Unless you have amazing Roy Jones-like reflexes, nothing can make up for lack of defense if you have a vulnerable chin.
At cruiser mabye. But he wont be able to do that against bigger men. I agree as well with RDJ, that right hand connected waay waay too much. If that was Wlad he would have been brutally KO'd.
I don't think he has a poor defence. The thing is that fighters who carry their leads hand low are often critizised for having a poor defence when they are tagged, but when a more 'both hands up' boxer gets tagged(like Mormeck did) no one says a thing!!
