Best inside fighter today!

[Frokid]

Okay so I was looking at the very first page of the thread yer and was thinking wtf these idiot are on about? cotto, jlc, hatton best fighters on the inside today? 2 of them are retired and the other a boxer/puncher...thats of course before i realised them posts were from 2006 lol.

[Tom Cruise]

Mayweather and Ward are on top right now imo.

Coming up though I like Mares and Broner as well. Both different styles of inside fighting but both very effective.

Also does anyone notice how calm, civil and logical the discussion was back in the day?

So true, not one expletive dropped. I mean when the first guy said cotto moved the same way tyson did I woulda lost it big time lol.

Anyway Mayweather, Ward in a league of their own Broner follows soon. Believe it or not though I'd actually say Timmy Bradley is up their too. Sure he got creamed over and over again on the inside by Ruslan but I think thats still mostly because he wanted to trade and prove he can punch hard on the inside. If he plays it smart on the inside though, he is lethal.

Its almost like you are allowed to have opinions on a fighter without being labelled a 'fanboy' or a 'hater'. Whoulda thunk?

Woah. A thread from 06'.

I was wondering people were picking Cotto, and Castillo.

[Chris Collins]

Andre Ward

[puga]

rios and mathysse

and lamont petersen is better inside fighter than floyd imo...floyd's got good defense on the inside ( as anywhere) but he's pretty much a one handed fighter on the inside with other hand constantly on the defense..

Andre Ward no doubt, tested against tough competition and came out successful.

Rios and Mattysse are on the come up tho.

Revisiting this thread...Anyway, Broner comes to mind.

GGG with his body punch combos is very good IMO.
