    You could also have said, "what great fighters were especially good at setting traps".

    I'll tell you a guy you can look up if anyone's interested.
    Ray "Windmill" White from the Pacific NW, a MW-LHW white boy who's record is surely 'spotty' but I saw him several times on TV in the 70's and a have a few videos I've swapped with guys over the years.
    Never a serious contender but...wow, I can't imagine how he gave the fans their money's worth who came to his fights!
    The 'Windmill' nickname came from his backward punching, behind his back, into a fighter's face while in a clinch. :lol:
    Plus, he did the old "oh gosh, I'm hurt wobbly knees" thing before Ali only to come back and smash with a counter. :D
    Good thread.
