Fighters with the worst footwork.....

Adamek
Margarito
Williams

 

Vitali's isnt bad at all. He doesnt get out of position or off balance, he is hard to hit. It might look weird, but I mean he has had knee surgery and came from a kick boxing background. His stance in his kickboxing fights looks a lot similar.


I would say Haye is pretty ****. For someone with fast hands and natural athleticism he sure fails around like a fish out of water and against pretty **** immobile opposition.

 

Yeah williams is pretty bad, thats the biggest reason he got KOed by martinez he was in a bad position when he got caught with the shot. I dont think his chin is bad, just that he wasnt balanced and didnt see the shot coming and his chin wasnt tucked so his brains shook around like a bobble head.


Look at mayweather against shane, he took a monster shot but got through it because his chin was tucked, his feet were in a good position and he saw it and had a split second to brace for it. If he didnt have those fundamentals in place when he took the shot he would have been KOed

 

Khan has a lot to improve in that area, again someone who is naturally so gifted with his hand speed but his footwork is pretty bad when he gets shaken up. But he is young so Roach has time to improve him unlike Haye who is too old to change and also naturally gifted but with **** footwork.

 

Dennis Andries.

 

Anyone remember Rafael Ruelas?

Had the footwork of a newborn calf!

 

Ricardo Mayorga.
Pipino Cuevas (all time worst footwork)

 

No - he hit him with a right hand as Floyd ducked, then as Floyd came back up Hatton was on him again throwing that lunging left hand that didn't really land, but made FM stumble because he was off balance. This is because Hatton's closes the distance well (although he doesn't move his head) and Mayweather had to adjust. I don't know how you can't see that right hand landing.

Right go to 10.13 on this video and tell me he doesn't land a right hand:

I seen the right hand land when Floyd was ducking,but there was no right hand landed when Floyd stumbled back.

Are you talking about that punch?

Here's what I saw.

Floyd ducks a right hand with his back against the ropes. Floyd gets off the ropes, does his signature jab to the belly, and Hatton's counters with a right hand that doesn't land cleanly. This right hand makes Floyd lose a bit of footing. Floyd gets embarassed for a moment.

Floyd tries to check hook, Hatton counters with his leaping hook, and Floyd stumbles to the ropes.

Floyd bounces off the right hand Hatton lands on him similar to this, so it's hard to spot:

sorry, man, but i think that adamek knows a little bit better since he's winning all his fights except one...

 

Mayorga. If only Forrest wasn't injured we would have never heard from this guy after that fight.

 

I always thought Adamek's footwork is one of his strong suits.Posting a vid in which his shoe is falling apart doesnt equate to his entire body of work.

 

yes, maybe you're right, the thing with adamek is he fights very unorthodox... saying to any professional fighter how he should chnage the way he fights/moves sometimes isn't a good way to improve his boxing imo
