Bennie Briscoe - Bob & Weave Defense Highlight

[@patrickbrowne4606]

He was a hard man..he hit hard and could take whatever you could dish out. One of the greatest contenders in history.

[@hanzagod]

One of the best boxers to never win a world title (in my opinion.) Even though he was known for his toughness and relentless style, Briscoe was adept at slipping punches... If only he could have countered more after the slips he'd have been an even greater fighter.

[@figotlatenby588]

Ive seen a couple articles comparing him to mark hunt, but i was too lazy to watch all his footage, so thanks again hanza, finally a aggresive low guard philly shell.

[@metalshadowthehedgehog3006]

Hoora it came. Thanks hanza

[@stevenconner3082]

Also trained by two legends, George Benton and the legendary, Yank Duhram..

[@davidfitzgerald4683]

[@fearnobodyandtrustnoone]

It's beautiful to watch, a master of the art of Boxing! R.I.P Bennie Briscoe

[@vincentlanci5125]

Fwiw- I sparred with him a couple times st regular fellows under George James. He wasn’t allowed to punch back.. sometimes he’d forget. Trained in same gym for 3 years. Gentle man and role model in and out of the ring for me

[@alextorres1726]

"sometimes he'd forgot" did he hit back?

[@marknorris1381]

He was unlucky not to have been a world champion. These days with the four major belts on offer I couldn't imagine him not winning one.

[@ToughdataTiktok]

No way, George's son Vernon was my boxing coach. Had a lot of stories about briscoe and jeff chandler

[@dombrunelli5082]

This defensive movement, bobbing and weaving, etc.. was a Philly special back in the day. Back then, some news guy said if you saw two Philly drunks fighting in an alley behind the bar, they were bobbing and weaving.

[@goyonman9655]

Frazier and Briscoe

[@raz_nick4048]

Dont forget dwight muhammad qawi, he was a beast with that head movement

[@dombrunelli5082]

@@raz_nick4048 Yeah, I saw Qawi ( then Braxton) fight Michael Spinks in AC, and watched him train at Joe Frazier's gym a couple times in North Philly..He was a tough guy, and used the Frazier bob and weave.

[@maxsundram8447]

He actually did some work with Frazier in Philly

[@entertainmeant6520]

😭😭😭😭

[@getsmart3701]

Tough, skilled and tough again, Briscoe was a MW nightmare in his day. That said he was never busy enough against the best of his era. A joy to watch him slip and slide around the incoming in this video. Great work as always mate.

[@bmarsh333]

legend from the tough mean 70's Philly circuit!!

[@bfgtech48]

I remember Brisco and Hagler being called "Battle of the Baldies".

[@jricciardi99]

You are correct & Hagler was the boxer in that fight

[@jamesrichardson4965]

Oh sh*t !. I almost forgot about him. Eventhough his record didn't show it. He was one of the few fighters that when he fought,, you got your money's worth. One such fight was with Marvin Hagler. Dubbed: " Battle of da Baldies". It's recognizable he utilizes the " Philly Shell". Same as Joe Frazier .

[@crazykocounters4741]

I think you meant a cross arm guard..

[@miguelyarturo]

​@@crazykocounters4741this is the real philly shell, the shoulder roll/crab stuff mayweather does only got referred like that because of the fight night games. The crab was used by Jim Jeffries too, shoulder roll aint really a particular style but it was used a lot by fighters in the pre 50s

[@keithdano]

That's the Philly style, you learn that from the gym wars

[@Motorfirez]

He had Monzon literally out on his feet , which is saying something .

[@combatesdeboxeo]

It is an absolute nonsense

[@thatbronzeboij]

@@combatesdeboxeo that’s not nonsense 😅; I literally watched the fight. Monzon was indeed troubled.

[@uatitofa2482]

quality and quantity as usual thanks for all the work you put in HANZAGOD all day !!!

[@Matt-uv8rz]

Baaaaaaaad Bennie Briscoe. A great contender. Tough as nails, and could box and punch. In another era he might have well been the champ, or at least a title holder.

[@dontesanders1434]

He style looks just like Joe Frazier's. He fought great fighters like Carlos Monzon and Marvin Hagler in their prime, great video.

[@goyonman9655]

Philly fighters

[@edwardmurdoch5070]

And stood his ground against those two monsters of boxing. Enough said!

[@DerricktheWhite]

Fought Monzon to a draw.

[@edwardmurdoch5070]

​@@DerricktheWhite Not really. He had a great fight against Monzon; he held in there, but lost on unanimous decision.

[@hallvardvalde3882]

@@edwardmurdoch5070 Mechanical is talking about Bennie's first fight against Monzon, the one that happened in Argetina which was declared a draw. A lot of people assume that Briscoe won that fight, since generally when a hometown fighter is given a draw it points toward hometown cooking in the judging department.

[@corneliusorlian8433]

[@DANVIIL]

One of Philly's greatest!

[@thewisetzar5363]

Without Monzon and Valdez, he would've ruled the division in the 70's. Perhaps the ageing Griffith who gave Prime Monzon his most toughest fight would have threaten Briscoe chance of achieving the undisputed crown. Problem with Briscoe is he doesn't throw punches enough after evading shots

[@shonuff86]

I've never heard of this guy I like learning new things

[@bigbrotherinlife1654]

[@DavidArce-qh8of]

Beautiful head movement, this dude was bad ass.

[@IanniGamers]

And to think that this guy almost got rid of monson.

Great head movement and defense. Was a top contender for years, but, for whatever reason never won a title. Still among the best mw's ever. Had 53 ko's in 66 wins. A bad dude.

Baaaad briscoe one of my favs shame he dont get his reconginition that he deserves

[@JEM-fo6rs]

Great video. He reminds me of a Joe Frazier or heavyweight james toney? Bending at the hip is exhausting and very unorthodox not to mention dangerous when facing a boxer who throws accurate uppercuts. Nevertheless some guys make it work nicely.

[@skipeveryday7282]

J.E M its not exhausting what you on about?

[@ШаляпинАнатолий]

Well it’s philly style 101, Joe just was uncharacteristically aggressive

[@blackhoodie4170]

thats why he uses the cross guard to block uppercuts and punches alike.

No there were fighters before Briscoe's time that effectively bobbed and weaved, even someone like Jack Dempsey was good at it. Frazier was always an aggressive swarming fighter.

[@marknorris1381]

Briscoe may well have been the only fighter who ever made Hagler back up. If that's true that's saying something.

Briscoe was like a smaller version of Joe Frazier, but without the emphasis on the left hook.
