    No doubt, hate how he ''wasted'' his career but really pleasing to watch

    On Danny Garcia, he doesn't much variation to his offense either. Just the hook, his right (which sometimes he throws looping, and sometimes he throws as a nice cross), and that's about it.

    I can't recall Danny ever throwing very many uppercuts, and he's never been much of a committed body puncher either.

    Yeah, Lopez, despite his disappointing opposition, is certainly one of the best offensive fighters in history.

    If there was a flaw to Lopez's game, it's that he wasn't much of an infighter.

    The way he puts his hips into those punches. This clip here could be used to show young fighters how to throw punches with devastating intent.

    He looked really nonchalant when he threw punches.

    His performance against Marvin Johnson is maybe my favorite display of body punching ever, but when he threw his right hand, he looked totally unconcerned with how he made himself a target. He looked very open for counters.

    99% of light heavyweights don't get up from the right hand that Spinks dropped Eddie with. I dont know how he got up, and lasted the distance.

    Louis had PERFECT punching mechanism, all based on timing, accuracy, velocity, and explosiveness. Almost all of his KOs were picture perfect and brutally artistic.

    Arbachakov and Finito Lopez are among the BEST punchers of the lower weight class. They're KOs were very Joe Louis-esque. Both picture perfect with their punching technique, although I do think Arbachakov might have been a little better in my opinion.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    Speaking of Shawn Porter's many victims. He split Berto's skull straight down the center like an axe, had Berto slurring about headbutts and elbows and all sorts of shit. :cl:
