                  Pure boxers are boxers who don't rely on one single defining attribute for success, they can mix it up, counter punch, they are fundamentally sound, and good defensively.

                  A good example is DLH vs Sweet Pea. Two fighters who are very well rounded and don't have glaring holes in their styles and approach, yet they also have different styles offensively and defensively.

                  Pure boxers definitely don't have to be defense first fighters, those are just the pure boxers that stand out to casuals more obviously because they don't know any better.

                    Would you classify Kovalev as a pure boxer?
