    The Philly Shell is used by many of the most exciting fighters to watch. It allows many attacking options because it relies almost entirely on the right hand for head defence. Allowing the left free reign to attack.

    inside fighters like Roberto Duran and James Toney (Charles Williams,Samuel Peter fights)

    I enjoy almost all, even Mayweather when he is not on his toes pot shotting, I love his shoulder roll, but I can't stand slick runners ala Spinks or Euro Shell ala Winky.

    I appreciate skill. So slick, fast, counterpunchers. That's probably how i would fight because i wouldn't want to put myself in harms way for nothing. Hit and not get hit.

    Counter punchers mainly: Juan Manuel Marquez, Money May, James Toney, The Executioner Hopkins, and Pernell Whitaker.

    Also like seeing some fleet footed boxers: like Sugar Ray Robinson & Sugar Ray Leonard, Muhammad Ali, and Larry Holmes.


    Dat slickness!

    I like the Nacho Beristein counter punching style, see Ricardo Lopez, JMM, RM.

    Perfect balance, excellent footwork, sublime combinations, good head movement, excellent control of pace and tempo, and always with perfect conditioning.

    I voted "other" because I like a good "stalker." In my opinion a "stalker" is basically a hyper-agressive boxer/puncher.

    Here's the best "stalker" I've seen over the last several years.
