Your Favorite Style of Boxing

Hardcase.

 

Well, before Jpab got banned, his answer would've been the kind of pure-boxer/counter-puncher type. The type of fighters in recent years like Ivan Calderon and Cristian Mijares, fighters who display a type of technical brilliance in the ring, and make up for the fact that they may be lacking in power with the ability to outsmart, out-think and outskill their opponent.

The type of fighters who have boring fights because they're that good there isn't any need to step up a gear. Fighters who aren't intentionally boring, their fights just transpire that way because of their superior capabilities. As opposed to fighters who are unentertaining because it's neccessary for them to get by. Great defensive skills do it for me, the kind of fighters who have a great variety to their defence, who can slip, evade, roll and block punches with equal class and ease.

In summary, Jpab's a boring ****er.

 

Im a big boxing fan and love all effective styles, but everyone loves a tear up more than anything right?

 

I love the mid range boxer-puncher type. Fighters like Felix Trinidad, Marvin Hagler, Alexis Arguello and Freddie Pendleton. For me, the boxer-puncher is the perfect blend of excitement and skill. It mixes an aggresive style with solid fundamentals, and almost always produces interesting and exciting fights. You can appreciate the skill of the fighter whilst at the same time marvelling at their power and finishing ability. It's the perfect concoction of skill oreinted vivacity, and never fails to intrigue or excite. You can't lose with the boxer-puncher.

 

Always liked early hatton and the relentless pressure and body shots he thew in
Cottos style tho he has changed to more of steady boxer type - hes till good to watch
Toneys counter punching was always great to watch
JMM is probably my fav styleistically

 

Glad he's gone! Was a terrible poster

 

The Ingle style, I'm ashamed to say.

That or Paulie's style, I ****ing love that.

Outside of that, Thomas Hearns or Miguel Cotto.

 

He'll be back on the 7th, posting the same bull**** as ever.

WAR PONCE!

 

Sweet Pea.

 

Modern day fighters I would say Khan is almost guaranteed excitement for me. I always want him to win, he throws lots of fast combinations and he can't take a shot the best which basically means I'm constantly on the edge of my seat watching him.

 

The Ingle style.

 

I love watching Floyd box. It's hardly rocket science to come up with that as he's one of the best boxers of his generation but I'd watch Floyd over Manny all day. Sure, we do all like a tear up but I love to watch a defensive master at work. Hatton had his style but for me I can't stand the come forward brawler, it appears to lack finesse and skill whereas Floyd's shoulder rolls and evasive skills are something to behold.

All the more reason he infuriates me by not fighting more often. The ****.

 

<<<<<<<<<< that man. A come forward aggressive and elusive fighter with monster power and a solid chin (bar the Hearns fight).
