Are you a big puncher? Or how about a runner? Do you like to mix it up on the inside at close quarters? Or do you like to stay back and keep opponents at bay with your jab/cross combinations? In fighter? Out fighter? Brawler? Counterpuncher? Boxer? Boxer-puncher? Or is it something else? Which one are you?

ideally i like taking them all except the brawler (just because its not my preference lol), throw them in a blender and call it mine. Floyd jrs Counter-punching, inside fighting; Sweet pea's defense; tyson's explosiveness, head movement, mid and inside fighting; ali's footwork, and all of rjjs and sugar ray leonard.
i like how when floyd goes on the offense, he really goes on the offense like in the ndou fight but then can fight on the inside and counter punch as well. having the flexibility and the tools to go where you want to dictate the fight as well as be ready to go where ever your opponent thinks he can dictate the fight because one of the worst things to overcome is when your opponent is willing take the fight to your strengths and completely negates it. It would take a real champion to not break and to adjust and come back with a counter strategy.
just my 2 cents

I'd describe my self as more of James Toney stylistically when I'm straight up boxing at mid-range to long-range, pick my shots, stay defensive, left hand low, shoulder up protecting my chin. If I become aggressive and offensive, I like to think that I attack like Benn and Frazier (depending on the situation) sort of way as far as what punches I throw, the angles, and how I throw them. If I'm having trouble with size or a jab, I'll use a lot of bobbing to get to my opponent to set a left hook up, and my combination's and offense of attack if my opponent is trading or standing in front of me would more or less resemble the way Benn did it. I have a lot of trouble with speed, jabs, and southpaws and tend to shell up to much though, and a lot of the time I'll take unnecessary punches.
