i don't remember when i seen a current boxer in the last year or so that had great head movement and slip punches correctly or even try to move their head more then an inch. can you guys name some fighters THAT ARE NOT MAYWEATHER, with good head movement?
can anyone name a current boxer with great head movement???

If you're talking about overall upper body movement then Pacquiao, Urango and Katsidis come to mind immediately.
Whether or not they're effectively slipping punches is another issue, but at least they're energetically moving their head and not providing a stationary target.Last edited by PittyPat; 05-28-2010, 09:33 PM.Comment

i've always thought pacquiaos head movement was great, especially the way he punches out of it, and how he keeps it going the entire fight. i think his earlier fights (pre lightweight) showcase it a bit more.
andre ward also has pretty great head movement, he rarely gets hit clean.Comment

katsidis last fight he didn't use it as much..i think he getting into more offense without moving his head. you think he fight like tyson with the way he bleedsComment

Huh? His head movement was extreme in the Mitchell fight. He was bobbing and weaving all over the place.
And a funny thing about Pacquiao is that he's started to move his upper body less since the De La Hoya fight - he's a lot more stationary now and relies more on footwork.Comment
