Fighters who improved their footwork during career

Post by Cent0089 »

We saw boxers who improved their power, defense, or became more tough as they got older. But can you name some examples when fighter really improved their footwork?

joe parker used to be stiff legged, he got a lot better in the last stage of his career. he wasnt aways that good a boxer. he also started feinting more and in generally adding more complexity to his game.

Manny Pacquiao

He was always fast, but when he was younger before training with Freddie Roach he had much more of a straight in and out style and a more predictable attack. Varying up his punches, foot movement and punching from different angles are all things he improved upon as he grew both in Physical size and ability.
