    Big hearted fighters vs Gutty fighters - who do you like the most?

    The big hearted likes to square up to the opponent and trade punches: big hearted fighters are spectacular and dramatic, but they dont't hit so hard and take more punishment than they actually can/deserve, since rely more on their own pride than on technical skills.
    Gutty fighters usually just don't give a fùck about political correctness, they are not interested in entertaining the crowd but in damaging the opponent and usually develop fine technical skills.

    Some examples of the two kinds of boxers.

    Big hearted fighters:
    Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali, Vitali Klitschko, Arturo Gatti, Rocky Marciano, Vito Antuofermo, Sugar Ray Leonard, Julio Cesar Chavez, Manny Pacquiao...

    Gutty fighters:
    Roberto Duran, Carlos Monzon, Floyd Mayweather jr., Sonny Liston, Ernie Shavers, George Foreman, Sugar Ray Robinson, Tommy Hearns, Wladimir Klitschko, Kostya Tzyu...

      Maybe by "gutty" you mean gutsy. Anyway they both mean the same thing to me. Nothingto do with style only bravery under fire.

        Big hearted.
        Khan is gutty he never squares up, never trades shots, but he also runs a lot In fact I don't like Khan one bit, cos he runs too much. In my book the Maidana fight was a draw... Khan is fast and technical, but he should move more on his trunk and less on his feet... Always IMHO.

        P.S. gutty fighter vs proud fighter=always a great fight.

          n pl -ties Irish dialect
          1. an urchin or delinquent
          2. a low-class person

          gutsy [ˈgʌtsɪ]
          adj gutsier, gutsiest Slang
          1. gluttonous; greedy
          2. full of courage, determination, or boldness

              Khan made more points, but Maidana threw the best shots and made pizza face out of Khan. If you see Maidana's face after the fight, it was clean as a baby's. But then again, beauty doesn't win. That's why Khan actually won that fight. But Maidana won 5 rounds out of 12, and it was a close decision anyway, you must admit that.

                Oh, and Khan also turned away from Maidana in round 10. That was worth a penalty.
