The Shoulder-Roll Defense

Hit-and-don't-get-hit, perfected. He makes world champions look like amateurs swinging at air.

The Philly shell: lead shoulder high, rear hand guarding the chin, lead arm across the body. You deflect, roll and catch shots, read everything, and counter with surgical timing. The art of winning without taking damage.

I don't take chances. I take what's there and I'm patient.
