Is Marquez the most precise combination puncher in boxing?

    I think it was due to swallowing too much blood.

    However, it was Marquez who made him bleed in the first place.

    His distance and timing is truly a sight to behold.

    To fight in the way he does take balls.

    If you're a boxer, would you risk being in the line of fire just to find openings?

    yer anyone who has stepped in the ring can really appreciate marquez's style on another level. one of the hardest things for me as a boxer is learning to open up and exchange when the other guy is doing so its mentally exhausting sometimes but its something you MUST learn to do if you want to win fights (especially in the amateurs).

    I like Evander Holyfield better in his prime.

    Yes and he has the best uppercut in boxing right now as well. I love how he throws the uppercut.

    I think PBF is just as precise when he decides to let his hands go, but no one in the game today can throw such long and complex combinations as Marquez. Generally, most combinations involve a similar sequence of moves depending on the tilt of the body. For example, if you lean to the left you're most likely throwing some combination involving left hooks to the body, left uppercuts and overhand rights/straights in an alternating left right pattern. Marquez can throw combinations involving uppercuts from both hands, punches off the same hand, hit you to the body and head multiple times, and all as rapidly and fluidly as a machine. Some of the combos he was hitting Urango and Katsidis with just made my jaw drop.
