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

[christophermoltisanti]

Love Tyson, Cus, Floyd, and Tores. Sick beat as well ❤

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.

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.

[christopherduffy]

Damn! The dude was vicious with that body attack.

[seetsamolapo]

Man, this guy puts such gooood music with these videos

[fortitudinemethonorem]

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.

[armandorodriguez]

Damn this is AWSOME, one can see the style of D’amato in Torres witch is same of Tyson. Genius making champions

[hermes]

Jose Torres is perfect not to fast not to strong but a polished fighter he so smooth

[mikemike]

He was real fast for a light heavy weigh champion.

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.

[winniepeg]

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 🤔

[FA-fccj]

You that goat of highlights you should add the era/dates of when the fighter fought tho

0:23 HOLY FUCK WHAT A LONG ARM!!! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE

[futhanabuddah]

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.

[Rage_Rogers]

REAL BOXING.

I can't understand why peek a boo style is not the main boxing style...

[FreckleBAM]

What's this song? Also great highlight. One of my top 10 favourite highlights you've made.
