im curious, for those in the boxing community that follow mma, do they consider the diaz brothers to have good boxing? conor?

I like Cruz for a study. He isn't the best striker but he has a very, very interesting style to take things from. Also TJ

Aldo is a good one, partially because his style has really changed a lot over the years. He used to be a very aggressive kicker, not a pure MT guy by any means but closer to it than most MMA fighters. Over time his footwork has gotten much cleaner and he's come to rely mostly on his hands. Watch the Faber fight and then watch the 2nd Edgar fight to see what I mean. The man is just never out of position.

Except when he lost his mind and decided to run right at Conor. But god knows he paid for that mistake.

I'd have to go with Aldo, but I really like what Max Holloway is doing. Aldo is so efficient and so tactical. Holloway can do a little bit of everything and looks better and better every time he's out there.
