Can you be a great fighter and a 1 dimensional plodder at the same time?

    Great fight this weekend from the veteran Orlando Salido, but about 3 fights ago some of you called him a dirty cheater and a faded shot fighter.

    Now I see guys trying to pit him against Floyd Mayweather, a man you constantly criticized for fighting plodding Latinos.

    Please tell me can you be one way and great also? Like Wladimir plodded his way to HOF maybe. How about the Cinderella Man Carlos Baldomir? Erik Morales was a plodder, some think he's great. Marcos Maidana plodded his way to 2 multi million dollars fights.
    Any others? Andrew Golata?

    So is every pressure fighter a "plodder"?

    So you can KO any HW with a single punch. Why would you need to waste energy when you can bulldoze anyone into unconsciousness? Sounds like George knew what he was doing.

    Duran must be a plodder then.

    Nice trolling by the OP. I seriously hope he is anyway.

    'Eric Morales was a plodder' lmao

    Most boxing fans don't know the difference between plodder and boxer-puncher.
