Ringside Magazine called Jeff Styers "a thinking man's fighter" because of his ablity to analyze a fight in realtime. Jeff "Sweet Ice" Styers was a true boxer, jabbing often and throwing combinations while rarely getting hit because of an exceptional defensive posture. Jeff was an exceptional counter puncher who recorded most of his knockouts through counter punching.
