    Felix Trinidad. Just watching his stance, you could see he had so much power ready to explode. Very technical.

    Floyd, Roy, and Martinez are probably my favorites. Never really gave it too much thought, though.

    Kostya Tszyu as well. I enjoyed how he used to regulate distance.

    Gotta mention Carlos Monzon as well. Really old-school looking stance.

    Hell yeah, I was gonna say Arguello. Absolutely the best example of a balanced stance ready to jab and throw combos. Chin nice and tucked. But if you want exciting I really like Tyson with the head low, moving side to side looking to counter with big hooks. No one has good enough head movement to do it like Tyson though.

    I like Gamboas stance. Really calm but very explosive. Too many to name!!

    of current active fighters I like Sergio Martinez and his Southpaw stance.

    Salvador Sanchez, really relaxed, but deceiving stance.
    Floyd Mayweather, one of the best defensive stances fighting off the backfoot.
    Finito Lopez, perfect stance great at fighting or defending off the lead or backfoot.
    Bernard Hopkins, chin tucked, hands high, and knees slightly bent.

    Prime George Foreman's bear stance and soul-destroying swings

    Carlos Monzon's upright stance, with his cold hammering jab and punishing right

    Joe Louis textbook stance with hands up/chin tucked down, leading to those brutal short uppercut - into hook combos.

    Lately, I'm liking the standup fighters.
