What is the most effective style?

[BUNGALOWS]

if i could build a fighter it would be ray robinson. just under 6' at WW. long arms. great chin, great speed, and two handed knockout power.

he had no flaws.

Green K for this post.

Edit: Already gave you some green, future green k.

Floyd was scared to engage Marquez? When Marquez caught Mayweather with a good punch, Mayweather immediately put him on his ass. It was a one sided fight. Also could you do me the courtesy of using appropriate terms when paraphrasing me, I'm referring to your use of the word ''faced'' as a replacement for the word ''beat''.

style is all about where / under whom you learn to box, and your physical toolbox / talents.

a genuinely slow and uncoordinated guy with T rex arms will never be a great boxer. it's so much easier to box if you're fast that you'll never catch up. if he's got a great chin and lead in his gloves he can still be a viable commodity by applying pressure, and use whatever skills he has to be more effective in close where his arm length and lack of speed mean less.

similarly, i don't care how fast you are, if you've got a junk chin and you can't punch you have no business coming forward and trying to hurt people. use the ring.


the basic componentry of a boxer's talent are his chin, his punch, and his speed. you don't teach those things. they are developed, not taught.

if you're talking about an athlete the basic components are size/dimensions/strength, and speed, or what i call "fleetness." everything is a product of those two things. it's really all about speed.

for the time being i am not talking about dimensions, weight, or size. height and reach are obviously talent, as they aren't taught. boxing has weight classes, but life doesn't. obviously weight and size are an advantage there.

Another load of nonsense. I'm talking about Floyd, Pacquiao and Marquez. NO ONE ELSE. I don't care what the basic components are. It was a pretty simple question. If can't understand that then think of it like this: Imagine a Formula 1 race where all the cars are identical in every way. Then the only way to win would be driving skill. (you still following?) Now imagine Floyd , Manny and Marquez are them cars, who would win?

it's a ****** question, and a completely irrelevant question. read my post and learn something about the realities of boxing. you're talking about nonsense. your line of inquiry is similarly nonsense. this isn't a fantasy.

men are not cars. a man whose talents suit his style would win. there is no "better style."

you're probably just some 14 year old kid who wants to felate floyd mayweather. i really don't know why i waste so much time in NSB [or the lounge.]

Ok maybe afraid was the wrong word. Tentative is more accurate. And sorry for making that mistake with beat and faced it wasn't meant. Still the only style he hasn't beaten is Floyd's unless you think Chris John won that fight with Marquez

I'm, 19 and if you talked like that to my face I'd beat the piss out ye.

It's a novelty question. For a bit of fun. Theres no answer just an opinion. Now **** off your bitter old man. It's not my fault your life is ****.
