Wouldn't say that Locche used a Mayweather type defense, he seemed to have 3 different stances which he changed through at random intervals and obviously depending on the situation, the shoulder roll was one of them though.
Yeah :/, find it funny when the hardcore Floyd fans say that they invented it.

Even Robinson wasn't slick in my opinion...
This word "slick" is kinda like a myth,I prefer terms like skilled,fast,mobile fighters...elusive...

No style has ever ruled boxing and no one style will ever rule boxing.
I will say this though fighters like Duran and Chavez had more skills and defense with the come forward pressure style than fighters like Margarito and Angulo.

When people say "slick" they tend to mean athletic, and more often than not, black fighters are the most athletic boxers.
