      Did Tyson not base his style on Dempseys and said he wanted to fight just like him?

          Vitali - Canzoneri is a great example

          not sure about Toney - Walcott though (both counterpunchers, but not really that similar otherwise)

              Glad you think it's a good comparison, I think they fight almost identical but nobody else seems to mention them when talking about similar styles.

              Toney took a lot from Walcott and it really shows in some fights.

                    nah, I dont think Cotto and Gomez fought alike at all. Gomez actually fought a bit like Duran, keeping his right arm always up on the side of his chin with his left arm a little more loose.
                    Cotto reminds me much more of Jose Torres, a light heavyweight that used a much more similar temple-type of guard.

                    Tyson was much more like Patterson as well, not surprising since they both learned from the same guy.

                    I dont really know where you got the Moore and Berto comparison from, lol
