    I will start off by naming a fighter, the next response should be someone who you feel is a stylistic nightmare for that fighter, the following response then a bad style match up for the last fighter named and so on (yes I'm at work and very bored!). Will be interesting to see the range of names from different eras which appear. I'll start it:

    Oscar De la Hoya

    Idk who would be a stylistic nightmare for De La Hoya. He could box several different ways.

    Oscar will make easy work of many fishnets but this brand will give him trouble.

    Floyd's a nightmare for counterpunchers

    a counterpuncher needs to be attacked first in order to counter, it must be extremely frustrating having to fight a ***** who will never engage or initiate the action and is just trying to safely pot shot you, and forcing you to become the agressor

    one of the many reasons Floyd's w over JMM has no value at all

    It's called fighting smart.

    Why try to counter against Floyd? You can't beat him at his own game.

    Pea Whitaker even a old cracked out Pea Whitaker out landed clowned and dropped Oscar. A prime version of him would shut him out.

    He was my second choice Wright would have been a nightmare for him.
