This thread only proves I'm dealing with fragile minds. U kids dont know **** about boxing or higher order thinking, u cant grasp that most of our boxing terminology is theoretical not empirical.

Ok then I think Yuri Foreman is a slugger because my definition of a slugger is someone with great footwork.

So how long do u think the classification boxer-puncher has been around, its some relatively new ish. Do u any of u even stop to think how silly the term boxer-puncher is? Aren't all boxers punchers?

Yeah I know the title comes as a shock to know one, the sport is called boxing and being pure at it is a good thing. There are many fans these days and on these boards though who rag on about how this guy is boring, or this "certain" style is dull and boxing is dying cause it needs more excitement.

The reality is that sluggers have never dominated boxing, they have never been the life blood of boxing, they are never the biggest money makers in boxing or even the most popular. Lets start at

Sugar Ray Robinson...sure he could trade if need be, but for the most part he was a pure boxer. Also he was the most popular, made the most money, carried the sport during his time etc...

Muhammad Ali...another pure boxer, The Greatest, Biggest name in the sport, makes the most money, draws the biggest crowds, stirs the most excitement.

Sugar Ray Leonard...Another pure boxer, like Robinson he can **** if need be to but again a pure boxer dominates the sport, makes the most money, draws the biggest crowds, stirs the most debate.

Oscar De La Hoya/Roy Jones Jr....What do we have here more boxers??? Yeah they can punch but they ruled with their boxing skills, oh yeah they were the most popular, made the most money, drew the most excitement etc....

Floyd Mayweather...The sport revolves around him, lets be real, biggest PPV attraction, stirs the most debate, he is the center of the boxing world is he not?


Now before I make my final point I will agree that there are sometimes anomalies like Mike Tyson a slugger who rose to the top of the sport in money, popularity, and in ring actioni. But often the Job of selling a fight is often left to the Pure Boxers.

Here is the difference: Pure Boxers are generally confident in their ability, they have big mouths and are willing to back up what they say. Why cause they know they got the skills to pay the bills.

Sluggers are generally the quiet types, unable to draw huge crowds or light up the boxing world with their tongues. They have a let their fist do the talking mentality. T

No smoking,no Pacquiao!he is nasty!

In closing lets just say, I know what style historically dominates this sport, and you lil ******s do to, in case u dont know your going 2 that style once again on Nov 13. A pure boxer will dominate.

Well my definition of boxer-puncher has been around since 1981, the same year the DeLorean DMC-12 came out. Coincidence, I think not.

Now that you mention it, isn't the term pure boxer a silly term, don't all fighters in this sport perform boxing techniques?
