    So how exactly did he pick it up?
    {was it from a trainer, watching others, just instincts}

    it must be my lack of experience overall with the "Soviet" fighters then because most of the ones I get to see do not fight like this.

      Tszyu was an amazing fighter, he had his hands down about half way through the clip because he knew he could slip Vernon's punches
