    too much crab n hold. I like more fluid technic, like ali's or floyd's, moving without getting hit.

    Yes but this thread is about boxing IQ, not how well they fight. I've heard Bernard give great tehnical advice or explain how he does things. Floyd is more about gifts and reflex. Sure he's skilled, but I believe most of it is natural and I don't think he thinks about it as much as Hopkins does. The only time I ever heard him explain anything tehnical is in how he executed his check hook. Bernard could be a trainer.

    :yep I chose Sugar Ray Leonard. That boy was smart.
    His tactics vs Duran in the rematch, Hearns later in the fight and against Hagler put me up there

    yeah good call.

    prime sugar L. might be the only as athletic and fast as prime jones jr., with the difference sugar L. was a bit technicly more sound, not saying he had suberb reflexes as well :D

    how is the weather in georgia, did irene hit there as well?

    Too outgunned by other black stars.

    I'm actually going to go for Benny Leonard or Ali.

    Yeah Ray had some crazy speed and underrated power. His reflexes I would say wasn't as good as Roy though and maybe even Floyd, but he was one smart *******.

    and thanks for asking. I expected us to get some rain and maybe some thunder storms, but it's been sunny this whole time.
    They even say we're in a drought again :?
