    Jackson and McClellan were certainly not brawlers, McClellan especially (skilled boxer-puncher with great footwork).

    Tyson was definitely not a brawler, he was a mid-range counter-puncher.

    Joe Calzaghe is a good example of a fast-handed brawler! Maybe Aaron Pryor too.

    Have you seen Big G figh and the hawk? they can box but they have the brawler mentality

    on the other hand Joe its a boxer puncher,but he doesnt brawl!

    he waits his time and hits you, just like with the boom like mosley

    Calzaghe was a straight-ahead brawler who took punches to land his own, and overwhelmed you with his workrate and power.

    McClellan preferred to circle opponents, use his jab as a range-finder and time his launches.

    Pacquiao and Mosley are brawlers who can box a bit.

    Nothing wrong with Provodnikov's hand speed.
