    Who's style/stance do you like most?

    It doesn't matter if the fighter is good or not but what style/stance of fighting do you like the most out of all fighters?

    For me it's a toss up between Marquez and Cotto but if I had a gun put to the head, I'd go with Marquez. Love his aggressive yet choreographed style, those combinations are just beautiful... plus his stance is pretty active and intimidating.

    What about you?

      Morales and Juan Manuel Marquez, I like their stance very much. It looks fluid. Morales is more liquid while Marquez is like a ticking clock which in its own way is kind of fluid as well.

      Also, I have to give it to Brandon Rios. He has a very solid foundation and his stance looks like a wall of muscle. So, having said all those things he has skills and techniques especially inside fighting. Miguel Acosta has the right strategy in the beginning of their fight which was fight outside but Rios just followed and cornered him.

      Ivan Calderon regardless of the fact I criticize him for his lack of power. He still has a very slimy stance which means you know what to expect from him. He will try to dodge your attack and take potshots at you. Very slimy and sometimes difficult to catch. Even though Segura caught him, he still has a good stance. I have to say Miguel Acosta too for that matter. I like his stance too although he is more of a boxer-puncher because he did knockout Urbano Antillon as well.

          Currently, I'd probably say Sergio Martinez.

                Just wondering why you guys like the Cotto stance. He squared, stooped over too much, and held the hands too high causing him to have bad balance, be open for uppercuts, and presented himself as a bigger target.

                  I like the stance Slick Black American fighters use with the lead hand low. It forces their opponents to be worried about being attacked from an upwards and downwards angle.
