      slick AA are really rare. some people just wanna make it out like being slick is something very common among AA fighters but that's far from the truth. only a few are gifted with being slick and it's not exclusive to AAs.

        I still think Alexander has a lot of improving to do. Bradley had exactly the wrong style to confound him because he's got pretty quick feet, he's determined and he likes to fight ugly in the clinch, where Alexander has no game. When they were at range, Alexander was still getting the better of it. He's no Floyd, but I don't think all hope is lost.

            There's nothing slick about Hopkins man. He holds and fouls for 12 rounds.

            Mayweather is slick, but he's a fucking tinman with a vagina.

            What else you got?

              Anselmo Moreno might not American but he's the closest thing to a Pernell Whitaker that we have. He's not nearly as good as Whitaker but the closest thing.

                  At the end of the day, people want exciting fights,

                  Trainers are nto training people to be slick, if they had it, then they continue to have it, but Prize boxing and especially the amatuers means people need to be fast and aggressive. To score points or at the top level to sell.
