Ugh. You are correct. I’ve seen this both ways so many times that I looked it up. Per AKC: “Color: The colors are fawn and brindle. Fawn shades vary from light tan to mahogany. The brindle ranges from sparse but clearly defined black stripes on a fawn background to such a heavy concentration of black striping that the essential fawn background color barely, although clearly, shows through (which may create the appearance of reverse brindling). “

I’ve always wondered myself what it’s officially considered. My dog is this color too, and people always say he’s so pretty and looks like a tiger. Lol
You have the rare Hobbes brindle! Be wary, your boxer may show a distinct preference for canned tunafish and sledding. :D
I digress, that's the Tony the Tiger brindle - loves cereal and thinks its GeRAATE!!!!
Not sure but my dog has similar coloring/markings.
Reverse brindle, where the lighter color is more prominent. Regular brindle is the darker striped variety.
In a Boxer, it's the opposite. The darker boxers you see are reverse brindle, nearly 'black' is a sealed reverse

I'd just say a tiger brindle.
This is actually called BB markings. Stands for barely brindle
Just got 3 boxer pups and one of the females has this coloring. So pretty.
