    james toney.... straight philly shell, right arm across the chest with the left covering the stomach


    duran.... right hand always at the side of the chin, using left hand as a radar


    i also really like donaire's stance... theres some karate **** about it that i cant quite put my finger on, lookin like bruce lee hoppin back n forth


    etc...


    the first few seconds of each fight when they meet in the middle of the ring is a good time to see the stance.... who elses stances do you enjoy watching in action?

    Roy Jones has the coolest stance of all time... with the left hand perched out like a cobra ready to strike. Ahh, those were the days.

    true he had lots of swag but he carried the left at his waist... way too dangerous and arrogant

    Tyson and Roy Jones.

    Tysons stance looked low, accompanied with his pitbull physique and his evil looking face, it all made for a good stance. Plus his stance was convenient for his style.

    Roys stance is unorthadox, high risk, cocky but lovely to watch in anticipation of whats to come. Sometimes its a trap but for the most part its beautiful however I wonder at times if Roy just applied a more conventional stance would he have been better of?...

    Surprisingly my worst ever stance is that of the great one Muhammad Ali.

    Roy Jones Jr, Floyd Mayweather Jr, Manny Pacquiao, all have very unique stances. In fact their styles are exclusive to them, and anyone who copies it will be seen as copying them.

    As for a technical stance, Bernard Hopkins or Shane Mosley in the recent Pacquiao fight. Perfect stance, perfect technique.
