    His footwork to get in position was what made it great. The actual punch is nothing special.

    Ricky got up from that. PAC has a better left hook, Ricky was almost in a coma.

    Half of ESB had no idea that the term 'Check hook' even existed before this fight.

    Great example of moving your man into your shot. One second, Ricky thought he had Mayweather in the corner and was going to inflict some damage. The next second he was bouncing off the corner and landing on his ass.

    For me,that punch is all about using the other guy's momentum to maximum effect.It's not the hardest punch you'll see but it's a fabulous display of perfectly anticipating an opponent's next move and using it against him.

    Beautiful shot but how he set it up was even better.

    It's a combination of a feint, foot movement and timing.

    He did the same thing to Ortiz.

    Special fighter. The only one I watch right now, and won't say a word while he's on. Just sit and learn.

    I've always thought Marquez would be right up your street as well.I like to think you fight like a southpaw version.
