Because of the mma most officials are tolerant of dirty boxing among my favourite street fighters are Ricky Hatton and Roberto Duran.
Hatton likes to grab the right elbow or the torso and feed right uppercuts favourite move of mine. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EtAlLgEvVD4
Roberto Duran uses his forearms to create space another favourite of mine.

I don’t know if I believe in skill or how to apply it, if skill is balance than foot work can offset it. what I do believe in power and durability. Care to define skill?
Perfect the coordination, of the CNS.
How does footwork offset balance? How can you have good footwork without good balance?

Grey someone quick on his feet isn’t going to let you stay standing for very long. He’s gonna have you moving around.
If you have good balance moving is not a problem
Yes! Grey I agree, the difference is if the opponent runs in behind the right hand that should offset balance.
Glen Johnson the man who ran in behind the right hand. Evander Holyfield used this as well to offset a well balanced Mike Tyson https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=G_fM3OIbua4

When you talk about MMA, your not talking about traditional boxing. I was seeing MMA type fighting in bars and alley ways back in the 50’s. For the most part, the rules of MMA are that there really are no rules. It’s great fighting in the real world and on the battlefield, it’s now a big money maker and the biggest show in town. That being said, I do recognize that an MMA fighter has to be in better shape, take more dangerous blows, and needs to master fighting elements from all martial arts.
traditional boxing requires an understanding of tactical boxing, master being a tactical boxer and you will become a dangerous fighter. I notice spectators do not understand a tactical fighter and wrongfully boo him for seemingly being to cautious, slow, or backing away and circling to much. Like a chess match, any wrong move or not having a variety of plans to change up, will cost a fighter.
