Do fans discrimate against pure boxers? and over raise punchers ....

[Walterson]

Shouldn't fighters that lack KO power but still win get appreciated more.

What do you think?

I agree, Anselmo Moreno should get way more attention. The most underrated fighter in all of boxing.

First time I've heard about this guy. What weight division?

He is in the most talented, deepest, best division in all of boxing.

He is a poor man version of Whitaker(no diss) not much pop but damn impressive skills.

People want action and drama when they see fights...not wankers who talk a lot but provide little excitement.

Just watched him in action, and yeah .. he does remind me of Pernell in a way.

It's a shame boxers like him don't get exposure! - Look at Calderon, already forgotten.

I've always liked the combination of boxing skills and KO power: Pacquiao, Bute, JM Marquez, Marciano, the Klitschkos, etc.

I'm not as much of a fan of "pure boxers" without much power, such as Zbik, Malignaggi, Nuzhnenko, Ottke, Spinks, Mayweather and Dawson, but I do enjoy watching when they put on a show and really school their opponents.

And I'm usually not a big fan of less-skilled brawling pressure fighters: Gatti, Katsidis, Andrade, De Leon, Juarez.

Thanks for the post. Do you think pure boxers should get more respect then they're getting because of this?

[TOBYLEE1]

I would say yes, less savy fans will call them runners. Those guys master the art of hitting without getting hit. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy a slug fest but do like the technical fighters

[FeFist]

I don't understand people *****ing about them running to be honest. It's not their fault if the opposition lack the skill to cut off the ring.

I wouldn't say pure boxers are underrated they are just disrespected.
