Fighters who are a"poor man's version" of other fighters

Jimmy Young, Ali; Bert Cooper, Mike Tyson

 

Howard Davis, Jose Legra and a young Gerrie Coetzee

 

Also would include G.Page, M.Dokes. All the Mayweather jr. imitators of the last 5 yrs, The Tyson imitator like B.Cooper.

 

Love Clancy, but I'm really not seeing that.

 

Like Chavez, Yuh is more a technical pressure fighter than an outright swarmer. Defensively astute too, which most seem to forget when it comes to Chavez.

 

Surprised no ones mentioned Adrien Broner yet, he's the daddy of boxing impersonators, he's modeled himself on Floyd in every way possible minus in ring success - His fighting style is a carbon copy, his brash persona, even his facial expressions are copies of Floyd.

There was a Mike Tyson impersonator back in the late 90's from Britain who I think fought in the 130lbs division - The black trunks and boots, fighting style minus the speed and power, he even used Tyson's nervous neck twitch during the introductions. Wish I could remember the guy's name, anyone help ?? Edit : Charles Sheperd

 

Haven't really seen Clottey to speak of.

 

Clotted followed. Tiger tracked his man down. Tiger much more fluid, and of course much more aggressive too.

Similarly hard as nails, but Clottey was happy to hold his gloves high and chill out too much for my liking.

 

Vitali Klitschko was a poor man's Primo Carnera
Bowe was a poor man's Battling Jim Johnson

 

I have heard Roger Mayweather called a poor man's Tommy Hearns.
