    Holmes attempted Ali-esque footwork a number of times but failed horribly.

    Frazier mimicked Ali with his trash talking while dodging punches in the FOTC.

    Ray Leonard copying Kid Gavilan's flashy punch with the right hand - he did this against Duran in Montreal.

    Morales copied Garcia's winging hooks right in front of his face to mock him.

    Obviously he did that in the first fight.

    Yeah I think he even used the same numbers system for combinations that Tyson did. Stole his right hook to body uppercut to head too. He'd come in with an Iron Mike Towel

    He was managed by Bill Cayton so that explains it

    Shame he didnt have the chin to go with that style
