Updated Jun 18, 2025 by Michael Llewellyn:In boxing, styles make fights and that’s no different for the boxing game Undisputed—some unique fighting styles are based on real-life fighters and eras. These styles cater to fighting preferences, from power-punching brawlers to technical masters in the ring. This list has been updated to include two additional fighting styles that work well in Undisputed.
8Saul Avlerez Canelo (Unique)
Great For Power Punching And Counters
Canelo is rightly viewed as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters today. He has incredible speed, power, and accuracy and is known for breaking down his opponent’s body. He’s good at pressing the action forward and countering with devasting hooks to the body and head.
Canelo is perfect for players who want to use a power puncher who can get inside and pressure their opponents. Using his stats as a base for a created fighter, he doesn’t need to over-commit to power punching because he can KO his opponents with regular and counter punches.
7Roy Jones Jr. (Unique)
A Fast Counter Puncher That’s Hard To Hit
Roy Jones Jr. was one of the most talented and dangerous fighters of all time. He possessed speed, power, and an awkward style that made him an enigma to most opponents. Jones could fight southpaw and orthodox and had knockout power in his hooks.
Jones has one of the hardest styles to master inUndisputedbut is a nightmare for most opponents because of his ability to land counter-hooks to the head and body. If players seek a style that combines the Philly Shell with Muhammad Ali’s speed, they should consider Roy Jones Jr. With practice, he is one of the best characters in the game. Jones' biggest flaw is that he telegraphs his hooks making him easier to counter.
6Joe Frazier (Unique)
A Perfect Swarmer Style
Joe Frazier’s fighting style is one of the most distinct in the game. His bob-and-weave style can make him a difficult target for taller opponents and he’s great for getting underneath his opponent’s swings and attacking the body with counterpunches.
Frazier’s biggest downside is it’s a tricky style to learn and doesn’t work well with taller created boxers. The style causes taller fighters to look like they’re leading with their face. So stick with the shorter, more powerful style. Like Joe Frazier, it’s a good idea to implement traits that allow Frazier to get up after a knockdown and utilize powerful left hooks andcombinations inUndisputed.
5Joe Calzaghe (Unique)
A Clever And Elusive Boxing Style
Joe Calzaghe is a southpaw fighter, but his style makes him look like he’s switching stances and can attack his opponents at long range for awkward angles. It allows players to be good at counterattacks and faster combinations from all angles with the right traits inUndisputed.
Considering the awkward movements, employing the Switch Hitter trait could be beneficial, allowing the created fighter to alternate between orthodox and southpaw stances without suffering penalties for punching power and defense.
4Tommy Morrison (Unique)
A Style For Power Punchers
Tommy Morrison was a powerful fighter known for having one of the hardest left hooks in boxing. Fans of theRockyfranchisemay recall his performance as Tommy Gunn, who delivered a surprisingly strong performance as Rocky’s protégé turned adversary inRocky 5.The brutal style he used in the film is accurate to his real-life style and it’s captured wonderfully inUndisputed.
Fans of swarming their opponents and breaking them down with heavy hooks to the body and head will love Tommy’s punching style. Tommy’s biggest weakness is that he telegraphs his heaviest punches, but using good timing will pay off with this hard-hitting style.
3Oleksandr Usyk (Unique)
A Solid Style For Counterpunchers
Oleksandr Usyk possesses an excellent and technically sound style that is ideal for custom fighters with a long reach. It’s a style for patient fighters and perfect for landing combinations on the move and even fighting in the pocket utilizing head movement, making the opponent miss, and landing combinations.
Despite being a right-handed fighter, Usyk is a southpaw with a powerful right hook and a quick jab. With a stiff jab, players can use this style to interrupt their opponent’s timing and catch them on the move with a solid and fast right hook. For players looking to use something that’s exclusively suited to the southpaw stance, Usyk’s distinct style is the best inUndisputed.
The Perfect Outboxing Style
Muhammad Ali possesses one of the most unique and fluid styles in boxing, making it look like an art form. For players who create taller fighters and prefer a focus on speed and counterpunching, there’s no better fighting style inUndisputedthan that ofMuhammad Ali.
Ali’s style is effective across all weight classes but is particularly suited for taller boxers with fast hands and excellent defensive traits. This style is not particularly effective for shorter boxers with limited reach, and mastering the technique of retreating and using the ring to compel an opponent to pursue can require considerable practice.
1Floyd Patterson (Unique)
An All Round Style For Speed And Power
Floyd Patterson was known for having some of the fastest hands in boxing. His peek-a-boo fighting style was taught to him by the legendary trainer Cus D’Amato. D’Amato imparted the same distinctive style to Mike Tyson years later. Where the style played into Tyson’s strengths as a powerful fighter, the same style worked for Patterson’s speed.
It’s a balanced style, ideal for players seeking to combine speed and power. It’s especially suitable for those who wish to build aMike Tyson character, considering he is not yet part of theUndisputedroster. His statistics do not accurately reflect his abilities inUndisputed, and he is far from being a top-tier fighter in the game.
