    My thoughts exactly. You're trying too hard.

    They can't see a double shift when the footage is in black and white?
    Explains a good deal...

    What was "double" about it? He only changed stance once?

    If Carnera walked on water, his critics would just say that he obviously couldn't swim!

    Difference was you could count to 10 during Primo's "shift" but Pirog took
    less than a second.

    Damn it's a shame about Pirog....would have loved to see him against GGG.

    I really wanted to see him against Sergio Martinez.

    My Grandma could stumble forward off balance with a more emphatic double shift. You are really reaching at this point.

    Carneras double shift is actually much quicker, as he doesn't plant his feet and turn his hips.
    The delusion is real

    Shifting is shifting. He's also a SHW.
    If your Grandma can do that, she can probably show more emphatic boxing mechanics than the Lewis Klitschko bout.

    When the right foot goes in front, shift #1.
    When the left foot goes back in front, shift #2.
