Nonito Donaire relies a lot more on his athleticism than any pure boxer I've ever seen.
To me, pure boxing was always a way to compensate for a lack of athleticism or laziness. It was like, "oh let me sit down, wait for you to punch, I'll pick my shots, and if you don't throw at all, well I guess I'll be happy with a draw, as long as I don't have to sweat or get hurt."
That's fine if it's what you like. But my preferred style is to just overwhelm an opponent with punches and determination. Never backwards, always forwards.
I have a preference for pure boxers, I didnt call anyone of them "Pure boxer"....2 different things.
Edit i was referring to Mayweather as a pure boxer, Not JMM who i class as a counterpuncher or Lopez, Mosley- boxer-puncher.. etcLast edited by Ray*; 01-07-2011, 06:22 PM.

He's still pretty much the same fighter with a few subtle improvements, that's all.. He's a brawler-boxer... or a skilled brawler should i say... Technically, he's below average.. BUt the reason why he's been looking better than he really is because he's been fed with tailor made opponent who came right at him.. SO yea that makes alot of people believe that he's improved, technically, but, let's see if those improvements work on opponents who dont compliement his style... The last time he fought someone dangerous was MArquez in a rematch and he looked hela amaterish...
Do you know what you're talking about?
If he was such a brawler, then why isn't he getting hit more often by bigger men? Why is a small WW able to compete with a 165 lb man?
When was the last time a one dimensional brawler could compete with bigger men without getting KTFO?
Marquez is one of the best technicians and counter punchers of this era.
Since when does getting hit by a counter puncher make you look amateurish?
In fact if Pac looked so amateurish why didn't he lose those fights by wide margins?
I think you're in denial son.
Open your eyes and see that Pac is the most accomplished Offensive fighter of this era.
He would've been KO'd by Cotto, Margarito, and Clottey if he was indeed a one dimensional brawler like you say.
