Younger posters seem to use the word 'slick' a lot and think it equals boring..
Watch these highlights of a classic fight, and see a great slick fighter that will still fight like a dog in there..
This guy was one of a kind...

Yeah,,,, defensive but aggressive... Pernell was the king of that, though he could get alitle too aggressive and get sloppy and tagged... That happened on numerous occasions..
James toney is another one that was very slick but loved to stand and trade
The slickest fighter with feet stuck in the mud I ever saw.
Margarito was as slick of a bruva as they come. The way his chin connected with his opponents fist just makes you think like damn! I totally thought that punch was going to miss, but Margs slickness strikes again!

I'm still pissed they robbed Whitaker blind against Ramirez and Chavez. He schooled those two, especially Ramirez. But I'm glad he got revenge against Ramirez.
Well he was often criticized for his output...that's not to say he wasn't a bad ass but its a little mis leading lol. A lot of the slick guys have some dog in them. James Toney was fairly agressive and Calzaghe is good shoutout too. Whitaker was indeed one of a kind though.
You don't see many southpaws with as good of a right hook anymore, it's his ability to operate in the pocket I admired most because it leaves no room for excuses, you couldn't cut him off and then you had a serious mess to deal with up close. My sig says it all
this is why i like lomachenko so much........the guy is the "one" neo in the real life form came to a boxing ring......slick as ever but very offensively minded.
