    What is your favorite boxing style and what is a goos example of it?

    I really enjoye and appreciate the pressure style, and I can appreciate the slick defensive style, but my favorite is the Boxer-Puncher.

    A great example of this style is the Fernando Vargas vs ODLH fight.

    Two geat boxer punchers, each with their own unique strengths. High quality boxing with powerful punches thrown.

    Slick, defensively responsible come forward fighters... Very rare in boxing, but they exist... Roberto Duran, Winky Wright, Floyd on a good day, nice defensively responsible fighters that come forward...

    I like Matthysse for that reason, as well as Tim Bradley. I even like Canelo when he does it

    Good analysis of mathysse most people just think he's a crude slugger but he fights very intelligently, to his detriment sometimes I think.

    Shane Mosleys style is my favorite. He's so explosive and throws every punch with bad intentions. He can also box and fight intelligently when he needs to.

    My favorite is what I call offensive dynamo which I reserve for fighters like SRR, RJJ, SRL

    But I also love slick defensive geniuses like Whitaker, FMJ, Locche, James Toney, Rigondeaux, etc.

    I like Mayweather style.
    We know hes fighting a stronger guy heavier puncher but he finds a way to win. Its insane

    I like GGG fights but man I hate the way he puts these guys away so fast.

    I also like Marquez style.

    other then that I watched morales barerra 1 when i was a kid on HBO when it happened
    what ever styles they were I like under mayweather. Its probally my #1 fight

    Evasive defensive wizards who feint, jab, sidestep, lull and drop the hammer.

    Counterpunchers are my favorite. Just the way you can see the shots being set up. I love that.

    I like counter punchers too, especially when they create opportunities to counter by feinting, or luring their opponent in like JMM and Canelo to some extent.
