    Until you find a skilled fighter with a longer reach than you.

Mayweather got alot of rounds for doing literally nothing. Throwing maybe 25 punches a round. That is weak. Yet he is Floyd so, you have to beat the champ decisively.
      He usually manages to outland his opponents in the meanwhile and fights when he wants.

      Ring generalship is more than applying pressure.

Rigo and Lara rely so much on counterpunching that I consider them to fall into the OP's "defensive counterpuncher" category. I don't consider Lomo to be a pure boxer. He's pretty diverse. I've seen him pressure and swarm. He has very good speed and skills. I consider Vasyl more of a boxer-puncher. I really like watching him fight.
          Depends on the fight. He fought like a boxer puncher against Salido but was more of a boxer against Martinez.

            Agreed. I said as much in my post.
