        Tyson probably used it best. More in the '80s than the '90s.

        Of this generation, I think Wright used it most effectively.

                Depends on your definition of peek-a-boo. I've often seen the term equated with the by-the-book orthodox tight, high guard (like Cotto and the majority of modern fighters use), not just the D'Amato version.

                  Peek a boo refers to the hands high, bobbing up and down while moving forward style used by guys like Tyson

                  The style of defence Winky uses has a similar hand position, but less headmovement and forward movement. Winky kind of sits back behind his guard.
