Do you like them boxing, slugging, swarming? What's your thing in boxing? Feel free to bring up examples of fighters you like because of their style.
Classical Boxer/Punchers. High guard. Offensive Variety, nice combination's. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2Qq7yyBoCg[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o9TAxwll10[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRF_3VeI-LQ[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOp5ttxStrQ[/ame]
Boxer/Puncher. Although I don't believe that you need to throw bombs to be a boxer/puncher. You just need legit knockout power; either one shot power or at least enough power to wear down your opponents with combos. Boxer/Punchers are the most skilled in my opinion and are the hardest to beat.
i like watching boxer punchers the most, as i find defensive boxers a little frustrating sometimes, swarmers can be ugly and clinch and so on, and sluggers are although entertaining at times, a little crude for my fine tastes. with that being said though- if i could fight any style it would definetley be that of a boxer, look at how guys like hopkins, floyd, sugar ray, sweet pea are holding up compared to guys who engage. then again- if ur a slugger u probably have a head of granite and know it.
i love highly technical fighters, guys who rely on technique over speed, power and reflexes, guys like hopkins, mayweather and early JMM
1) Boxer - slick guys like Sweet Pea 2) Boxer/Puncher - Thomas Hearns comes to mind 3) Swarmer - Joe Frazier I don't like sluggers. It's hard for me to appreciate fighters who don't know how to work behind a great jab. They don't have to be hardcore jabbers like Ali.
I prefer to watch swarmers/brawlers so i chose that one. But i suppose number 2 is the most respected and respectable style.
