    being labeled "BORING" is a badge of honor especially on this forum and from casual fans

    what makes me laugh is how most of the fighters who are LABELED "BORING" DOMINATES MOST THE P4P Rankings (Chad Dawson, Andre Ward, Floyd Mayweather, JMM, Bradley, Chemito Moreno, Klitschko's) and the fighters considered "EXCITING" are not even "RANKED"

    where are all the fighters that are considered "EXCITING" on the P4P Rankings? other then Pacquiao and Donaire I guess...

    Not only that but all the fighters that are considered "BORING" would BOX CIRCLES around those "EXCITING FIGHTERS" EASILY!

    So give me SKILLED AND BORING over EXCITING AND NO/AVERAGE SKILLS Any Day! While you and your Exciting Style will be good until you reach your 30's, by the time I hit 30 I will still be in my PRIME

      Thing with guys like chambers and jennings is that its pretty obvious that they physically cant be killers.

      THey naturally dont have power so they go about winning the best way they can

        the amjority of american fighters might be boxers but there are lots of brawlers and punchers out there too. boxers arent boring either, how can you call yourself a boxing fan and not like boxing?
        Boxer-punchers, yes, who doesn't like a boxer-puncher?

        But pure boxers like Cory Spinks, I don't think anyone outside of St. Louis likes him.

              Are we talking all American Boxers or just the HW boxers??? If it's all American boxers, you couldn't be more wrong. But if it's HW's, I'd have to agree.

                this mentality hurts when they are able to get away with taking the least amount of risks
