I wouldn't call him that at all. He can counter, fight off the jab, and use educated pressure. Very underrated fighter. A slugger is more like Lemieux.
I agree. He is technical. But he can slug it
Bit like GGG?

How would you classify him?

Boxer puncher?

Swarmer?

Kudryashov is pure slugger. The guy can't box at all, he just walks and throws monstrous punches.

The definition of a slugger of recent times is Avtandil Khurtsidze. How's he getting on? Last I heard he had been charged for something Mafia related.

He outboxed Frampton by taking a step back and jabbing-countering I thought, certainly not the tactics of a pure slugger
