    Recently I've been watching some of the videos that first got me interested in making my channel and one of my all time favorites is Reznick's Top 20 Heavyweight list. Floyd Patterson was listed at #20 and I loved the editing that matched with the track so I wanted to make a little tribute to that. Patterson was an exceptional combination puncher with devastating power, his knockout of Ingemar Johansson is still one of the very best I've ever seen.

      I instantly recognized what you were doing here. I watch that video a lot and especially the segment of Lennox Lewis/George Foreman/Rocky Marciano. The background music fits those guys so well. That video got me hooked on boxing and 'God Is An Astronaut'. I don't know if that's a style of music you like, but I feel it could fit perfectly in a boxing highlight video, especially of the more serious/gritty type boxers. Love your work my guy.

    Floyd Patterson combinations were dynamic. Head, body, body head uppercuts, straights and so on. Basically can throw any punch at any angle while making it nearly impossible to counter properly. The track selection is A+ as always. Keep up the great work.

      Yeah he threw his punches with a very visible snap, which helped them land with maximum force.

      It's really a shame that his two fights against Ali was him far far past his best shape.
      First fight he came in with a lame back and you can really tell that Ali was letting him linger there to make him suffer (due to Patterson referring to him as Clay instead of Ali)
      Second fight Patterson was 37 and actually did much better with throw much more combinations and better movement to get the inside. Hell I would say he was eking out on the points before a nasty cut developed and Ali only picked up the pace to open up that cut to the point where they had to stop the fight.

      Similar thing happened when Ali won the title over Liston and Rocky, thinking he might of been able to overwhelm a young ali) was offered several millions to fight Ali but of course nothing came of it due to Rocky not able to get back into fighting shaping from his bad back and lack of hunger (something he was suffering from since he was 26)

    My boyhood hero from the 1950's when he beat Archie Moore for the Heavyweight Title, until his last fight with Ali in 1972. He conducted himself the way a "true"Champion should. Quiet, reserved, and always a gentleman the key ingredients of a great man, who happened to be the Heavyweight Champion, not once, but twice! Floyd's hand-speed, his ability to throw punches in bunches lightening fast was unmatched by any of the Heavyweight Champs down through boxing history. The Cus D'Amato taught peek-a-boo fighting style that Floyd used took him and other D'Amato managed fighters to the championship of their respective weight class. The Peek-a-boo was used by Jose Torres to gain the Light Heavyweight Championship, and Mike Tyson, with his punching power, was a force not of this earth. The Peek-a-Boo was taken to new heights by Mike Tyson. When the original Mike Tyson crew was overseeing Mike, he listened to their advice and instruction, and power-punched his way to the World's Championship. Coming out of the peek-a-boo with his devastating left-hook, or right hand, it was "light's out" for his opponent. When D'Amato died, it wasn't long before Mike fired the "great group" of trainers, cornermen, and manager that was so instrumental in Tyson's early career being successful. After firing his closest friends and advisors, the ones not out to bleed Mike of his earnings as the Heavyweight Champ, a second-rate fighter, one that would not even been a good sparring partner for Tyson in the early times, none other tha a 50 to one favorite to win against Buster Douglas, Tyson loses by a knockout. Tyson was "never" the same, as his personal life was a train wreck. Who knows what greatness Tyson would have achieved if he had "half" of Floyd Patterson's character qualities. Floyd's hand speed was unmatched, even by Ali, and faster than Tyson.

    Idc what no one says.. old fighters were the best of the best.. (despite Floyd Mayweather) the people were 10x tougher back then and the athletes wer Never lazy.. 2:43 You can't tell me this isn't good enough to compete w today's champions.. it's just the camera quality and angles can't really capture it fully.. so it's hard to think these guys from the 40s can beat a dude like Lomachenko or terrance crawford... but I'm telling yall, if u kno anything about fighting.. it has alot to do w boxing, and the old fighters were definitely the toughest💯 no doubt.. but Floyd is fs the best atm in anytime.. past, present, future.. its gonna be a long time till we see another fighter as good as Floyd.. cause the dude literally been training since a baby..
