    Locche is seldom mentioned on here, I'm glad to see he's getting his due.

    Great video. Nas is very underrated in his defensive ability. Pea and Pep were absolutely amazing to watch.

    Nas was insane in this clip! And Pea at the end slipping punches almost sitting down against tito was great too.

    No way is he or Hopkins better defensively than Floyd.

    I dunno why Naz stopped doing that style he went so much more flat footed later on

    Because if he continued, he would have got caught and dropped far more often against the better fighters he faced later in his career.

    Nas's **** is ****ing sick. That round with Benitez and Hearns was quality too.

    Actually Naz was extremely overrated in that area. His reflexes were nowhere near as good as he liked to think they were. What he could do well is give awkward angles.
