Isn't the most beautiful part of boxing is having fighters with contrasting styles go a it and see who can figure out who first? | BoxingScene Community
As boxing fans we know that there is more to boxing than 2 guys just slugging it out. The sweet science part is what draws us in. We are given a great disservice when boxers refuse to fight another boxer because "they don't like their style". That's the whole point of this thing is to unlock a guys style and beat him. Leonard Ellerbe did an interview last week where he was talking about how differing styles can affect fights. He didn't name the boxer (I am thinking Maidana) but he said there was a fighter that was rocking Floyd with hard shots due to his use of angles causing Floyd to have to adjust to that style. Now having said that I don't mind guys who have the same styles trying to beat the hell out of each other until someone can't get up. The I won't fight him because I don't like his style BS is shameful!!
