    Hopkins as said,but it is extraordinary doing what he's doing at 48/49.

    Of course your list is void of any black fighters. Why doesn't this surprise me?

    Well, i get annoyed by spoliers and people who clinch alot. Ok its strategic etc, trainers even encourage you to clinch when in trouble etc.
    But yeah, as a fan i wanna see people throwing punches, good exchanges, fighting their way out of trouble.....

    People who clinch more than is necessary are frustrating to watch.
    So take a bow Wladimir Klitschko (or in fact most heavyweights........and dont babble on about a **** division etc. Even the classic heavyweight fights are full of huge guys leaning and clinching.....), Andre Ward, Bernard Hopkins........

    Yeah all guys who are either unbeatable (not Hopkins) or hard to look good against....so this style is effective for them and will see them continuing in this vein. If you're trying to school someone in the technical aspects of smothering and spoiling you might view these fighters for reference.
    But yeah, as a fan who likes watching fights........ not fun to watch at all.

    I find Donaire's style boring. He doesn't let his hands go he doesn't take any risk which was understandable against Rungundeaux. But against Vasqueer and Mathebulo, COME ON!!

    I find Pacquiao's style ugly specially early in his career. Although he has improved a bit. But back then his technique was atrocious to watch.

    I love Juan Manuel Marquez box It's poetry to me.He doesn't have the speed or athleticism but a great boxer a pleasure to watch.

    How is Rigo boring, I found the performance against Doniare amazing. Hopkins is pretty boring although his last fight was good. Carlos Molina is the only fighter I can't stand watching.
