
