what type of boxer would you describe yourself as?

[kbpoetree]

well i'm 5'11" and fight at 140 so i def like to use my jab...i'm a fighter whom likes to control the action w my jab double jab and my triple jab even tho it sucks still right now and i may never really use it but mayb...I've been blessed with the ability to fight well backing up..so i dont mind being chased around the ring...i do however start to lose controll wich leaves me breathless and to the point of puking when i'm being pressured more than i like...need to fix that and relax more...i dont mind taken a punch but i'm one who wants to miss all of em so therefore often i find myself moving too much..but all in all my coach calls me a "counter skill boxer"

Well I'm a skinny tall southpaw. I jab and jab and oh, jab, stay on the outside, use my reach, go for the head, land bodyshots harder due to height (ussualy spar smaller guys). Don't like to let go too much, I ussualy go for 3 to 4 punch combos when on the ofensive and back off. Decent defence, or so I hope, I try to evade more than to block.

I have great handspeed, footwork and head movements. I lack boxing IQ and experience though. I'm a slick skilled boxer but i brawl it out everytime i get hit hard.
I need to sparr more and improve on my (overrated) pure boxing ability.

Switch hitter and Ambidextrous. So I have different styles on each side.

Orthodox, I am more of a boxer, I think. I have speed but I like to sit on punches and **** on this side. I don't really know what to call it so I would say Nonito-like, if you were to imagine it. But my left hook isn't much. Surprising because it was one of the first punches I learned. I kinda head hunt too but I make it a chore to focus on mixing high and low, specially the left hook to the body but it just isn't fluid enough. So I dislike my left hook. I use the right straight alot too, trying to break that habit but it's my strong punch on the orthodox side.

Southpaw, I use my speed and reflexes alot on this side. Like before I don't really know how to describe it but think Hozumi if you were to imagine it. I use every punch on this side. I hate my left straight but its only because I don't think I snap it like I do my right straight. It just doesn't feel the same, ya know? I check hook alot on this side too, when I get comfortable and have someone willing to come straight forward. Haven't really gotten the fluidity down on the orthodox side for that punch yet though. I literally use every punch on this side, so I don't know what to point out about it.

Overall(both sides), I always jab. Always. Whether I am trying to hit or just pawing. I always jab, both sides. I use multi jabs too, not just one shot but double and sometimes triple. Use it to get range, keep someone back, or just as a blinder. I use alot of head movement and constantly circling. I don't move straight back, I move back and to the side. I am a thinker and always thinking about my head's positioning after or before a punch. So i lean out the way sometimes after extending my arm and connecting, even if I miss too. I hate thinking about the orthodox side though because I feel like my head is always in position for a right straight. Footwork is about even on both sides but I sit down more on the orthodox side.

I don't uppercut. I do it at an angle. I actually got it from watching Donovan Ruddock, but ODLH does something similar he calls it a 45. Bernard Hopkins actually taught me how to punch correctly when I was younger so I really hate my left hook because thats who the hell taught me it.

tyson type of fighter

i like to bob and weave and explode with my left hooks, as i am fairly short

i like to put the hurting on a motha****a

[Marlin26]

I am deffintly a pressure fighter, I love coming forward even if i have to take three punches to land one. Body shots are my favorite and cornering someone is a strategy I employ the most. However I am more than willing to trade with you in the center of the ring, no matter your size, punching power, speed, versitility I'll go toe to toe if you'd like. I like having a strong left hand and the left hook is my favorite punch.

I've been compared to Julio Cesar Chavez becuase of my style and my ability to take a punch but i know im nowhere close to his level

Counter, boxer-puncher.

[hateinyaeyes32]

Nice.... I like all of these replies, to describe myself I'd say that im a big puncher, but i need to work on my speed of my punches, so I wouldnt call myself a boxer-puncher just yet, and I really like to and seem to have a nack for countering on the inside and slipping alot of punches, and when cornering ppl i like to work the body and give them no room to move. So throw all of that in one and I call myself an aggressive inside- counter-puncher
