    Until you fight a guy like who is almost unbreakable. Marvin Hagler used that style on Tommy Hearns and there was almost nothing he could do about it.

    I’ve never had a problem with a comer. Guys who run and hold are the toughest to face.
    For instance, mike hunter was a lot tougher sparring for me then jeramiah graziano.
    Styles make fights.

    You must be a very hard puncher. Usually the guys who have the hardest time with swarmers are pure boxers.

    I mean Joe Frazier gave Ali a certified ass kicking. Margarito broke Cotto. Chavez broke Taylor. Hagler broke Hearns. Pryor broke Arguello. Pacquiao broke Barrera.

    I could go on and on with the examples. Legendary, and tremendous fighters have succumbed to a savaging and relentless aggressor. Even smack in their primes.

    Which brings to mind Floyd Mayweather not wanting any part of Antonio Margarito.

    Floyd wanted nothing to do with margarito because of his brittle hands.

    As a fighter, no one has come close to the skills displayed by Lomachenko.
