    Besides, "hit and not get hit" is not what boxing is about. Boxing is about winning, fighting to your strength and making your opponent adjust to your style. I'm not saying their is anything wrong with the hit and not get hit approach, I'm saying its not the only style that wins, and that has been proven every year that boxing has existed.

    Maybe you and all the other crybabies about boxing being hit and not get hit, should go watch fencing. We're trying to watch a fight here.
    If a fighter is a good brawler then go ahead, I never asked anyone to brawl and I myself am a technical fighter who can brawl but the point is you shouldn't call a fighter boring. Go watch mma if you dont want to watch art.

      I have collecting data that supports my hypothesis that male fans that like boring technical fighters are more feminine and like stuff like poetry and dance.

      Ruslan does poetry, now name one person more masculine than Provodnikov?

              There is a strong correlation between "fans" that call fighters boring and a lack of boxing experience. I've noticed that the fans which call fighters boring tend to have never laced a pair before don't know what it feels like commiting to a punch and getting countered and as a result expect every fighter to brawl. Boxing is a tactical game and an art and you should fight to your advantages i.e Malignaggi and Algieri should not start slugging. And all boxing needs to embrace what boxing is (hit and dont get hit) and should stop calling it boring or watch another sport.
              First I would like to say I have mad respect for fighters like Paulie and Algieri, their both prime examples of what fighters should be.

              But boxing isn't about "Hitting and not getting hit" that's a common phrase use by boxing fans who want pretend they know more than their fellow fan.

              The Art of Boxing or The Sweet Science of Bruising is hurting your opponent more than they hurt you. It's the simplest explanation there is. If Fighter A has to take a punch from Fighter B in order to get off a harder shot of his own then so be it, but if you can land a hard punch without getting hit than that's good as well.

              Your definition shows no respect to fighters like Marquez, Rios, GGG, Duran, Chavez SR, and so many other great champions.
