    Abraham's footwork is just hilarious, I need to see this Ikeke fight, cos i would have picked Kingsley over him going into the fight, but someone did say Ikeke took the fight at very short notice.

          I still see some flaws in JMM and in Manny

          JMM has a tendency of dropping his defense COMPLETELY when he has hurt his opponent and tries to finish him off that he gets taged and sometimes dropped (Barrera and 2nd Manny fight) he did it again in the Casamayor fight as well but he actually hurt Casa so much he wasn't able to defend himself.

          Manny still lounges in while he throws his combinations, yea he is fast as hell but anyone that can time him rushing and jab him will stop him in his tracks, and I notice Morales did it in the 1st and 2nd fight and Marquez in both fights and it seems to work if they keep moving to the right to avoid the straight left (his best punch) and boxes him, Manny has had problems dealing with that and because of it he loses a lot of rounds he could have won.

          But its obvious all elite fighters have a few flaws.

            Every fighter has flaws, i think Vic Darchinyan has major flaws in his game, I think Ricky Hatton has flaws with leaving himself open a lot. Paul Williams, who is one of my favorite fighters, has defensive flaws. Mosley always keeps his hands in a dangerous stands, which is why Vernon nearly knocked him out, and Cotto was able to land flush a bunch of times. Cotto is a sucker for uppercuts. Margarito uses his chin to block to much. I could go on forever.

              Just to make a point, every fighter has flaws, but im talking about those highly rated fighters that you look at and think.

              "Somebody is gonna expose that soon" or "How can people not see he does this wrong".

              Serious problems that are gonna cost these guy fights or already have.

                It's amazing to me that Juan Urango is ranked when his entire offense is based almost solely off of hooks.

                    Paul Williams. I don't think I've ever watched a fight of his where he didn't take a couple good shots to the noggin'. His defense can be alarmingly bad at times.

                      A glaring one for all his talent is Amir Khan's non existent head movement and terrible foot positioning
