Also in the Chop Chop Corely fight Floyd kept his chin high... Hence why he got tagged a bunch of times.

lol, he literally does this all the time, luckily he's fast as sht

and when he's chasing someone he also always "reaches"

the guy is a product of great matchmaking, never faced a great pressure fighter, never faced a great mover, never faced a great fighter actually, how fortunate

He doesn't do that anymore, he has been far less aggressive for some 7 or 8 years now. He tucks himself up very well and his shoulder is in perfect position

you got the blueprint man.

You can't keep your chin up in the air and adopt a shoulder roll- the chin is protected by the shoulder

Wrong!

When FMJ throws that touch lead right hand he sticks his chin out. You of all people should have discerned this, being that you're a big Bernard Hopkins fan. Look at how James Toney, Bernard Hopkins, Mauricio Herrera, and Marcos Maidana throw the straight right hand. Chin down. Perfect technique.

he still does it on occasion, but now its only when he is in full defensive mode moving away after throwing his own shots. he doesnt exchange with his chin high any more which is what is most dangerous.

i personally think he opens himself up at times as he moves away to get his opponents to look for the home run making their punches easier to avoid and counter.
