"African American boxer" He can brawl, counter punch and has an excellent chin. Don't forget about his accuracy and timing, who is also P4P number two in the world.
Jorge Linares-slick
Joe Calzaghe-slick
Ivan Calderon-slick (i guess if manny fought calderon it wouldnt count because he's not "american black")
Paulie Malignaggi-Slick
Nonito Donaire-slick
throughout history
willie pep, hector camacho, ricardo lopez, kid gavilan, johnny tapia, naseem hamed, chiquita gonzalez etc
being a "slick boxer" is not exclusive to black american fighters. Other races of boxers are capable of being slick boxers.
No. Just no!
Gonzalez changed his style into a complete boxer/puncher but he was never slick, and Paulie is about as un-slick a boxer as I've seen in recent years. Guy gets his head smashed in every fight.
Gavilan wasn't slick either. He was a nut-case brawler that was very quick and skilled but he wasn't slick.
Sorry, just had to nitpick over some.
i hate when people say African American, just say black damn. lol
what the difference?
I seen people who are much darker than African/African and they are not African they are arab or South Asian.
JMM is first time exploring the weight as well as it not the style of countering that matters. It is how to use them.
Floyd is a very good demonstartion on how to use his boxing abilities toward his advantage.
Excellent chin? In his last 5 fights or so he's been dropped and rocked badly at some point. Whether that's because he's become more offensive minded lately or just because he's always had some fragility in that chin of his.
His defense is his only weak point, his counterpunching is 2nd to none and he is definitely a crowd pleaser and a true warrior as one could hope to see.
So Marquez has a more complete style than any boxer born black in America in his era,tell me,does this include B-Hop,Mayweather,Mosley,Sweet Pea and so forth??Just curious!!
hopkins>marquez
marquez's defense is flawed.
Don't even bother turning this into a race thing...
yeah but counter punch u cant compare....b hopkins is a borefest to watch with his d and 1 punch counters

He does not have a great chin, but its sufficient.
He is not that hard to hit either.

To bad he no head movement and also he has weak chin. He just got alot of heart and can recover fast.
Floyd actually dont get touch and actually put fighters to school. Floyd dominated a more competitive lightweight division and shown a more complete style. Its that he moved up to welterweight where you can brawl against fighters and when you have to be more elusive because of the more power. Marquez went to war with lightweights and was losing both of his lightweight fights until he knocked they ass out.
:gives: Just get off this racial garbage. Shit is tasteless. Haterfree has arrived. I'm surprised the other race baitin Mr boat buyer stans Flawless, Horus, and Brandish have yet to appear.
