    Of the big boys of late, Povetkin gets some nice angles going.

    Great shout out on Calizales. I love his footwork. How he turns and pivots to find perfect punching distance. Beautiful boxer!

    If you are looking for a body puncher who created wonderful angles, look at Ricky Hatton.

    All the top fighters.

    Marvin Hagler and Evander Holyfield come to mind.

    Vitali Klitchko was a master at this, though it was hidden the way he positioned his footwork and used distance with his reach to utilize what the thread is about.
