What is your Region's/Country's Style?

[thatjamaicanguy]

Countries and regions tend to produce a specific kind of style. Mexican boxers are tough, resilient body punchers, and love to trade. American East Coast boxers are point grabbers who love to box.

Boxers from the southwest tend to have traits of the mexican style where they like to body punch. English boxers have that distinct upright style.

I want to know if you guys have a style developed from a certain region, and the region's circumstances. And i want to know if you have any distinct style of a region or country.

Some of that can be true to an extent, but a lot of it is crap. Ricky Hatton fights in a distinct upright style does he?

yea it's true there are exceptions, but generalizations are generalizations

I used to work out at the same gym that the Andrade bros did; I've heard that Mosley and JCC have trained there before for some fights


I'll let you guess, the style

what does europen style of boxing mean???

[Eric Holder]

what does europen style of boxing mean???

the stereotype is upright, stiff, very technical/fundamental, and robotic like Sturm, Kessler, Wlad


obviously there's plenty of exceptions to the stereotypes for every style(Joe Calzaghe and Vitali come to mind)

[Sir Tom Jones]

Well I am from the same town as Calzaghe and same village as Cleverly both decent boxers.

Emphasis based on speed and workrate not power i guess.

Calzaghe does throw a great volume of punches, his handspeed is good too.

i was wondering if Asian boxers have a defining style. Can anyone enlighten me?

The pacoima california style would be boxer/punchers/brawler.
