    Oscar in his prime with Alcazar is what you call pure boxing.

    My definition of a pure boxer is a guy like Pernell Whitaker. Relies entirely on his technical ability to get the job done, possessing little to no knockout power. Wilfred Benitez, Michael Nunn, and Calderon are good examples.

    Two "pure boxers" operating at different levels of talent.

    Sergio Martinez and Yuri Foreman.

    Boxer-puncher. 38 knockouts in 51 wins is a fairly high KO ratio.

    Boxer-puncher.

    Somebody who can always win without hurtin their opponent simply based on skills. Hittin and not gettin hit. Jab, footwork, defense, combinations, tactical clinching if necessary.
