Boxers that are keeping the SWEET SCIENCE ALIVE!

Herans vs Hagler. Hearns out boxed Hagler easy but he wore hisself out . I said occasionally the boxer runs out of gas or the brawler lands a money punch and wins. In this case Tommy beat hisself by punching himself out. 15 rounds is forever. If this was a 12 round fight Tommy would have won a UD. He beat the hell out of hagler for 12 rounds straight. Hagler did not win ,Tommy lost punching out. Your examples suck son. All you did was prove me right! Thank you for helping me further prove my point! :wtf1: :rofl:.....

boxing is all about everything. its not just hit and not getting hit.. boxers who have greater heart earned people's respect more than u think.. its a great part of boxing but still just a part.. Getting hit more does not mean greater heart, it means you have less skills and little to no defense. I appreciate brawlers too, Im not downing brawlers. I'm just giving props to the ones who practice the art of boxing. Its what captivated me years ago..

Jean pascal is a boxer son, doesnt matter if he unorthordox, his form is that of a boxer. The boxer won. Pascal is a very good boxer. Pascal is a boxer? LOL the dude is athletic but he lacks fundamentals, he's as much a boxer as Pac is. Ali beat the **** out Frasier, all three times. Frasier won the first one only because of the three year Lay off of Ali. The boxer won :rofl: Lewis vs Rockman. Rockman was a boxer, not a Brawler. Lewis came in fat from not training and making a movie. The first fight the boxer won, because rockman is a boxer. IN the rematch Lewis won by ko. The boxer won!! Rahman can box but he usually resorts to trading punches and relies on his power so he is a puncher most of the time. Mayweather defeated Costillio twice, back 2 back, once even with one hand. The boxer won!!! I didn't say Floyd lost, I said he struggled. Partly because of his injury and partly because of Castillo's style, even in the rematch he didn't look good. Tyson vs holmes/spinks. At this point and time n Tysons career he was boxing LMAO Tyson has never been a boxer, he's always been a pressure fighter but he incorporated defense in his offense. Far from a boxer though. Holmes was old, and spinks never came to fight. When Buster fought tyson, tyson was a brawler. He went away from the boxing that cus taught him due to partying and not training relying on his power only. The boxer won!!! So you give Holmes a pass for being past his best but you brag about Douglas beating Tyson who wasn't at his best? :thinking: Magarita vs Cotto, Cotto was out boxing Margarita easily, but the brick hands wore Cotto down. The rematch told the true story. The boxer won!! You have no proof Margarito had illegal handwraps. In the rematch both fighters were past their prime and it was stopped prematurely. Herans vs Hagler. Hearns out boxed Hagler easy but he wore hisself out . I said occasionally the boxer runs out of gas or the brawler lands a money punch and wins. In this case Tommy beat hisself by punching himself out. 15 rounds is forever. If this was a 12 round fight Tommy would have won a UD. He beat the hell out of hagler for 12 rounds straight. Hagler did not win ,Tommy lost punching out. :rofl: Hearns ran out of gas in 3 rds? Because the fight lasted 3 rds, not 12 or 15 rds, LMAO I bet you didn't even watch this fight. Leonard vs Duran,, Leonard tryied to brawl with a brawler. But in the rematch he used the SWEET SCIENCE and made Duran the brawler QUIT!!! The boxer won!!! Doesn't matter what he tried to do, he lost. Dirrell vs froch, anyone with eyes could see Dirrell won that fight. Also Froch is a boxer. The boxer won!!! :lol1: And I don't think Dirrell lost but he clearly struggled.

Meh, you can't run forever, eventually you're gonna get caught.

boxing is all about everything. its not just hit and not getting hit.. boxers who have greater heart earned people's respect more than u think.. its a great part of boxing but still just a part..

