PURE GOLD!! To many people study Mike which u should but Torres and Patterson is where you should start your research than move on too Mike. Excellent clip as always
Dempsey was the actual creator
Cus helped develop
I hope
I'm accurate
@@talinalelea8006 cus trained him and tyson
Love Tyson, Cus, Floyd, and Tores. Sick beat as well ❤
One of Cus' gems. Great fighter! I am not sure where to rank him of all time regarding the Light Heavyweights though, since it's so stacked historically.
+Scott C Yea it is difficult to place him because he fought a large portion of his career at Middleweight and then lost the Light-Heavy title to a natural Middleweight. Still a good fighter though and I always enjoy watching the Peek-a-boo style.
A lot of people overlooks Jose Torres’ capabilities; His movement and footwork were sleek, the way he easily switched in and out of peekaboo stance was second nature, the seemingly unreal reach and speed of his elegant gazelle punches, his lethal left. He was way ahead most of the boxers of his time and weight. Would love to see more footage. Thank you very much for sharing.
Soo underrated
Damn! The dude was vicious with that body attack.
Amazing how Cus D Amato developed his fighters. I mean, you can always tell who was a D Amato fighter. D Amato Boxing style.
Brilliant ! I hit the heavy bag every morning. Your videos give me a style to emulate. Gonna need a double end bag for this one.
Original Tight Defense huge Torres fan.
Dick Tiger is an All-Time Great top 8 middleweight, the fact that he fought at Lightheavyweight weighing essentially as a Super Middleweight makes him a higher ranked p4P than most middleweights. He was 37-38 when he won the lightheavyweight crown from this elite boxer jose Torres
didn't tiger lose the MW belt to a welter/154er?
@@cheetoyeeto1232 I think you're talking about Emile Griffith.
@@antoniomosley9410 Yes but he was completely weight drained when he fought and lost a very controversial decision to Emile Griffith. Mind you Emile Griffith didn't even use his classical clinching abilities against Tiger since Tiger is the most strongest middleweight of all time.
@@thewisetzar5363 Didn't know about the weight draining part. But I did watch the fights.
@@antoniomosley9410 Nat Fleischer blasted MSG for corruption too.
That peekaboo style is iconic
Man, this guy puts such gooood music with these videos
He was real fast for a light heavy weigh champion.
He could throw a 6 punch combination in 2/3rds of a second. He was very fast. The Willie Bag was specifically designed for his bout against Willie P.
Damn this is AWSOME,one can see the style of D’amato in Torres witch is same of Tyson. Genius making champions
Thanks. This is a great tribute. I really enjoy the peek a boo style. Between the three champs which one was your favorite, Tyson, Patterson, or Torres?
My personal favorite is Patterson. He had fast hands and was able to adjust his style over the years and despite his age disadvantage on the back end of his career, pulled off some spectacular performances.
+Shadowsnake 89 Yep Patterson is my favorite out of the 3 as well!
my favorite is mugiwara no luffy lol
Torres was my favorite. To me each fighter was better than the next.
For me Mike Tyson was the best Peekaboo user. 😁
Yea mee to,unlike other boxer of Cuz D'amatos team, Patterson was the International Olympic championship of the wolrd
And yet Cus D’amato has done it again
The Iron before Tyson. This dude had the dynamite.
Jose Torres is perfect not to fast not to strong but a polished fighter he so smooth
Sublime el trabajo de Cus D'amato en sus pupilos. Bravo.
0:23 HOLY FUCK WHAT A LONG ARM!!! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE
lmao!!! had to go back to see it...his arm is mile long!!!
PUERTO RICAN BABY
He’s my best friends first uncle! His sister Emelina is my bf’s mom whom I call my second mom! I didn’t know how good he was until watching this clip. His style of fighting is similar to my son’s who is also a light heavyweight fighter...a pressure fighter and hard hitter! My son is 18 and is Houston’s area golden glove champion 2020! Wish we had met him before he passed. My son and him would of had lots to talk about.
