Depends what you like to watch really...
Everybody loves to see a war..
But i also love to see a great boxer go to work.. Bhop is in such great shape the whole time that he never needed to go looking for a ko cos he could do what he does all night and it shows down the long run..
Malignaggi fights..Alot of people diss paulie for not bieng a power puncher..
Im a big fan .. Good boxer very speedy.. A real character in and out the ring..
I think its mostly his opponents faults that his fights arent as exciting as others cos we know paulie can fight..And is there to fight.. Look at the cotto bout.. real entertaining cos cotto came to fight and is a great fighter.. However cherry couldnt do enough to snap out of bieng outboxed and just didnt make a fight of it..
Also many close fights are not so much underrated but unnapreciated ..
For instance Collazo - Hatton ..
I thought it was a real good quality fight thatwas overshadowed by a close decision and nobody tends to comment on how good the fight was..
Peace
I love watching alllllll types of fights,it does not necessarily have to be war.and I agree,B Hop is very very good to watch especially earlier in his career when he had a different nickname(I can't remember it though) and he used to just tear through opponents.
Totally agree bro...
Back in the early days there was just no competition for a vicious bernard hopkins..
His boxing skill and defensive skill was very polished very early in his career..
I think thats why people felt he was boring in the verybig fights.. Because during the fights with lesser fighters he could tear through them and do as he pleased whilst he has never been stupid and uses his defence to the max in the superfights where it was all on the line..
I jus dug this out as an example of early Executioner ;) :)
Hopkins - stokes
