            Usyk has the best footwork in the game today. The guy loves Ali.
            He even did an Ali Shuffle at the end of his fight with Gassiev.

                  If you’re light enough you can bounce “beautifully.” These are just traits of fighters having fun in the ring, toying with their opponents, not that it’s a physical inability. Ali stood out because his physique was perfect for HW, fluid, similar to Crawford at 147. Footwork is all preference. There are fighters whom like to blend a mix of offensive and defensive footwork. Some are more offensive while others are more defensive. These are preference, so the context is that you like Ali’s showboating and athletic ease rather than focusing on fluid fighters WANTING TO mimic that.

                  If Roy vs Toney, both given a bonus to mimic Ali footwork, the fight would’ve probably been funny because it’s NOT their preference nor makes any sense. All elite level fighters have appealing footwork

                    Focus on what your body likes. You can act like Ali all you want, but you can get sparked by a guy who is just basic and a slugger. If that happens, you’ll rethink about Ali’s style.
