    Everyones a sucker for a certain shot, mainly the uppercut but no fighter has every avenue closed off against varying opposition, no fighter is 100 % perfect

    Hmmmmmmmmmmm. If I showed a kid a boxer to help teach him, it would be Bernard Hopkins and Ray Leonard. And if the kid was a heavyweight, I would show him the great Larry Holmes.

    Kindelan was superior in almost every facet.

    A boxing match is a boxing match. Theres no rules that state every fight you are in needs to be exciting. If there is please show me.

    Floyd does not make mistakes. He drops his hands and pulls his head straight back intentionally. And nobody ever hit him for doing it. As if you watch his pad routine he practices that with roger constantly. LOL funny guys though.

    Well I teach my son Rafeal Marquez as I thinke he is a far better and more fluid puncher then his brother. His brother is a better counter puncher but Raf has the perfect offense. He throws everything fluid WITH POWER. Even his jab is devastating.

    Kindelan was a master boxer, but the amateur game is pretty different to the pro game, and we have no clue how he would have done -- although I DO think he would have done well, it shouldn't be taken for granted.

    Zab Judah hit him with a flush left straight in one of the early rounds that snapped Mayweather's head back and put him in a defensive shell for a handful of seconds, all because he caught Mayweather pulling his head back in a straight line.

    vernon forest is a damn near perfect boxer.

    best all-around fighters in my book would be robinson and toney.

    Mayweather is pretty horrible technically. He gets away with it because of extraordinary physical gifts. Roy Jones was similair. But Floyd is a good deal better than Jones technically, I think.

    'Thats a great post, Marquez is a highly under appreciated fighter, that guy is text book and if you were teaching young kids how to be a boxer then Marquez is a fighter you would show them'

    Watching both Marquez and Lopez is a beautiful thing, but Lopez is a better version of Marquez. Lopez is the boxer you would show to teach others.

    Marquez watched Lopez I believe.
