Re: Mexican style boxing, European style boxing, etc.
Mexican style to me as far as overgeneralization goes is a high guard, nose down (as Amat said) pressing hard to get inside and work the body in the early rounds to wear down the opponent and going for the head with hooks and uppercuts later.
European style again in my view has a more upright stance and focuses more on straight shots, spending the early rounds finding range, and looking for openings in the defense of their opponents and then later going for adding crosses to the jab.
the lines of these definitions gets more and more blurred every year.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
