    Who are some fighters that I could watch some tape on that fight out of a crouch or a semi crouch??

    What are your opinions of this style? It seems like you dont see it as often as you used to.

    yeah, I agree that it is not used by many any longer. Frazier fought out of a crouch at times. I know there were several others, but I'm drawing a blank right now.

    Frazier, Moore, Marciano.... all modified to their style.

    Actually, maybe Morrison more recently? Qawi?

    YES ! I was going to say Marciano as the main one, but Qawi is an absoulute great example, especially vs Holyfield.
