    Hi, I was just thinking what was the best stylistic clash between a boxer, mover, defensive fighter, etc, vs and agressor, pressure fighter, puncher, etc. You get the point, it doesn't have to be a specific slickster versus a pressure fighter, it could be a textbook boxer fighting a less skilled but more powerful agressor, or something close to it. So, what's the best stylistic clash in boxing you've seen ?



    ps: I'm interested in seeing it (or seeing it again) so although I'm interested in all of your opinions, I'd like to know of fights that I could see footage of. Thanks :good

    Walcott-Marciano I defines this style clash in my opinion. You should definitely see it if you haven't.

    Ike Williams vs Beau Jack is a good clash

    Sandy Saddler-Willie Pep

    Frazier-Ali I of course

    Dempsey-Tunney I and II was some of the best examples
