It's hilarious how so many people mistake the art of not getting hit as running. Just because somebody doesn't allow themselves to be a punching bag doesn't mean they run. Anybody who thinks fighters like Pep, Whitaker, and Mayweather were/are runners is mistaken. Slipping punches, proper head movement, understanding range, and ring general ship are true SKILLS of the sweet science. Furthermore, posters praise a guy like Margarito who stands there and takes punishment. Now look at what Marg is going through with his eye. There is nothing cool about taking unnecessary punishment. If you have great defensive skills you would be ****** not to use them.
!!! Movement and elusiveness=Running LMAO!!!

Very true, I don't consider greats like Pep & Sweat Pea runners, but the fact that Mosley wasn't throwing means that his only intentions were to get out of the way of big shots all night long; that is running.
I will say this though, Pac was in range to unload at times throughout the fight, he didn't.Comment

Your concept would be great if Mosley actually threw punches.....
You can slip, move all you want but you need to throw and land punches back if not, then it's just running.
Kind of easy concept to understand.Comment
