Weaknesses of the Philly Shell Defense that Floyd and Broner use?

suuuuuuuuuuuuuuureeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee they did
























racist

 

LOL, because I point out the truth that makes me a racist.

 

James Toney coined the term when he first started as an amateur. He was eating a philly cheese steak but the rumor is that while making some eggs in the morning the shell fell in the left overs hence the philly shell.

Its also why he is nicknamed James "fridge lights out" Toney.

 

Overhand right.

 

Holy **** is that true? Can't be.

I've been researching and someone somewhere said they heard an announcer mention it during Toney-Jirov. Other people said the video-games.

 

You would think a guy whos favorite fighter is Floyd would know thats not true.

 

Michael Nunn vs James Toney would be a good fight to watch. Nunn was a good technician who was winning the earlier rounds using lateral movement, maybe the southpaw stance had an effect also.

 

fridge lights out! laughed so hard on the crapper i freaked out my dog. great work.

 

The only fighter to ever dominate Toney/Floyd/Broner was a Prime Roy Jones Jr. in his domination of James Toney. Now can anyone name a current fighter and any weight division that has anything close to the Athleticism, Speed and Skill of a Young, Prime Roy Jones Jr.? Floyd much older now, and is more calculating in the ring compared to his style as a 130lbs - 140lbs fighter. To me it's not about "what are the weaknesses of their style"...Be cause any fighter can stand in the ring with their hands in the "Philly Shell" (example, Berto tried it and got spanked by fighters he should have easily beaten).

But what people fail to realize because they're are so focused on their "Style" is that Toney/Floyd/Broner are incredible athletes (before the cheese popcorn and chicken n' waffle diet, Toney was a phenomenal athlete) they all possess boxing intelligence, High Ring IQ, superior talent, expert defense, a complete overall skill set with elite level stamina. So as I said before....it's not about their weaknesses, but what fighter out there has the "talent" to nullify all of Toney/Floyd/Broner's gifts in the ring?
