    Im going with James Kirkland on this one. I have never seen a fighter that moves like him. He glides like one of those bugs you see on lake water. You dont notice his feet moving.

    Nah, like Pimp said, you can have the fastest footspeed in the world, but then have terrible footwork. A good example of this = Khan has good footspeed, yet horrible footwork.

    And the opposite, there are plenty of examples. :good

    Pac should get mnore props. Pac gets shitted on for lunging too much but it's actually Pac's footwork that allows him to overcome all the size and reach advantages he regularly faces at welter. It's also the source of his vaunted power.
