    tyson had the hands down best peek a boo style. Winky showed it in the Tito & taylor fights.
    Cotto has used the peek a boo style.

      The style of those fighters you mention emulate the defensive style of European boxers more than the true "peekaboo" that was thought by Cus D'Amato.

      The style of the fighters mentioned are more Brazilian ear muff type - the kind to just take the punches on the gloves instead of using body and head movement to evade.

      For instance, Winky's fight against Tito. The guy just kept the earmuffs on and blocked Tito's shots all night. I don't remember him slipping anything.

        The peek-a-boo defense is what like the likes of Patterson and Tyson used, it's not the same as the turtle shell that Winky or Abraham uses.

                    Winky is a pimp. Yeah he lost the PW fight but dont forget he had PW connecting at 20%.

                    Thats 800 of those 1000 missing.
