No professional boxer, that I know of currently practicing, uses his legs as much during a bout as Yuri Foreman, the junior middleweight from Park Slope, Brooklyn. When his right knee betrayed him fully during his June 5, 2010 Yankee Stadium title defense against Miguel Cotto, the boxer was left with a diminished arsenal which sapped his effectiveness and much of his desire to compete. But Foreman, now 32, had surgery and took time to heal. He now has his legs under him.
