    That's the best description for those fighters man...the Panamanian fighters mostly had the same starter pack(excluding Duràn since he was the special kid):
    -dark,afro skin
    -good infighting skills
    -stupid amount of reach advantage
    -smooth movement,mwah~
    -occasionally got dirty
    -both hands hurt a ton
    Any opinion on em?

    Hilario Zapata ranks as a quite amazing fighter, a man with 24 world title fights on his resume.

    Panama has had a history of great boxers like Roberto Durán, Ismael Laguna, Eusebio Pedroza, Hilario Zapata, Ernesto Marcel, Jorge Luján, Panamá Al Brown, Anselmo Moreno who all personified that silky smooth boxing style with a bit of roughness in them.

    Nowadays you hardly see any top boxers from Panama which is unfortunate.

    Yeah,I hated their dirty game but absolutely enjoyed that smooth outboxing and infighting,we need more Panamanian top fighters.
