      No he doesn't, and that spaz thingy your talking about is called footwork. Leonard and Maldrick Taylor would do the same exact thing. Please watch the highlight from start till 3:16

        he just spazzes and carries no kinetic energy, an arm puncher
        spazzes lol? its called shoe shine combinations, a quick string of punches meant to score points and force your opponent to cover up but not cause significant damage.

        just bcuz he doesnt always sit down on his punches doesnt mean he cant sit down on his punches when he wants to. good fighters dont throw with full force everytime they punch. leonard and ali were known for throwing shoe shine combinations too, did they have god awful technique as well?

        his punches are very good, always nice and short and he pivots just enough to get a little bit of snap even on his shoeshine combos. when he does sit down on his punches he turns into them well. no apparent flaw in his technique other than the aforementioned chicken wing, tendency to slightly backhand the jab and sometimes slap a little with his right when he loops it over the top.

        all in all his technique is still solid though, calling it god awful is ridiculous.

          I honestly don't think he's seen this before. It seems all new to him. I could be wrong but I thought shoe shinning was ripping weak combinations in close, solely to rack up points with the judges. Leonard, Meldrick Taylor and as we saw in the highlight Sr. they did this little kicking motion, somewhat of a shuffle, which allows them to rip faster combinations, I think TheHolyCross is speaking on that, that might be new to him. That or I don't know what he's talking about, saying Sr's punching technique is godawful though, insane.

            why do you noobs think im going on about the "shoe shine" combo?

            you can see his god awful technique in his straigth right, he's ass and legs do a spazz, he's too tight and he pulls his punch way too early aswell as not turning his core enough(trying to be faster than really is), back too straight on uppercuts that's god awful punch technique if i've ever seen



            honestly all of his punches suck except for maybe the left to the body

              Again watch the highlight, it's obviously new to you. Can't hold that against you as you don't see fighters doing that today.
