    If Rocky had learnt the peek a boo style would he have won fights easier for example the Charles fight where his nose was cut that may not have hapened if he had that style, do you thing he would of been able to imply it well enough to his benefit or would it ultimately of made him worse because you believe his rough brawling style benefited him?

    I think his style was perfect for him, I remember someone saying he was the most clumsiest and uncoordinated boxer he'd ever seen. I think Tyson's natural athletic ability comes into play here. Remember Mike peaked very early.

    Marcianos style of fighting suited him and It was because of his awkward all in style of fighting that he did so well ,if he had of tried to fight any different way he would have been beaten ................thats also why he got out when he did ,because his style of fighting /boxing could not have been maintained as he aged and either he or his camp had the sense to know that !
