is the peekaboo style taking over

[realheavyhands]

it seems to me like the techinical peekaboo style is taking over. fighter like winky wright ,glenn johnson, ike quartey, ali late in his career, tyson early in his career, joshua clottey, and maywether was getting killed by judah till he started walking him down ,

Worst, most pu$$y style in boxing. Brawling matches are the most exciting, the fights that make boxing what it is (or was). Now a lot of boxers are punks and run around the ring the whole while they hit their oppenent ten times a round then run. Those boxers are straight punks. Just like Floyd Mayweather.

No you clearly do not know what peekaboo is. You are completely talking out of your ass. Look at all of the fighters that the author of this thread named as examples. Not a single one of them run.

There is a difference between a peekaboo style and simple keeping your hands up. In a peekaboo style the hands are turned inwards against the cheekbones at all times, with the eyes peering above the hands to see the opponent. There is also a lot of head movement involved. Winky Wright is not someone who I would consider to be a peekaboo fighter.

Tyson and Hatton both use the style and I wouldn't call them runners.

But they stand and brawl. And they're not the most defensive fighters either so they are hardly using the peekaboo style, if anything.

Dude brawling can be a bit primitive/******ed at times. It's not about taking turns hitting each other...it's about hit and don't get hit. What's wrong with the Apollo Creed style? or Sugar Ray VS Duran?

You obviously don't know what the peek-a-boo style is if you say Tyson and Hatton hardly use the style.

Tyson pretty much made the style famous.
