    When was the last time we had a fight like FMJ-Ortiz?

    I mean, when was the last time a good/great defensive fighter fought a dynamic, strong fighter?

    It's very unusual for a couple of reasons:

    1) There are very few great defensive fighters around

    2) Most of the top fighters, like Mimi, will only fight old or shot guys.

            No, I mean really famous names. Like Bradley and Holt, that kind. Maidana and Khan. I guess I answered my own question now.

              Yeah but Khan is an awful defensive fighter with even worse footwork. It's a good style matchup and name wise this is the best fight boxing has had since Pacquaio/Cotto.
