I had no idea this is your website. Its pretty good. I actually posted some links from your website to give some examples of points I was trying to get across on another website.

Awesome work mate!

It would be a very sad day if Cus De Amato + Mike Tysons unique skill set and super exciting style was lost in time.

It would be awesome to keep it alive, hell you could become really famous just for doing that very thing, I mean who doesnt want to learn how to box like Tyson?

Do you think Tysons style is exclusive to short folk? (Or short compared to their competition?)

Kinda makes me wish I was short. Never thought id say that.

your website is great, full of pugilistic resources, be it fundamental techniques to conditioning.

The peek -a-boo articles are very unique, don't think i ever read any other articles on it

.

From what I learned about D'amato, he trained everybody peekaboo in his gym regardless the body type or other parameters. For instance, one of his prospects, Baster Mathis was quite tall (191 cm, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buster_Mathis). From the looks, his body when in shape was like that of Lennox Luis or Larry Holms.

I need to watch the fights to see weather peekaboo is good for tall guys (taller than their opponents).

Tyson was something special. Personally, unlike Barry Robinson, I do not believe you can "drill" talent. Apparently, Cus saw something in Mike. It is tempting to say that his height was the most proper for peekaboo, but I cannot really back it up at the moment

Great articles, I love the use of the moving images to illustrate your points.

For the defense section, on the roll, it might help you explain it better if you mention that it's like bobbing in a U motion instead of straight up and down. To make oneself less stationary. Just a suggestion as you are doing an awesome job so far.

the peekaboo style of avoiding jabs nd straights sets you up perfectly for a power left hook nd also put you in better view of the next punch in the combo.. ala mike tyson.. nice stuff! gna check out your site now

Valid point and observations! I will incorporate them into the next article.
Please, tell you anything you have in your mind about the peekaboo, not what you read or heard, but what you observed. It will be appreciated.
