    Canzie. Too shifty, too slick, hits harder. Ritchie had basic skills, but Tony was an innovator as far as movement went. He wouldn't just square off and engage. He would dictate the action.

    Great to see Ritchie finally getting some recognition on this forum from someone other than myself!

    I think Ritchie's jab & punch variety could pose problems for Canzo in a similar manner as he received from Ross & Mandell. Canzo excelled as a counterpuncher, but he could be foiled by opponents that succeeded in limiting what he could counter.
