    Charley Burley.

    There's only one film as it is, and it'll focus the concentration.

    Or pat Cowdell vs Sal Sanchez.

    How to at times really befuddle a great fighter with just clever feints and a jab.

    Roberto Duran vs Carlos Palomino...the greatest exhibition of feinting that I've ever seen...he intimidated Palomino so much with those feints.

    Buddy McGirt vs Simon Brown is another classic.

    Feinted him into knots with the right hand.

    Jersey Joe Walcott seems the most obvious choice for me, he could really work some magic with his shoulders.

    As mentioned above Walcott is the best at feints for me no doubt, Archie Moore is up there too.

    DURAN-Leonard I
    BURLEY-Billy Smith
    HOPKINS-Pavlik

    These three would get you started.
