    Flashy offensive fast puncher.Gamboa

    Flashy defensive fast counter puncher.Mayweather.

    All out awkward south paw whirlwind puncher not as skilled though ugly scrappy technique and form.So Pacquiao drops in at 3.

    Power punching sniper.Lacks work rate, slick defense and boring.So Donaire drops in at 4.

    my number 1 is watching guys with crazy speed and athleticism.

    my number 2 is slick counterpunching

    but in reality I love watching all styles if executed properly and my favorite fighters have various styles amongst them.

    I was so tempted to go with slick and black like Carl Froch but most of my favourite fighters have been Mexican.
    And like RTB I have a weakness for any style executed well.Nathan Cleverly is a marvellous exponent of the "**** World Champion" style.

    Why would anyone pick either of the last 2 options?? :yep


    For me, I have 2 primary categories

    The unorthodox athletic fighter that throws a huge wrench in a technical boxer's game
    -Jones, Pac, etc

    The technician who's game mirrors theoretical soundness
    -Floyd, Bhop, etc


    These usually end up inclusive with athletic and elite.

    Slick fighters no doubt, because even the **** guys are entertaining when trying to pull off the reflex approach.

    I was always drawn to sadistic beat yer 2 a pulp merchants like Duran/Gomez & JCC ect, but to watch sweet-pea & young hector camacho operate is a joy to the eye.
