    Yes they do use angles, in and out movement at times as well as other things. But their main game is to walk you down, wear you down and drill you with power shots or volume. They drown you. All that box and move dancing around **** tip-tapping yeah it works. It works for some. But not for all. At the end of the day you're going to have to grind down at some point and smash. And that is what these guys do. And they do it exceptionally well. Multi-Game plan which is what you need to become a successful fighter at the top level.

    As Tszyu said, he's not a tip-tap fighter. He's a finisher. As is Tank Davis.

    And they're the ****ing best at it too.

    Tim Tszyu - He's coming to De-Throne YOU!!!!!!!

    Yes Tank Davis drowns his opponents with the lowest punch output in the sport. Amazing!

    Tank Davis fighting TBA opponents at age 30 is not throwback in any way.

    Tim Tsyzu just might be a real throwback fighter though

    Why you didn't mention Inoue next to Tim and Tank?

    Tank building his legacy on regular belts at 30 years old is just shameful at this point.

    Judging by your post i think its fair to say you never saw Gervonta fight.

    Even as someone who likes Tank, I would not call him a throwback fighter lol, it’s been a long time since he walked anyone down, these days he waits patiently counter-punching, until an opening appears and only then he’ll pounce

    Naoya Inoue is who you’re trying to describe, a real throwback fighter who fights everyone and uses his power to bully opponents
