cuban style would be the perfect style if they are a lil more aggressive.. anyone know why cuban style is so defensive?? like they got the skills, the footwork, the hand speed, why are they so hesitant to throw and exchange? i feel like most of the time they are faster than their opponents and can land and get out before their opponent lands but instead, they choose to fight very defensive. and always moving.
The Cuban style, when it’s bad, is the worst in all of boxing

Cuban style is great at making both fighters look terrible. Definitely not friendly to fans who like to see serious leather getting traded. If you love hit but don't get hit, it's got plenty of value. I'd rather watch Inoue, Chocolatito, Bam Rodriguez, Lomachenko, etc personally. And it's really nice when they've got the power to stop their opponents. I think the world of Bivol and Usyk, but their lack of power in their current divisions takes a lot of the suspense and excitement out of the fight. Let's not even get into Shakur and Haney...
Although I actually like Rigo. Just wish he was a little more offensively minded. The current Cuban school as represented by guys like Morrell Jr, Andy Cruz, and Osley Iglesias is very fun to watch though.

Osleys is a hooker who loves his 2-3
Cuban David strikes straighter and is a 3-2 guy
Cuban style in pro boxing is still a work in progress. They're evolving Cuban style for the pros fighter by fighter
Erislandy is the most successful Cuban in pro boxing so far. He'll bite down on his mouthpiece and thug it out when pushed like Slique Black-American Boxers
Prior gen of Cubans were defensively minded. The pendulum has now swung to major offense Cubans with the current crop. Cuban David sent a past opponent into a coma
After experiencing both ends of the extreme I believe the next gen of Cubans will figure out the optimal blend between offense and defenseComment

Really wish we got to see Rigo fight all the guys in the division instead of everyone ducking him, and him having to go move up 2 divisions to fight peak Loma. Gamboa was always fun to watch though.Comment

But when it’s bad it’s horrid.
