Whats better to you?

Why do people associate being an aggresive fighter with having no defence or how about a boxer puncher. Duran is a good example of someone who didn't get hit as much as people might think in the lower weights when he was young. He was aggressive and had an exciting style but wasn't hit that much. Tito was an exciting boxer puncher that dominated the WW's with excitement and KO's but he didn't have a true war until Vargas and Tito never really took punishment and many shots till he went to MW. The thing with "Wars" is that its usually the combination of good equally matched fighters who are only separated by the amount of heart and will they have. Look at Hatton versus slow ass urango. Hatton is a close quarter swarmer but because of the bad matchup (in Hatton's favor) he was able to box him and keep it from being a war.

depends how much money either way I'd rather be the boxer. No amount of money is worth looking like Ali. I'd give less than a shit about what future fans thought. Its my life not their's.

So basically you'd wanna be a boring ass fighter with little to no fans and have people talking shit your whole life. Well at least I know if you were that kind of fighter like that piece of shit Hamed, then I, a blood and guts fighter like Barrera could beat the shit out of you and make you look fucken stupid. I'd rather be that than be a blood and guys warrior with my fans being people like you

What would you rather be? A blood and guts warrior with glorious bloody exhausting wars and having such glorious wins throughout your career but years later having a slowed speech and other diminished motor skills, but not entirely brain damaged, just somewhat damaged, or being a boring excellent boxer your whole career having no great battles or glorious victories and being entirely normal years later? I'd say blood and guts. You? depends how much money either way

A mix if both I would have called for blood and guts but fighters die from fights so no. I like guys with good technique.

I got a glorious blood n guts fighter who still has his faculties. So there! :headbang: Roberto Duran

You have got to be the most ignorant piece of shit on the history of Boxing Scene. I suppose then, that by your rationale, Gatti is better than Mayweather right? Chavez beat Whitaker right? Tito beat Hopkins right? Foreman and Liston beat Ali right? Shut the fuck up. And you've got to be pretty psychologically fucked up to prefer having slowed speech cuz you got tortured with punches all your life than being perfectly fine after having a career which humiliated opponents and demostrated that you mastered the art of boxing.

I can't believe you guys would pick the second choice. Wouldn't you love to look back one day at a tough war in the last round where you're bleeding and tired and hurt and yet you pushed your hardest to win? Not even if only one time? I would. It would be boring to just be jabbing your whole career without waging war. People would just be like "remember when he beat him and him and him by UD?" Instead of "remember in that exciting fight where he was hurt and it was such a good war with exchanges and they showed their heart" Boxing is an art, an art of war though.

id like to be a mix, like a Ray Leonard or a Marvin Hagler.
