    Who is more entertaining to watch?

    The careful boxers who seek out their opportunities to punch and tend to use a lot of movement?

    Or

    The fighters who go straight in for a phone booth style war?

    I'd say for pure fireworks the brawler is always good to watch. But when a boxer is fast slick and hard to hit yet keeps nailing his opponent as they try to get inside its a thing of beauty to watch...hence why they call it the sweet science. Muhammed Ali in his prime years...like against Cleveland Williams - that was pure poetry in motion watching him dance around him and pick him off.

    Both exciting but a good boxer usually is better to watch if he is good enough to control his opponent. Hmmm but then I think of prime Tyson...the most exciting heavyweight i've ever seen. Damn its just so hard to choose. :patsch
