    youre actually proving my point, you should watch the video yourself and concentrate on the jab and what else is moving when he jabs.

    Hector Camacho often didn`t step in with the jab also.

    The feints he is throwing are jabs too. They don`t have to land to be jabs.

    a feint, is actually the equivalent of what you guys believe not moving your feet when you jab is, its a fake out to get you to react. you arent understanding what im saying, and the more you try and justify your incorrect beliefs, the more complicated it becomes to explain to you why things happen in the ring like they do. there are many instance where throwing a jab without stepping forward is required, but you do it because you have to, not because its the ideal technique for jabbing.

    there is no such thing as a step jab, thats the whole damn point, mark. thats like saying a jab punch. they dont need separate identifications, they are part of one movement.

    this is true. Many people say Mikey has this experience, but his resume is not that great for a 4 times champion Look at Hearns and Duran when they won the 4 titles. Legends after legends on the resume. But this is the time we live with watered down skills. Nevertheless, I am rooting for Mikey.

    Yeah, it's nuts. Pacquiao fought JMM, Barrera, and Morales before he got to welterweight.

    Mikey hasn't really fought someone Spence's level either. Mikey is probably a better boxer but he has physical disadvantages so Spence is not being overrated here. Most importantly, can Mikey take Gracia's powerful shots? If he can take them without a flinch then he will have a chance. We'll see whose 0 will go in this fight. My prediction : Spence wins by way of K.O. (the late stoppage).

    He is taking it as legit. This guy is easily the worst analyst I've come across. Guess who else Matt Fouts hates for no goddamned reason at all.

    Wrong. Jabbing on the back foot is often done without stepping. I
