Which Style Do Respect More, Brawling Or Boxing?

the g-man gerald mcclellan.. baddest man on the planet in the 90s before he was permanently damaged by the p4p hardest puncher ever julian jackson and then collapsed in a following fight with nigel benn. He was a beast, I can still remember that Benn fight. Mcclellan KO'd Julian Jackson in 1 round before fighting Benn and he almost had Benn out in the 1st. But Nigel Benn was a beast himself and his unique brawling style did too much damage to McClellan in the end, classic fight but a tragedy how it ended.

The way you list the word brawling, it has a negative connotation. I like both. I think the majority of people can prefer brawling because it's normally non stop action where aa a skillful boxing match can be slower paced. I think it also depends on the boxers.

My favorite boxers can do a bit of both. Mine to. Terry Norris Marco Barrera Azumah Nelson I also a bit of a fan of Riddick Bowe. All of these fight and Box imo.

My favorite boxers can do a bit of both.

I respect them both, but I prefer boxing. co-sign this

who is that guy on your avatar? the g-man gerald mcclellan.. baddest man on the planet in the 90s before he was permanently damaged by the p4p hardest puncher ever julian jackson and then collapsed in a following fight with nigel benn.

I like both but give it to boxing more than brawling. Love watching a pure boxer vs. a brawler. Pretty much always an exciting match.

I respect both, Chavez & Joe Frazier are two of my favourite fighters because of the excitement they brought to the ring and because of their non stop aggression/pressure, they were straight up beasts. That said Boxing requires you to have the nerve to be able to sit in the eye of the storm and have faith in your skills. Believe it or not it takes more balls to box, any idiot can go out aggressively and let both hands go, but when you box you have to curb your natural instincts and there is larger risk of getting stopped imo, that might sound like a strange thing to say but the reason i say that is................when you meet the opponent head on, your offence can keep be your defence sometimes, but when you are trying Box you are invariably trying throw less punches and using angles/movement to make up for the fewer punches you are throwing, that can lead to you being overwhelmed by the opponent if your Boxing does not stick. Everyone thinks of Tyson as a beast but i see him as a fighter who was fighting scared a lot of the time, to me he fought so ferociously because he could not stay composed with all the pent up fear and nerves he had inside him so he had to go out like a mad man to get those feelings out of his system before they consumed him.

i enjoy and respect boxing more. dont like brawling at all. my favoutite type of fighter is the boxer-puncher, but as the name goes the boxing is always first. dont like guys who just take one to give one and put their head down and brawl, not entertaining to me. i want to see KOs as much as anyone else but i like skillful KOs, when people get set up. boxer punchers.. like the man in my avatar, aggressive but using his jab and boxing skills.

Boxing takes more athleticism than brawling. So I respect boxing more. Still, brawling might be more entertaining.

I like a guy that does a little of both, profficiently. Pure boxers are great, but can get annoying when they refuse to try and put their opponents away when they outclass them by a wide margin, and constant brawling, in my opinion, just doesn't belong in a boxing ring. I like to see two highly skilled guys go at it, otherwise it's no fun for me to watch.

I respect them both, but I prefer boxing.

I respect more the guy who is taking more chances.

I'm alot more into Boxining but acknowledge that Boxing would suck without variety of styles. As for respect, I respect both equally.
