That Georgian who ironed out Tommy Langford was very heavily muscled I thought. Short as anything but kept coming with good stamina.

A fast footed but slow handed fighter
An exceptionally tall and skinny non-HW with an iron chin
An arm punching/slapping huge puncher
A featherfisted dude scoring a brutal KO (wins over KO prone journeymen excluded)
A heavily muscled dude with excellent stamina
A Japanese or Mexican fighter with no heart (no Mexi-Americans...too pampered lol)
A world class Korean who wasn't a face first slugger
Muscled with good stamina Id say Joe joyce.

I always thought Mark Breland was a bit of an arm puncher with a big punch.
If you compare his style to Thomas Hearns when both welters, Hearns seems to get his body behind those hooks and right hands, Breland seems to get good power from his shoulders , not swivelling his body into the shots. Obviously I may be talking bollocks as well

Vinny Paz had faster feet than his hands as well.

Your knowledge of the Asian game is unparalleled mate, love itBoxing Prospect wrote: ↑08 May 2020, 15:02The two possible ones there were both pretty face first (Yuh and Chang both racked up a load of defenses at 108)... Neither were slugger I guess but very much "in your face" fighters. Chang the more polished of the two
.. But Chan Hee Park was a talented boxer mover, out boxed Canto

Feather fisted ko, didn't Carlos Cuenca knock someone cold when he had around 45 fights with zero knockouts?
Holyfield was heavily muscled with top stamina.

Joe Joyce seems like a good example. He's agile and light on his feet for a guy of his size/build but really slow hands.Shhhh wrote: ↑08 May 2020, 15:29Can think of other way round (say Andy Ruiz) but can’t think of that one.... does it exist?margaret thatcher wrote: ↑08 May 2020, 01:15 AKA exceptions to the norm

There was a Korean in the 1980s (Yong Kang Kim) who gave a brilliant boxing display to dethrone Thai flyweight legend Sot Chitalada for the WBC title and he looked assured for a long reign, racking up a couple of successful defences before the amazing Chitalada beat him in a rematch.

He was the one I had in mind but because his hands are so slow you kinda feel obliged to lump him as just a generic slow guy overall rather than acknowledge that his feet actually aren’t slow.
