    When he is fighting bums he is confident against he only looks down once or twice a round.
    But in fights like Miranda and this one (which is his return bout plus in his hometown). He is more nervous than usual
    The looking down thing is a nervous habit
    Maybe just me. But I haven't seen another professional boxer do that. Not to the same extent. You might be right. Possibly hasn't had time to get nervous in several of his fights. Man has a few first round ko's.

      Well I'm taking back the **** I said about Allan Green...

      I thought he really was going to do some great **** in the sport, but something isn't right with that guy.

      And he is going to get KO'd or at least hurt badly at some point in his career when he looks down. That is not only ******, but it is also really annoying.

        Wow it amazes me how some people can write a fighter off after one lackluster performance where he won every round and didn't sustain any damage. WOW.

          Yeah good point I have seen all of Green's fights plus seen him spar a few times. And he has always done it. I've noticed it from very early on. And people just started noticing it against Miranda
          I think he'll explain next week on FNF as a guest. I bet you he admits its a nervous habit.
          He doesn't look down at anything or for any reason like Teddy Atlas was trying to say.

            green seems to have alot of skill, speed, power, defense yet he refuse to commit,and is content cruising to a ud! this ain't making it against a kessler, joe c., or the like! he is gonna have to be more daring, and engage himself more to compete at the top level. he has the talent, but he has to use it!

              If Mayweather put up a lackluster performance and did no damage against Henry Bruseles, and consistently and repeatedly did some ****** **** that left himself wide open, wouldn't you be a bit concerned?

              This is also coupled with his loss to Miranda, which makes two pretty bad performances.

              The scary thing is that Rubin Williams is not even a step up...

                  Yeah I know. I can't believe some people. Green seemed winded early on. Maybe its the surgery or the layoff. But you're right about people jumping in and out of bandwagons quick as can be!

                    It's obvious you don't know what TS is.
