      Go to the gym. Hit the bag. Spar a bit. Listen to what your sparring partners and an experienced trainer say.

      If you are hurting cats, then you are a puncher. if you have some speed with that, then you are a boxer-puncher.

      If you are really fast but have no power, there ya go. You are now paulie mali***gy.

      The point is, allow your skills and physical attributes to determine your style. Go in with an open mind.

        Wait. You will make too many bad habits. As Anton asid, you need to learn the basics first.

          first you learn the basics and usually your style will come naturally.. some people don't like to get hit so they naturally are defensive fighters, some are naturally offensive minded.
          Usually people fight the way they are most comfortable with..

            You just do your thang and sometimes ppl tell you what you should do. Its a take and try out sort of thing and if you don't like it throw it out.

              Like others have said in the thread.. don't expect to fight like Mike Tyson if you don't have the power and don't expect to fight like Mayweather if you don't have the reflexes and don't try to be Roy Jones if you don't have the speed.
