      Khan does not have good movement, his face absorbed too many punches from a feather fisted Malignaggi. Most recently I would say prime Ricky Hatton and Manny Pacquiao. I would also put Ward in there, he ducks a lot and makes you miss with his head movement.

            He gets hit too much for having good head movement. I mean he looks pretty stationary to me with his head. His footwork is pretty good though, let's not confuse getting out of the way of punches due to your footwork, with avoiding punches with head movement. Two completely different things.

                James Toney and Mike Tyson was like the last Boxers to really utilize the head movement, not many guys today use Boxing fundamentals, many of them are just looking for a quick KO

                of course Mayweather still uses it, Timothy Bradley has AMAZING head movement just go watch his fight with Lamont Peterson and see how many times he was able to slip Lamont punches, Sergio Martinez is another guy with amazing head movement just ASK Kelly Pavlik and Paul Williams lol also Andre Ward has pretty good movement as does Andre Dirrell, Dirrell was able to make Froch and Abraham miss constantly but sometimes he gets sloppy, it is a few other fighters I can't think of at this time, Lucian Bute is pretty slick
