      Man I done seen Floyd Sr. and Roger Mayweather do it. No way did he invent it, he was damn good at coming foward and not getting hit

          There's nothing new in boxing.

              Rolling with the punches it much different that the shoulder roll defense as it is being discussed in this context.

              Rolling with the punches refers to the act of turning with them to take the steam off, not deflecting with with your shoulder.

                If I recall correctly, Floyd Jr. mentioned two old guys who invented the "Shoulder Roll" back in the days.

                I don't remember the video he said it in, but it was sometime last year.

                  That's correct.
