Boxing styles you hate

[Cleto_Reyes]

I hate too much holding and running. i like clean fight were two fighter dont need the refs to break them up every 3 secs. i like a fight where 2 fighter come to fight

[GrandpaBernard]

punchers who frequently struggle to hit moving targets

these fighters are always ignorantly excused for their incompetence

[GrandpaBernard]

Sergio Mora

[atom-ictortilla]

I would say those who hit and clinch right away. While i dislike when guys "run" around the ring like Lara did vs Canelo I do think boxers need to be able to adapt to their opponents. Cutting of the ring is something very few boxers do well at this moment.

guys who clinch a lot but rarely land a clean shot

Joshua Clottey
Ishe Smith

[GrandpaBernard]

fighters who play it safe at the expense fighting to win

[SilverMiles]

how come no one mentioned fighters with no defense? that dont move their head at all and just be there waiting to get hit in exchange for one good punch like mayorga, thats just a plain ****** style in my book .

You have to use what you got. Mayorga had to things power and unpredictability.

He was so freaking slow I doubt head movement would have done much for him, he might as well conserve that energy to land big shots from odd angles.

watching guys like margarito makes me say a small number of fighters out there make it a point to get hit

I don't mind a particular style and I like seeing styles clash.

However I really dislike fighters who seem to put more effort into dressing "flashy" and doing "antics" than they put into making the fight actually memorable from a boxing perspective.

Paulie and Broner was one of those fights I hoped would end in a double knockout. Those guys are both an eyeroll a minute.
