    i'm guessing he has "not studied the klitschkos do to a lack of exposure and perhaps fighting in such a heavy weight class is part of the problem".

      I agree actually, Larry Holmes, Lennox Lewis, the Klits, they all have a dominant pure boxing style. Not surprising they dominated their era's.

          I think you got yourself into needless arguments by using the phrase "pure boxers" I think if you said "An abundance of boxing ability" it would have gotten you a bit farther without the aguments.

            Pure boxers, just like I said, if the haters want to try to bend and mend "what is pure" to their childish agenda's then great.

              ALWAY HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL!

              Showtimes Super Six is proving that, Sluggers and guys with Knockout power are exciting to watch but when they run into a guy with good Boxing Skills and can do a little bit of everything they usually get exposed, it is hard to Knockout something that is CONSTANTLY moving, then they get frustrated when they can't land Power Punches like Froch and Abraham did against Dirrell

              I would take a Pure Boxer over a Slugger ANY DAY!


              by the way Understand what a Pure Boxer is, Pure Boxers are guys that can do a little bit of everything, they are not one-dimensional they don't just depend on one like "Power", they give you a little bit of everything, Offensive, Defense, Head Movement, Footwork, can make adjustments during a fight, uses Jabs and Combos to break their opponent down, they don't have to just wait for that one punch to try and end the fight

              clearly a lot of guys on this board don't understand the difference between a Pure Boxer and a Brawler or a Slugger, especially people who keep bringing up the Kiltchko's, the Klitchko's have BOXING SKILLS, they can either KO you or Vitali can stay outside and let you run into his Jab all night like he did against Chris Arreola, so yes it is guys with Power who also have Boxing Skills the Klitchko's have BOXING SKILLS and Power, Pacman has SOME boxing skills and Power, Frazier had Boxing Skills and Power, Ali had Boxing Skills and Power just to name a few, Lennox had Boxing Skills and Power just to name a few

                    You're clearly missing the definition of pure:

                    Pure
                    Separate from all heterogeneous or extraneous matter; free from mixture or combination; clean; mere; simple; unmixed; as, pure water; pure clay; pure air; pure compassion.
                    http://www.brainyquote.com/words/pu/pure208530.html

                    Mixing "pure" with "can do a little bit of everything" would be a contradiction.

                      Sugar Ray Robinson was a pure boxer? He stood flat footed right in front of you and tried to rip your head off. He fought more like Shane Mosley than Floyd Mayweather Jr.
