    Great showing how good Holy was on a technical level, how should Holy`s ring IQ be rated out of 10?

    The modern martial artist, he does a lot of decent boxing vids because he consideres boxing a martial art.

    Thanks Mark, after watching now I'm boxing like Holyfield!

    In seriousness, good vid as expected from TMMA. It's interesting that his footwork was refined in the same vein as Benny Leonard and even McFarland, or Driscoll. Fighting Harada, Shibata and Watanabe also used these constant motions. Kenshiro, Inoue and Fury are very good at this in the current fighters.
