    Most fighters always stay composed because as soon as you become angry and lose control you leave yourself open and get knocked out but for some fighters actually get better. Best example I can think of is Marvin Haggler in the Hamsho fight. He got so sick of Hamsho headbutting him than he went all out and destroyed Hamsho.

    I agree with this.

    I think this is another reason to make the ring size smaller because when Rigo DOES fight, he whups somebody's ass.

    Rigo can really fight.

    Absolutely not Marquez, no. He is cool as frozen cucumber (even when getting dribbled off the canvas), and his discipline is his best asset.

    Marquez has great recovery skills the guy is tough as nails.

    Nacho"i knew we made Pac angry in the 5th and that is what exactly happened i wanted to stop the fight"

    He does have great recovery skills and is tough as nails.

    He isn't an emotional fighter, however. Being one absolutely wouldn't suit his style or play to his strengths. (whereas it worked for El Terrible)

    I agree Marquez is very calculated and if he was emotional fighter Pac would of had his way easier.

    Marquez used stop and start and smart moves with Pac the only ever time he fought full on with Pac was the first round of the first fight but you can't blame him he did not know how destructive Pac was.

    Didn't Pac also destroy Margarito for making fun of Roach and his Parkinsons disease? I mean it seemed at times he was just trying to damage him and not just knock him out
