Willie Pep is considered by many to be one of the top 5 defensive fighters of all times, the moves that this guy did in the 40s and 50s were unprecedented in the history of the sport. The man had over 220 fights and he was still pretty after his career was over with his faculties intact well into his 70s, evidence on how defenisvely sound he was. But unfortunatley I feel like he's not appreciated like he should be so that's why I wanted to make a seperate thread about him.
So, what's your favorite 3 second clip of Willie Pep? I'll post some of my own personal favorites here, I made this thread hoping that I can remind everyone here what that sport is really about away from all the politics and the race issues and I hope this thread stays like that.
Switch hitting going backwards!
Check right hook!
