    You mean the guy who threw over 100 punches a round? Yeah, sure, he never relied on his athleticism!

    Athleticism alone, his head movement while coming in was amazing, his punch variety was brilliant, he would counter most shots thrown at him, his tactics were always very clever compared to most fighters in the 90`s who couldn`t open fighters up like Joe could.

    What tactics? He relied on overwhelming opponents.

    That was Joe’s M.O

    He was one of the best combo punchers of the 90`s also.

    NOBODY ever mentions Joe being an elite combo puncher or a guy with world class head movement.

    Haye in his prime had world class head movement.

    Manny threw terrific combos, too.
