....isn't boxing about HITTING 1st and NOT GETTING HIT 2nd?

I like slick fighters....but I'm not wrong in wanting to see them FIGHT and not just run around like they are high on crack.
Exactly my point, you can't win rounds without landing punches, but watching those guys slip the punches leaves you with your mouth wide open, and those guys also have a bit of a vicious streak in them, they wanna put their hands on someone. Guzman and Barrera are probably my favourite fighters to watch outside of Hatton and Cotto cos they have a pefect mix of defense and offense, and it all just gels together. The results are breathtaking.
