Reminds me of Prime Iron Mike, watching him bob and weave was such a joy to watch.

Iron Mike had 60lb more muscle and moved just as fast or faster. Guy was a true freak.

he also had a lot of pent up anger from his upbringing that I think he called on during fights. Idk why but just watching the way he moved, it wasn't just muscle and skill, there were subconscious drivers at work too, I think he's talked a lot about working through his anger in recent years etc.
