    Effortless defence based on footwork and positioning

    Bivol using his high guard against Canelo was really cool also. Plenty of British fighters can show why a tight high guard is a waste of time against little Nelo but Bivol did it right.

    I could watch Whitaker all day. The only reason people found him boring is because there were more explosive fighters around when he was on top.

    Winky Wright's high guard is the best I've ever seen even if it isn't a flashy form if defence.

    I do agree. Tony may also have been the most relaxed, fluid fighter ever. His calmness, ring Iq and ability to remain composed under pressure was one of the best I have ever watched. There was just something about Toney.
