      I'd say Arthur Abraham, cause I almost never seen him get hit clean even in the 1st Miranda fight.
      i can't comprehend when there is an AVATAR of a chick like that..

        Peek-a-Boo is a boxing style where the hands are placed in front of the boxer's face. It offers extra protection to the face and makes it easier to jab the opponent's face.

        Peek a boo boxing was developed by legendary trainer Cus D'Amato. Peek a boo boxing utilizes relaxed hands with the forearms in front of the face and the fist at nose-eye level, as opposed to the orthodox style where the hands are at chin level with the left hand slightly in front of the chin and the right hand next to the chin. Other unique features includes side to side head movements, bobbing, weaving and blind siding your opponent. The number system e.g. 3-2-3-Body-head-body or 3-3-2 Body-Body-head is drilled with the stationary dummy and on the bag until the fighter is able to punch by rapid combinations with what Cus calls "bad intentions". The style allows swift neck movements as well quick duckings and the bad returning damage, usually by rising uppercuts or even rising hooks

              Thank you. I have no clue what those other guys were talking about. You tell Winky he has a peak a boo style and he'd probably laugh at you.

                  Well, first of all, the hands aren't nearly as high in a peek-a-boo defense as they are in a turtle shell/ear muff defense, the peek-a-boo has the hands more at chin/nose level while the turtle shell/ear muff lives up to it's name where you place your hands at around ear level. There's much more head movement with the peek-a-boo, lot's more bobbing and weaving, much more foot movement.

                  The turtle shell/ear muff that Winky and Abraham uses are pretty much to stand in front of their opponents and catch their shots with their arms and elbows and then come back with their own shots, the peek-a-boo was much more about not getting hit while being aggressive, it creates more angles and allowed you to get inside because of the foot and head movement. They're totally different.

                      Why? Because nobody can concentrate on anything you're saying.

                      Why? The picture so conveniently placed to the left of your post.
