    In my opinion a lot of its more like fencing so it completely different kind of defense in my view.People are nor necessarily throwing with hurtful intentions so someone who looks adequate defensively at this level could be found lacking at the next level and not be as good as might think defensively.

    Well to be fair going undefeated for 6 years and winning world titles in that period, your defense can't be to shabby!

    As much as it pains me to say this, Darren Hamiltons ear muff defense has been pretty effective on the Domestic Level.

    He Gets spanked at world level though

    John Ryder's trainer is Colin Lake, not a Sims, either Peter or Tony. The latter is his manager. Lake is pure class.
