    Good call. Two guys with degrees in the science right there. I still had Toney nicking first but its been awhile. Mccallum got him off the inside game a bit and Toney was loading up. Really good fights those, not talked about alot really.

    For me it's simply a matter of who is able to execute their plan better. A "boxer" needs to be effective much more often during the course of the round, whereas if a "slugger" lands a good few shots that noticably hurt the boxer they could steal it. It all comes down to who controls the fight. Coming foward by itself means nothing unless effective shots are accompanying it. Likewise a briliant defensive display by itself won't win a round for me, unless there are counters included. So applying this to the original question I don't prefer a boxer or a slugger as far winning rounds I prefer the one that executes their plan better.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    I feel Minter just out boxed him, one thing you can't take away from Minter he was a fine boxer,
    Hamsho on the other hand very tough and crude.?
