With Kirkland's style you cant obtain better defense. He is a super pressure fighter, comes in there with his fists swinging. He choose to lack defense to increase offense. Sort of like Margarito. Pressure fighters like those have like 70% offense and 30% defense. Can't balance defense on that kind of style. If he worked on his defense, you would have to take away his aggressiveness.

I agree with these posts.
The guy is a hard punching machine, but he just walks straight forward and overwhelms his opponents, and doesn't have a granite chin. Whats gonna happen when he meets an opponent who doesn't fold under his pressure? He'll have no answer for it.