Mayweather sells the most PPVs also has the highest grossing gates,and he gets more mainstream exposure than any other fighter. No one is talking about Pac , except you. The world is tuned into the Mayweathers, and thier colorfull lives. Pac is boring and overrated in his abilties as a fighter,proven by Marquez. Mayweather is undefeated and creates crazy media attention with his dont give a f#@k attitude, and luxurious life style. No one wants to see pac sing kareoake and kiss buboy. Stop throwing Pacs name in converstions that he doesnt belong. http://edge.ebaumsworld.com/mediaFiles/picture/899170/81469672.jpg

Right, Shane Mosley is keeping the sweet science of boxing alive. Pacquiao, well, he's not doing much ishe ? Sells the most total PPVs each year, has the highest total gates each year, sells the most tickets in the U.S. each year, and gets more mainstream exposure that any other fighter- at least that's positive. Right, Pacquiao is just a "come-forward, brawler"....how silly of me to forget.

this dude put zab judah in there... Zab is still one of the best southpaws currently fighting. Zab just earned another ttle shot last weekend. Now he gets the Peterson,Khan winner. I put Zabs name because he has always used the SWEET SCIENCE approach. Zab was able to box against Mayweather and beat him for about five rounds. Name someone else who can say that. Zab is a master at slipping and rolling punchers coming back with the sneaky upper cut, then pivit out of the way. Zab is really hard to hit clean. He is not a master at it but he does prefer to hitt and not get hit which is the bases of TSC.

What sport do brawlers practice? In red I gave you examples of boxers struggling or losing against brawlers or unorthodox fighters. http://impressthemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/myth_debunked.jpg Boxing is more complex than "skills pay the bills" "hit and don't get hit" and all those overused catch phrases. Jean pascal is a boxer son, doesnt matter if he unorthordox, his form is that of a boxer. The boxer won. Pascal is a very good boxer. The boxer won!! Ali beat the **** out Frasier, all three times.

I have to agree with Light Speed. There are many aspects of boxing that often get overlooked and require skill. The sweet science is offense too.

this guy said Shane Mosley???lol

I think you are getting form mixed up with style. Boxer and Brawler are forms of fighting. What sport do brawlers practice? Ali vs Foreman Ali vs Frazier Tyson Vs Buster douglas Tyson Vs Holmes & Spinks Mayweather vs Diego Corrales Mayweather vs Castillo Pacquiao vs Marquez 3 Pacquiao vs Barrera Lennox Lewis VS Tua Lewis vs Rahman 1 Paul williams vs Margarita Margarito vs Cotto Nonto Donaire vs Vic D Donaire vs Concepcion Devron Alexander vs juan Urango Alexander vs Matthysse Tommy Hearns vs Roberto Duran Hearns vs Hagler Leonard vs Hagler Leonard vs Duran 1 Klitscho vs Samuel Peter Wlad Klitschko vs Sanders Andre Dirrell vs Arthur Abraham Dirrell vs Froch Chad Dawson Vs Glen Johnson Dawson vs Pascal The SWEET SCIENCE has proven over and over that the boxing form is Superior to the Brawling form.

Yup Moreno should have been mentioned, as well as Pirog and Sillakh. I just named a few! Thats the reason for the post son. If you want to name some that you think are keeping the SWEET SCIENCE ALIVE then this is the thread to give them thier props. I gave some of the biggest names out thier right now but that is not all of them. There are a few more that are practing the SWEET SCIENCE! Post some vids showing the fighters you think are keeping TSC alive, in action showcasing thier skills.At the very least it will further explain to some of these young idiots what being a boxer means.Anyone can learn to fight/brawl, but only a chosen few can be taught to box.

