    To you, maybe. But not every fighter elects to back-pedal or even literally run a bit when they get hurt. Clinching, moving to the ropes and raising the guard, or standing and exchanging, seem to be the most popular methods of response. To me that's running, although with circumstances attached - still running.

    COMPLETE IDIOCY!

    "BOXERS" like PBF and Whitaker would consistently run more in most of their fights than DLH did throughout those rounds!

    Witter ran like crazy against Judah.

    But the worst I recall was a Duran fight early in his career against a guy named Bizzarro. That guy was on the tour de' France in that fight. Duran chased and chased and finally caught him.

    I thought he was looking for just the right punch to take a dive on.

    He was terrified of Hopkins.

    derrick gainer was a good fighter from what i rememebr using his reahc and left hand really wel...then for some reason he turned into a complete runner. strange.


    mayweather isnt a runner it's just a great name to call a defencive fighter. you know it makes it sound like all he is doign is a cowardly un technical act when in fact he is using defencive techniques far superior to mos fighters.
