Slipping and Dodging

[fuga]

This is for Troy.

I couldn't quite find the boxer I was looking for (his name continues to slip me) but this a great video for what we were working on this weekend.

his name continues to slip me

Damn, he's so good, even his name slips and dodges you...

I think I recognized Pernell Whitaker in a couple of the more impressive bits of that vid, and of course Prince Naseem Hamed. Here are two of my own favorites:

Here's who I was thinking about:

LOL! Dayum! Very nice!

nice movement. what Mir needs against Lesnar. unfortunately 18 year old flyweights are much faster than 30 year old heavyweights but he should still have better agility and movement than Lesnar.

here's an old timer showing some bobbing and weaving

no takedown to gnp allowed in that one, though.

What happens when a good fighter is ready for your bobbing and weaving.

One of the things that worked for Barrera was that he wasn't afraid of Nas' power. Most other fighters were cautious about being caught with one of his knockout hits and would often only throw a few punches before backing off. Barrera however just kept driving in. Damn good fight.
