What boxer had the best shuffle???

[Reggie Miller]

Kid Gavilan was the first to do the shuffle, but Ali perfected it.

Would this count as a "shuffle":


Watch from 4:50 onwards, also 5:25.

Of course it's not like Ali's. I'm also not against discrediting Gavilan for its use since he claimed to have invented the "Bolo punch" (5:10 in the video) when in fact he did not.

Gavilan's opponent Bratton can also be seen using the Jake LaMotta trick "look away while I punch you in the face" at 5:15.

Thanks manchine. that was sick. i loved the look over there move

I thought Manny's shuffle in the fights against Marquez and Morales was pretty snazzy.

You make a very good point and I don't doubt what you're saying. But it was Ali who made it famous and certainly got people talking about it. And you're right, Gavilan's is not like Ali's
