The point of an effective clinch is to lock the arms off so you can't punch. Note Holyfield didn't too well against Ruiz jab and grab
Right but Tyson would have to land and consistently. Tyson can't get off inside if Wlad is holding both his arms. I just see Tyson getting tired...
Why, Buster Douglas managed it. Tyson said Lennox was too big for him.
I wouldn't put any money on this fight because it could go either way
Wlad's jab is probably the best ever in the division. Vitali's jab is very functional. Both of them constantly land first because they were 6'7...
Calazaghe's style was based on Ray Leonard his favourite fighter and his southpaw style maybe came from Hagler. Greb had no such rolemodels....
Hearns jab is great, the thing about Holmes jab though is he still dominated with it against men that were as rangy or even rangier. He'd use it...
In modern days you have protein shakes, creatine, mass shakes not to mention steroids and other things. None of these were around in the 50s...
You can do this if you have the arm length and height advantages. You can essentially punch and not get punched from range if you use your range...
He beats them all relatively comfortable. Chavez is too small and levels above the other 2
There's allot of factors here with the straight right: Straightness and technique - Arguello/Wlad Hiding the punch - Mayweather/Toney Speed of...
I don't think Angelo was a hands on manager. Ali was trained by Archie Moore before this. Archie said he wish he had more time with Ali to teach...
No one said Galivan yet? Leonard copied that shot against Hagler, 1 of the most eye catching of the match Chavez and Barrera had hooks than loop...
Do you include Duran, Chavez and Castillo in this type of argument? How about Ricky Hatton? Obviously not as good. Jesus Chavez was a little guy...
You can easily say the same about Chavez and Bud though
