    Pure Boxers have an edge in versatility.

    They better at fighting inside than swarmers are on the outside.

      No. Boxing is partly the art of throwing hard, fast, accurate punches capable of hurting opponents and knocking them out. The most skilled fighters of all are not only skilled on defense and scoring points. They also have the skill of delivering very hard blows on target. Without this skill they can't be the very best a boxer can be. Ray Robinson, Ray Leonard, Joe Louis, Jack Johnson, Hagler, Monzon, Duran, Chavez, Roy Jones and so many more wouldn't be nearly as good if they didn't have their two handed punching power.

        no, because the pure boxer, when the situation turns to ****, aren't usually able to cope all that well.

        Marcos Maidana, Orlando Salido, Emmanuel Augusus, Ruslan Provodnikov, and a host of other scrappers show up, do everything incorrectly, and give pure boxers utter hell (knocking off the ones without that bit of scrapper in them).

            Winning using any style takes skills, skills is not about wat style u use, it's about making that style work for u against all other styles at the highest level