That sentence doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I'm not talking about boxing as a style, I'm talking about the sport of boxing AKA pugilism. This sport has many different aspects and style, there is not one style that is superior to the other, that's why it's such a great sport. I think you are getting form mixed up with style. Boxer and Brawler are forms of fighting. The stance,hand and elbow placment,and movement is what makes up the style. Floyd Mayweather and Roy Jones Jr are both boxers by form but they have different styles. Floyds style is the philly shell, while Roys style have been called both the Mummy style and the chicken, based on the way he positions his hands and arms up high. Boxing form will always be superior to Brawling. There are many different styles of boxing and many different styles of brawling. But the Boxer generally has the advantage over the brawler because of the thinking and defense involved. Just look at the fights were both forms were on display against each other, Look at who won. In each of the fights below, the boxer defeated the Brawler with ease. Occasionally the brawler will get lucky and land the ko punch, or the boxer will run out of gas,thus, forcing him to brawl wth the Brawler. But usually when the degree of fighters are equal and on level playing feilds the boxer will defeat the brawler, and rightly so, after all BOXING is the name of the game! Ali vs Foreman Tyson Vs Buster douglas Mayweather vs Diego Corrales Pacquiao vs Marquez 3 Roy Jones vs Vinny Pas Lennox Lewis VS Tua Paul williams vs Margarita Nonto Donaire vs Vic D Devron Alexander vs juan Urango Tommy Hearns vs Roberto Duran Leonard vs Hagler Klitscho vs Samuel Peter Andre Dirrell vs Arthur Abraham Chad Dawson Vs Glen Johnson The SWEET SCIENCE has proven over and over that the boxing form is Superior to the Brawling form.

22 fighters have been mentioned. Yet no one mentioned one who is the closest thing to Whitaker that we got. Yup Moreno should have been mentioned, as well as Pirog and Sillakh.

Dude I give up, your not making any sense. Im not argueing if those guys were ATGs. You dont have to be a master of the SWEET SCIENCE TO BE AN ATG.I see you dont know the difference between brawlers and boxers. Brawling is one aspect of "FIGHTING" in the sport of boxing, but brawling and boxing are like apples and oranges, there completely the oppisite of each other. Its two completely differrent styles. Boxng is the style of avoiding punishment, brawling is the style of welcoming and accepting punishment. There are many brawlers that are concider to be ATGs, but SWEET SCIENCE is what seperates the sport of boxing from all other fightng sports. That sentence doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I'm not talking about boxing as a style, I'm talking about the sport of boxing AKA pugilism. This sport has many different aspects and style, there is not one style that is superior to the other, that's why it's such a great sport.

anyway as for the topic...jmm and mayweather are at the very top of course after that then i would go with ward and chad dawson, then you have the younger up and coming fighters like broner, lundy, russell jr...i would also put in mikey garcia in that young group as well, the dude has the potential to be a excellent all around fighter, he is very patent and a excellent young counter puncher also robert guerrero has very good boxing skills, also carlos molina...despite the way he fought last week, but against lara and cintron, he showed very good boxing skills and even at times against kirkland when he wasn't clinching he was still out-boxing kirkland also gabriel campillo, he gets robbed all the time but he even out-boxed most of the fighters he "lost" to so for the ignorant people who think "sweet science" "slick" "boxer" is mostly just talking about...black american fighters...your ignorant and you need to learn more about this sport you claim your a fan of brawlers are brawlers because they don't have talent, speed, reflexes or footwork to be a boxer...if they had those things do you honestly think they would be a brawler? Hell no! Nobody wants to get blasted in the face for 12 rounds, nobody is given a fighting style, you develop a fighting style around your natural abilities then, once you figure out the things you can and can't do that is when you fight style starts to develop 100% Agreed!

Mosley? The guy is a brawler, maybe a brawler with better attributes than most (handspeed, power) but he the prototypical brawler. Good thread though, I agree with what you're saying. Although I appreciate all forms of boxing as well. Mosley is not a brawler, he is what you call a boxer puncher. All though he will stand and trade at times,he still applies the SWEET SCIENCE method of making you miss while hes trading, his head moment is one of the best in the game. Dont get it twisted, Moesly is a very good boxer, he just also chooses to fight at moments, espeacially when he thinks he got you hurt!.
