    Mexican style means balls = fighters who fight with balls is the reason boxing is alive.

    A bunch of safety first fighters will kill the sport.
    Santa Cruz fought a dumb fight, I'd rather had seen him fight smart and make adjustments rather than use the same failed tactics all night.

          If that was the case it would be GGG, Kovalev, Santa-Cruz etc pulling in millions of viewers on ppv, not the likes of Floyd.

            But they do pull in viewers, even if it's not on PPV. So wtf are you yapping about? So if that's the case, why doesn't Lara, Rigo, and Ward have a big following? People don't even know who they are. LOL. Sweet science, doe.

                    If this isn't a bait thread then you're more of an idiot than I suspected.

                    "Mexican style" is just a term, essentially means being a warrior in the ring, it isn't literally a style of fighting you dolt. Plus, LSC isn't that great of a fighter, comes forward with his high volume of arm punching without much of anything else. Not the best example to use.

                      Er you said "mexican style saves boxing" and yet the man who makes the most money and pulls in the most viewers DOESN'T employ that style...therefore your statement was bullsh/t!!...that's what I'm saying .
