    First of all imitation gets you everywhere, Ali imitated Gorgeous George and Sugar Ray Robinson.

    Mike Tyson imitated Floyd Patterson...in fact just about everything you learn is based on imitation:blood

    Yeah but not blind imitations, you watch great fighters to see things and than you adapt it to your own style, he tried to be 100% Floyd, while he doesnt have footwork, ring IQ, reflexes and has **** defense...yeah i said it **** defense can you imagine Floyd being hit by wild and very wide shots Broner got hit with.
