    like how archie moore described charley burley and his head moving and teasing so the opponent reaches for you but then youre not there.

    archie moore did it a lot too.
    locche does it.

    who else?

    Moore was no serpent, he was the serpent killer... The Mongoose.

    Jim Corbett! A master of ducking with his head. It's on film. Off film, Young Griffo.

    Pernell Witaker might fit as well.
