    1)The Pure Boxer - Rigo
    2)The Slick Boxer - Andre ward
    3)The Boxer-Puncher - Keith Thurman
    4)The Slugger- Marcos maidana
    5)The Swarmer Fighter - Ggg
    6)The Unorthodox Boxer - Danny Garcia
    7)The Defensive Master Boxer - mayweather
    8)The KO Artist - KOvalev
    9)The Body Snatcher- cotto
    10)The Counter-Puncher- JMM

    This is a tough challenge because of the similarities of all the types. For example mayweather could easily be three or four of those same with GGG my list isn't the best at each skill necessarily I tried to use fighters that are relevant in today's fight game and by know means is this the best list. I simply put the first fighter who popped in my head when I read the category.

        Golovkin isn't a swarmer, at the moment he's fighting like a slugger, but could also be in the body snatcher category over Cotto.

        Best Swarmer right now is either Maidana or Porter.

              Ill do an all time List

              1) Pure boxer: Floyd Mayweather
              2) Slick slippery boxer: Pernell Whitaker
              3) Boxer puncher: Sugar Ray Leonard
              4) Slugger: Marvin Hagler could slug but wasnt only a slugger, JCC is a great slugger too.
              5) Swarmer: Roberto Duran
              6) Unorthodox: Michael Spunks
              7) Defensive Master : Floyd Mayweather, Pernell was maybe a bit slicker but Mayweather's defense is far better cuz if his ability not only to slip, but also to roll, duck, move and pivot.
              8) The KO artist: Prime George Foreman and Mike Tyson is a close second, I chose Foreman cuz he KOed better opponents than Tyson
              9) Body snatcher: Chavez, Cotto and Mike McCallum
              10 Counter Puncher : hard to pick cuz I always thought it was Marquez but Floyd Mayweather thoroughly beat him at his own game when they fought so I gotta go again with Mayweather, i just never saw too many counterpunchers, GGG is also a good come forward Counter puncher but he's still not proven.
