My list of the most annoying style of fighting in boxing:
Arthur Abraham
Sergio Mora
Andre Ward
Wladimir Klitschko
Yuri Foreman
Andre Dirrell and Guillermo Rigondeaux(when they fight scared)
John Ruiz
Joe Calzaghe
i wouldnt be a fan of the sport if i didnt enjoy watching men fight.
i can learn from, and be entertained by almost any fight
i will say that there's a certain style i cannot stand.
running and holding in excess does defeat the purpose of the sport in my eyes (being the more effective puncher)
i will watch literally any fight
the only fights i shy away from are (and i'll watch anything once)
-horrific beatings that go on for far too long
-great fighters way beyond their primes getting destroyed by guys they'd lick back in their days
i get annoyed by guys who are out of shape
boxing is the most noble pursuit there is
no one is more worthy of admiration than a great boxer.
out of shape fighters shame the sport
they reduce it's quality
and do us all a massive disservice.
Great post, Green K coming ASAP (out of Karma now).
Chad Dawson, Felix sturm.
Half of guerreros fights and Sergio mora.
salita and foreman.
Terrible to watch. Ward is borderline.
Broner doesnt count cuz he's a never will be.
could add Danny Williams to that list as well
Audley has been in some dire fights over the years
danny williams has been in some very good dust ups
audley's a shame in that he doesnt use what he's got
even if it's much less than it once appeared to be
do you think he fixed his fight with haye for bet money?

Good thread,
Ward, he knows exactly what he needs to do to win and can fight from all ranges, does it all, just that it ain't pretty. It's hard to rewatch his stuff too...
Chad Dawson, my GOD...he's capable of so much more, but he can be boring to watch.