Really? He's one of my best friends grandfathers I met him a few times before he passed away Rip Jose
@@bossace2294....that’s awesome.
Kaeo Gordon yes very nice person
Is your son still boxing?, what gym does he train at?
You that goat of highlights you should add the era/dates of when the fighter fought tho
Absolutely brilliant video 😎
This is an area where they seem to take their fitness more seriously
I would like to put them against some of today's fighters 🤔
Sensational Boxing 💥💯💞🥊
Wow!!!!!!
REAL BOXING.
I can't understand why peek a boo style is not the main boxing style...
I think one of the greatest things about boxing, is all the different fighting styles of different boxers. At the end of the day, boxing is basically "punch, and don't get punched", but there is so much variety in how it's done. Every style has it's pros and cons, and one style that works for someone, might not work for someone else. That's why style clashes are so interesting. The classic "boxer vs brawler" or the "outside fighter vs inside fighter".
What's this song? Also great highlight. One of my top 10 favourite highlights you've made.

Thanks!

Hey haNZA, who do you think would have won between Torres and Floyd Patterson at light heavy?
Patterson. He was the better overall fighter in my opinion and should have been undefeated at Light-Heavyweight (most people think he was robbed against Joey Maxim.)
Torres actually knocked out Patterson in Sparring and it was said that Patterson wasn't the same after. Cus says in an article that the press made a big thing out of it and you can tell it effective Patterson. Cus also said of the 3 mentally Patterson was tye weakest.. Love your channel bro im a huge Tight Defense fan.
Definitely Torres. Nobody had faster hands than Torres. Not even Ali. Torres unleashed 6 punches in 4 tenths of a second. Even Ali called Torres The Greatest.
@@dannanrik not true it was a knockdown and one of Pattersons cornermen wanted Torres to go again which seemed to me that Patterson wanted his revenge
He hates with bad intentions thank you cus D'Amato
Cuz D amato was the boxing father
No he wasn't. Boxing was there before him and is still around after him.
I know Mike Tyson studied this guy inside and out
peekabo boxing style video?
I read somewhere that cus tried to get Ali to fight him and Ali refused. Saying peel a book was all wrong for boxing. Or something along those lines. Not sure if it’s 100% true. Still interesting.
Song?
Predecessor of tyson's boxing style
That demato shift
Any plans for a top 10 defensive boxers video?
+Decon Sturm Sounds like a good idea but it'll be difficult to narrow it down to just 10, I'll have to think about my list.
+haNZAgod hey i was also looking you don't have an archie moore highlight :/ i couldn't find one
+haNZAgod Ey watched the De Jesus highlights. Darn good boxer. Can you do a vid on Alfredo Escalera too? He's pretty underrated because of those losses to Arguello.
Joe Kelly I do have an Archie Moore highlight: th-cam.com/video/vP9z_ri5yAE/w-d-xo.html
Ethan Tran Hmm possibly, not going to lie it doesn't really get me motivated to make a highlight of Escalera but I'll see what I can come up with later.
Just learnt he's another student of the Great Constantine
I get 🙋♀️ like Superman
¿Cómo se llamar la música de fondo?
Here from John Danaher and Rogan
Ali used him in his camp for every Frazier fight because of their style
He looks exactly like Tyson in some clips.. 🤣
It just seems fighters had better chins back then
Smelling salts to revive them between rounds
He peek-a-booed but he ain’t peek-a-boo like tyson.
Из всех воспитанников д'Амато Хосе больше всех напоминает Тайсона
DEVASTATOR!
is it just me or do some of these punches look set-up? Like a choreograph. Surely nothing nefarious could have gone on in the sport of boxing during that time period right? I'm just imagining it?
You're just imagining it. Nothing wrong with these punches at all.
✅🦾💯
just like tyson
No Tyson was just like him.
No Tyson was Tyson
@@josephwaters-shelford1752 yup
