Pure Boxers Have Always Ruled Boxing

[Miburo]

Boxer/punchers have ruled boxing as they're the most rounded.

You're clearly missing the definition of pure:

Pure
Separate from all heterogeneous or extraneous matter; free from mixture or combination; clean; mere; simple; unmixed; as, pure water; pure clay; pure air; pure compassion.


Mixing "pure" with "can do a little bit of everything" would be a contradiction.

oh ok your right my fault

at the same time "Pure Boxers" are very rare in Boxing Today, sure it is some guys with SOME BOXING SKILLS but not many "PURE Boxers", also networks and Promoters seem to be going away from the PURE BOXERS and only focusing on promoting the guys with Power because they are more "exciting" to the Casual Boxing Fans

Thank you for seeing my point. that's exactly why this tread is popular. M.I.C. is unshaken in his definiton of "pure boxer" which contradicts with everyone else's. In a sense, that's admirable, sticking with your belief and protecting your thread. But, wrong is wrong and we can't help but point that out (often using very impolite language).

and yes, Pure boxers are very rare today. They tend to become more complete fighters either by need or the demand to be more exciting and draw more fans.

Unfortunately many of you think a pure boxer can only be a feather fisted mover with no power, no inside game, and no diversity, ala Calderon, sorry but thats not pure to me

well this one gonna funnier...............after MIC....trying to make a futile comeback.............gonna bookmark this ****.....LOL

Sugar Ray Robinson was a pure boxer? He stood flat footed right in front of you and tried to rip your head off. He fought more like Shane Mosley than Floyd Mayweather Jr.

According to MIC Shane Mosley is a pure boxer too.

So Calderon isn't a pure boxer now?

Unlike you, my definition of Pure boxing is not set in some cement classification, if you think about what you just wrote here then maybe finally you can understand why you are wrong. Again a pure boxer can do it all and transform if need be. Virtuoso is not a category in boxing, the guys I mentioned are trained in a pure boxing style and simply add their gifts to it. they are trained in the classic African American pure boxing style of fighting.

And also understand that my selected names are only the pure boxers who rise to the top of the sport, the biggest draws, the biggest names, etc...The whole point is how can you call this style of boxing boring or dull, when fighters trained in this style constantly become the top draw in the sport????

I do hope I have made my point clear for that last time.

Marco Antonio Barrera=Pure boxer by MIC logic

Yea Heeb somehow Calderon is not a pure boxer. But, to be fair to MIC until Saturday he didn't even know who Calderon was.
