not sure I agree
And tons of EE fighters sure don't esp the pressure fighters.
Many different styles in USA so I wouldn't say I agree wit him. Guys like Andrade, Plant, Crawford, Harrison, Hunter, Thurman, Porter, Haney, Shakur, etc... move their feet too.
Those crazy pivots combined with punches in bunches, pitty pat ones mixed with hard ones are the hallmark of the new Ukrainian generation though, pretty unique style of boxing. Seems very difficult to master it though so I don't think it will be widespread but there are fighters who catch up on it.
Eastern Euro/Central Asian fighters are usually good in and out movers, GGG in his prime abandoned that mostly but you could see earlier in his career and on the second Canelo fight too that he still utilizes that when he is forced to or feels like. Even a slugger like Beterbiev can be pretty fleet footed. What most of them need to learn in the US when they turn pro is inside fighting and more head movement/ducking (some of them have these skills already like Loma or Beterbiev, but most have to learn it) instead of always just zipping in and out at least that's what I'm seeing.

Andrade
Benavidez

Beterbiev
Not at all.....Difference between Floyd and the rest of these nikkas, Floyd was a pretty boy(didnt like to be touched in the face); but if you watch the tape 75% of that shyt was highly educated brawling, people see the savant that floyd the counter boxer is, the truth is he likes to mix it up more than he gets credit for, a true dog on the low....I saw Floyd as a boxer puncher who buzzed his opponents an forced them to fight a tactical fight.......Floyds only fight on the move was Castillo 2,m Oscar, Baldomir.........Floyd from Mosley on brawled in every damn fight on the low, and thats excluding them lower weights when he moved his hands even more......
In a dog fight when I look in Haneys face I dont believe he'd fight someone off him when met with equal resistance, he could barely get guys out with no resistance in front him.....these young guys have 1 level, ......Floyd Manny, Oscar, Shane, had levels for days.....

Rigondeaux (19-1, 13 KOs) will look to move down and capture a title in a second weight class while showing off the masterful technical skills that made him a unified 122-pound world champion and perennial member of the pound-for-pound list. A two-time Olympic gold medalist for his native Cuba, Rigondeaux made his name with victories over the likes of Nonito Donaire, Rico Ramos and Joseph Agbeko. Most recently, Rigondeaux scored an exciting eighth-round stoppage of former champion Julio Ceja in June on FOX.
Born in Venezuela and fighting out of Panama, Solis (30-5-1, 14 KOs) will make his U.S. debut on December 21 while riding a five-fight winning streak. Solis captured a super flyweight world title in 2013 amidst a 14-bout unbeaten run. He has lost by decision in his two previous attempts at 118-pound title, including a controversial loss to Jamie McDonnell, which he has bounced back from on his current win streak.
Nigeria's Ajagba (11-0, 9 KOs) most recently passed the toughest test of his professional career when he defeated fellow 2016 Olympian Ali Eren Demirezen by 10-round unanimous decision in July. The 25-year-old Ajagba gained widespread notoriety in August 2018 when his opponent, Curtis Harper, walked out of the ring after touching gloves to start the first round. Ajagba won the fight without throwing a punch as Harper was disqualified. Living in Stafford, Texas and training with Ronnie Shields, Ajagba has steadily increased his competition and added knockouts wins over Amir Mansour and Michael Wallisch this year.
The 33-year-old Kiladze (26-4-1, 18 KOs) broke a three-fight losing streak by fighting to a split draw in May against undefeated heavyweight Robert Alfonso. Kiladze's losses had come against top heavyweight Adam Kownacki, Michael Hunter and Joe Joyce, who own a combined 34-1 record. Originally from Georgia and now fighting out of Los Angeles, Kiladze won six straight fights between 2014 and 2018.
decent undercard i guess...but i have no idea what the fukk belt Rigo is fighting for...Monster is the WBA bantamweight champion
