    Good call. Both were brilliant on the inside against each other.

    What do you copy from Ali? Because much of what he does are things that most do well to stay away from.

    Campbell/Diaz was beatiful in my opinion. Talk about grinding someone down on the inside.

    Underrated fight, and in no way a SD. Campbell really beats the **** out of him.

    Diego Corrales was also a very good infighter. If your tall for your weight class and not a heavyweight he is very exciting to watch with his skils.

    Frank Klaus-Georges Carpentier.

    Klaus wrote the book on infighting... Literally.

    He wrote a book called "infighting a treatise on a long neglected art"

    Id say James Toney would be best to emulate overall. Chico took a lot of punishment, but Toney was awesome at slipping and countering on the inside, someone definitely you want to watch, although I believe infighting like that is a GOD given talent.

    definitly will watch him and mmight try and get his book

    Chico took heaps of punishment,

    On the inside i am defensive more like Toney, Mayweather etc.. and thats how im natural, im not trying to boast here but i have taken to it pretty well and just wanted to see fights so i could copy some more moves

    Always felt Miguel Canto was excellent on the inside so was Olivares both different but both great. Johnson and Tunney control in the clinch was excellent how they could tie up and opponent beat them up their and just totally control the other man when they got close.

    Check out Chavez against Rosario, Such subtle defensive moves to slip punches then comes back with three punch combo's always capped with a left hook to the body. over and over again. brilliant.
