Before closing this boxing customization manual, I’d like to take a look at three penultimate boxers, the first being the man on the cover of the book, Henry “Hammering Hank” Armstrong. Henry was the type of fighter that burns brightly ad fades all of a sudden, and, while he fought, had the best work rate in the sport. In all he fought about 250 bouts but only got credit for just over 100, almost all for them knockouts.
In the second video link he fights Barney Ross, who was a fantastic fighter. When watching these old timers remember how much nullification is going on because of the opponent’s sigh skill and experience level. I guy that dances away from everyone, when he meets his equal—can look like he is standing still. Armstrong’s manner of watching the feet meant he had his opponent’s hips in his peripheral vision, which enabled him to synchronize their demise by adding their leverage commitment to his. Listen to the haggling between the ref and the corner man before the bell.
