    Dzinziruk - jab jab and jab some more.

    Wladimir Klitschko - needs no explanation.

    Marco Huck - just charges forward throwing haymakers to the point that he smothers his own work and ends up in a clinch.

    Carlos Molina- killed the stereotype of all Mexican based boxers being exciting brawlers
    Rocky Martinez- The guy looks like an albino ape and has a weird awkward style. Arguably lost his last 2 fights.
    Wlad Klitschko- never in my day would I have thought that heavyweight boxing would be boring, we gotta rely on clowns like Haye, Fury and Arreola for it to be at least somewhat enjoyable.

    Arthur Abraham, even if he has produced some eye-catching KOs. He has 2 basic modes, with very little else in between: plodding around in a turtle shell, soaking up punches on his gloves; or planting his feet and throwing wild, clubbing hooks. You can practically set your watch by him.

    Most slick fighters are pretty awlful to watch. I liked Jones in some if his fights but most slicksters are just running and it's boring. Wlad is awful too. Floyd 45-0, pretty much all boring fights. Pity.

    Wladimir Klitschko but only in some certain fights. I would have to say Andre Direll. He makes even spectacular fighters look boring. His fights with Stevens and Froch, who are knockout artists, were not just boring but painful to watch. That style of running around, avoiding punches and occasionally throwing jabs is annoying as hell. Only thing worse than that is a clinching contest by John Ruiz or Wladimir Klitschko but like I previously said he doesnt fight like this in every fight.

    Floyd is actually not that boring, he is not constantly running around the ring, he is not shy of throwing punches and good variety of punches. People think its boring because they want him to lose and he is dominating.

    Most heavyweights are just awful starting with Wlad, Sturm and Abraham spend almost the entire rounds just covering up and each throws punches like they cost them money. Richard Abril is another one with a sleep inducing style.Theres others but these are the ones that come to mind right now.

    Rigo - No explaination needed

    Hopkins - throws one punch then looks to clinch, hold, grab, wrestle, or headbutt he is essentially a mini version of John Ruiz.

    Ward - just an ugly 'style' of fighting.
