Floyd actually learned that from Bramble.
Bramble was a Kung Fu practioner back in the day and has a huge picture of himself in a white kung fu uniform practicing in central park. Bramble used to piss me off doing his snaky punch shit when we would spar he would wave his jab hand in front of my face with his elbow bent into something that looked snake head then all of a sudden throw a hard jab with it a very short punch but it hrt like hell.
Another guy with kung fu roots is stevie johnson he doesnt really use it boxing to much but his footwork from what he told me was made better by his kung fu days.

lol I used to do the same shit when sparring. Gung Fu is still one of my all-time favorite Arts. And when a guy learns the instincts of a Boxer as to when to throw a punch it helps make decitions on how to use other strikes as well.
Hey and what about August's Drunken Boxing? He was tearing Olivera up with it, and Courtney Burton. lol That double-punch he landed on Olivera was the shit. I'd like to see Zab "Fitty-deuce block" Judah versus "Drunk Masta" Augusts in a Gung Fu skillz only fight.
