As much as I don't like him I think Pauli showed great defense in both of his fights with Diaz and has over his career in general.

He's a guy with very little power and prefers to box and move but never in a way that you can call him a runner.

Winky against Tito. Untouchable.

Sturm vs De La Hoya

Locche vs Fuji - 1968

- Fuji refused to start the 10th round out of frustration because of exhaustion and his inability to connect punches.

Now THATS defence.

Here's one round of brilliant defense.

Hopkins vs Tito. Infact, no one talks about it but I thought that Hopkins KO was maybe the best, most skilled thing I have ever seen in boxing. He toyed with him all night but the KO was crazy how he knew Tito was going to throw the left hook, Hopkins blocked it with his own left arm, then came right back with the right hand that dropped him. Maybe most beautiful thing Ive ever seen. People forget how much of a beast a prime Hopkins was.

diaz was too small to even reach him. paulies defense isn't very good when he fought people his own size like cotto, hatton or ngoudjo. for a "slick" boxer he sure gets hit a lot.
