    Usyk will probably quit in the corner when Fury does a couple of shifts and hits him from weird unsighted angles. 270 pound man moving on him not stuck in the mud? No thanks.

    Klitschko was baffled by it. Clearly switch-hitting angles and movement is Ukrainians' kryptonite.

    Shane Mosley. He messed up a bunch of fighters, he had Oskee wondering what was going on.

    Holyfield as well

    It really is an art that only few can master. Even a guy like Crawford is much better when he stays in the southpaw stance. Even the best at it really only look good when they do it against inferior opposition. When you are in with somebody on your level I think it is always safest to stay in your natural stance.
