hey guys how many brawlers have become succesful boxers by that i mean brawler to box

pacquiao was pretty much a left hand happy southpaw at the start of his career. no effective jabs or lead hooks. that changed after pacquiao-morales 1

Maidana is getting there... I was very impressed... (Now for the super know-it-alls out there) He was by no means a top tier boxer, but from how he started to how he looked in his last fight, if ur not impressed with that u r a douchebag I was impressed that a man can take that many fists to the head and still speak without drooling. Future Pugilistic Parkinsons candidate right there. Fun to watch but far from skilled,relatively speaking.

i only know of one succes story narco antonio barrera does anybody else know of any others ****! Should have read more than the title of the thread before posting! :lol1:

Barrera used to brawl a lot as a youngster. Not face first no skill brawling, but brawling non the less.

Barrera. Cotto, sort of. Rafael Marquez? I think Hopkins was way more aggressive early in his career, he even admitted that he wanted to be the next Mike Tyson, lol.

George Foreman was almost a pure brawler during the first part of his career, but then came back with more boxing skills when he was older.

Carl Froch isn't a brawler that became a boxer, he's been boxing since he was a kid and won medals as an amateur.

yuppie thanks for reminding me of cal froch almost forgot about him

Carl Froch..?

Idk not many but there's fighters that could brawl one second and change it back to boxing easily first that comes is Duran.
