Post three flaws of your favourite boxers in the ring

[blowblow]

Floyd’s fragile hands shaped him as a boxer

Rarely hurt opponents couldn’t risk injuring his hands

Low action fighter done to preserve his hands

Who would have thought one the best boxers ever has glass hands

why not if you have money? there are lots of cheap stuffs to buy like the judges.

Juan Manuel Marquez
1. Despite his immense skills, could leave himself open during exchanges. This left him susceptible to flash knockdowns
2. Struggled to cut off the ring and find a rhythm against quick defensive fighters
3. Didn't always fight consistently for the full 12 rounds. Some fights he struggled in the early rounds (pac 1, Diaz 1) other times he seemingly gave away the last few rounds (pac 3, Chris john)

My 3 favorite fighters right now are Spence, Inoue and Bivol and they have no big flaws I am aware of and that is part of why they are my favorite fighters.

Bivol is one of my favourites

I wouldn’t say it’s a flaw but I think he has the ability to stop fighters, we’ve seen it but is happy to coast to a decision and get a win, but that may also be because he looks like he could probably make 168 easily , he looks small at 175, so maybe he’s just not taking risks if he doesn’t need to.

As I say, it’s not a flaw, probably just smart boxing. Just sometimes when I’m watching him, I always want him to go through the gears, because he always looks like he can if he chooses, but he’s happy to coast.

Let me go first:

Anthony Joshua

You missed quitter off your list

I’d say spitting out your gum shield and waiting to be waved off should be near the top of the list.

Cotto:
-always threw the left jab to the left side of him, never straight.
-had a very weak chin
-had a tendancy to dance on his feet, taking off moments of pressure to mentally reset. I wouldn't be surprised if he ran miles backward in training, to get used to pressure fighters like Margarito.

Cotto did not have weak chin . Pac was the only time he was stopped legally.

I stand corrected, he just got buzzed a few times: Mayweather, Ricardo Torres. And Manny like you aforementioned.

Cotto durability issues

His face would swell and cut easily

Could fade in the final third of fights

Great chin not iron though

Calazaghi had similar problems, had true one punch power but spent most fights protecting his hands, he almost chucked the sport in before he started because of it.

Took his loss like a man, no excuses unlike others...
