    Do you consider him a peek-a-boo boxer or just a basic brawler? The reason I ask is that the trainer at my gym said my style when sparring reminds him of Shawn Porter (obviously I'm not nearly as good and I'm not implying I'm anywhere close to his level). This surprised me somewhat as I've never really thought of my style resembling Porter's all that much, and he is known for being a little dirty and head butting quite a bit.

    I'd say he's a classic Mauler.

    Bum Rushing, Mauling, Punch Smotherer sounds about right.

    What are the main differences between a brawler and a mauler?

    I hate this style, gotta be honest. Disgusting to watch, headbutts all the time.

    Very very sloppy. There's no defense there.
