think about what i said befor you guys hate, and you'll realise what im saying.
i first noticed it when i saw Bradley fight witter, and witter was open to rights cuz he had no head movement,
then i begain to look into it, hatton has 0 head movement.
witter stands to upright.
wlad has no headmovement and stands upright, but he can pull it off becaz he's like 6'8 or somethin.
and i noticed it in the european that chambers fought.
for all the guys that train boxing in europe, do they teach this style?
I agree with you on this altho the first exception that springs to mind for me is Haye. The Eastern European fighters in particular always look very upright and stiff. For me personally in both the boxing clubs I've been to barely taught us any head movement which really pissed me off as I see it as an essential part of boxing particularly if you're going to be a counter puncher. Every region has their own style mind each with their own individual flaws
yeah that's true.
I don't know why but all regions and even ethnicities have their own style of fighting (generally speaking of course).
European
Mexican
African American
Cuban
etc.
It's just difference in training, culture (think how important Pride is to Mexicans which explains their style of fighting), etc.
ye its true
south americans are known for their heart
american fighters for their speed and skills
europeans for their timing and technical skills
its all very general and even though styles make fights a boxers nationality has very little influence in determining the winner of any given fight imo
bend dem kneez, move your head, give lateral movement, and keep your hands up.etc...
Boxing Basics and not hard to do...
It's not just Euro fighthers, Kelly P. does the same.:bigeyes:
pavlik only fights one way, thats why,
if pavlik cant land the jab, he cant win lol

that is the european stereotype, which is mostly true (not always I mean calzaghe doesn't really fit into any category).
But they are also usually very technically skilled fighters. Standing upright, having your feet set, etc. is probably the more correct way of fighting. It's just not as efficient imo.
i know there's some exceptions, but it leaves you open to counters to much imo.
