    Which boxers do you find use similar technique to each other ?

    I start :
    1. Ezzard Charles , Orlin Norris
    2. Muhammad Ali , Larry Holmes
    3. Wladimir Klitschko , John David Jackson
    4. Michael Spinks (HW) , Pernell Whitaker (LW)
    5. Jersey Joe Walcott , Montell Griffin



    And can anyone describe the differences inside each of these sets :
    1. George Chuvalo , Oscar Bonavena , Jerrry Quarry
    2. Jimmy Young , Chris Byrd

    i would say julio cesar chavez and jose luis castillo (long time gym partners)

    nacho beristain's fighters all use a similar style (marquez brothers, zaragoza and ricardo lopez)

    Frazier and Marciano ? I know that there were some differences,but when he first started,I can recall Joe being described as the black Marciano.

    Shouldn't it has been JCC and Jose Luis Ramirez ?
    And wasn't DLH a Beristain fighter as well ?

    very possible that jose luis ramirez was part of jcc stable, castillo was a long time sparing partner for jcc as well.

    you told me something i dident know if dela hoya was a beristain fighter, his style looks a bit diffrent to beristain's other fighters to me.

    And I didn't know Castillo was Chavez' sparing partner and stablemate .
    When I watched JCC vs. Ramirez the commentators told they were stablemates .
    And if you meant Nacho Beristain I think he either taught or helped to improve DLH's hook to the body .
