Boxing Enigmas?

Kirkland Laing

Abe Attell

Jem Mace

 

That's what I would have said.

I'm pretty sure Kirkland couldn't figure out what he was doing himself 95% of the time.

 

Laing is a good shout ,I saw him box rings around Colin Jones twice ,only to be kod each time,Young Griffo was considered unfathomnable ,sober and at his best.

 

He fought with his hands at waist height ,used a lot of feints ,he had quick hands and good power,relied on his reflexes to evade punches,one of his more noteworthy wins was over a comebacking Duran.

 

Short article about him on this very site

Burley and Calzage are in here imo , i'll probably get criticised for Calzage!! I'm ready

 

greb

 

Again, you seem to simplify Greb's style, even though many accounts describe him as more than just a pure pressure swarmer, especially the accounts of his sessions with Dempsey. Armstrong was easier to figure out for sure, based on his losses. I see Greb as more of a mixture of Saddler and Calzaghe style-wise than a bigger Armstrong.

 

I hear this - that Greb was similar to Calzage , in and out , but overwhelming all the time
