    mayorgas looping overhand right, and wind mill power punch combos is one of the most entertaining fighting styles i've seen. entertaining in the sense that it makes you laugh, but also have "holy ****! WTF?" moments:lol:. the thing that amazes me though is that his punch output is high for a 6 round fighter. that, or he does'nt know the meaning of "pacing":lol:. definitely one of the most entertaining characters in the sport.

    Calzaghe's punching technique is ******* horrible. Still a hugely successful fighter who is good to watch. A lot of guys seem to be picking "horrible" looking fightes, but Mayweather is the most graceful and special just now, and his techniqe isn't great.

    Technique and aesthetics are completely different fields.

    Yes Sam Solaman wins the worst technique with Stipe Drews being the most boring fighter

    I think Naz was perhaps the most unorthodox elite fighter of all time, throwing punches from all kinds of angles.

    I wonder what Oscar Juarez and Manny Steward thought they were looking at when he first walked into their gym!

    Ruiz, Solomon and Darchinyan.

    I'm not a massive fan of how Calzaghe's technique looks either.
