    Defensive fighters appreciation thread

    I love watching classy defensive fighters, guys like sweet pea, floyd, toney, hopkins, winky, it just really empitomises boxing for me, i mean we all love a good brawl but at the end of the day great defence and tactics is what separates boxing from a streetfight

    so anyways name your favourite defensive fighter in here and post up some vids if you wish

              5 Paul Williams !!!

              I know you are not being serious? I can recall moments in all his biggest fights where he has been clocked good and proper. Marg/Quintana. Even Phillips.

                    if all fans were all like u man? boxing will be in a really bad shape in an economic standpoint...

                    who would want to watch winky, hopkins, floyd and whitaker fight against each other? only the most hardcore fans of the sweet science maybe... it would be boring to any casual fan IMO...

                    look at the buys of the hopkins-calzaghe fight... look at the box office appeal of mayweather pre-oscar...

                    sweet science as it may it be, but boxing is also a bloodsport...
