Life & Death Haikus: Real Dogs Fight (Original Poem)

True boxing masters
Reposition in pocket
Not run all twelve rounds...

Roy Jones Jr., arguably the best to ever do it in my opinion. An all around great boxing legend, definitely not my idol, however I do respect and acknowledge the great feats he has accomplished in his career. There are many great fighters in this new era and generation, however, we are hard pressed to find another fighter of this caliber. The next two fighters which I have on my radar are both Errol Spence Jr. and Vasyl Lomachenko. They are high output fighters who know how to come forward. Lomachenko is more effective with lateral movement and swift feet with blistering combinations and Errol Spence Jr. can cut off the ring exquisitely and keep coming forward to keep distance control as he jabs and stabs your body, depleting you over the rounds for a great knock out. I do not enjoy when fighters back up the entire time, and do not counter or throw effective offensive jabs to keep the aggressor at bay. It's time to elevate the competition and keep up the convincing wins in all weight divisions.
