    Or hold behind the head... didn't quite like that against the smaller man. Kind of an Ali-esque move though.

    I don't particularly think of illegal defense when I think of Mayweather. I think brilliant defense. MAYBE he turns his back a LITTLE. IF he does...maybe it would be comparible to calling Lebron or Kobe for travelling?

    Ironically, i think the main reason why Floyd gets away with it is that because he doesn't get hit! Would Mayweather, say, gets hit behind the head while doing a move like that and then complain, most referees would say "don't turn your back."

    Every fighter uses illegal moves from time to time. Go to store an get some tampons, you're leaking Megan.
