    When a fighter goes up in weight it's not the fighter losing his power, infact with the additional weight he should gain more . . . it's the opositions greater ability to absorb the power of the move up guy.

    No his defense is usually good, Vazquez got under his skin by trash talking in the weeks before the fight. And Marquez trying to prove that he was better in all aspects, played right into Israel's plan by brawling.

    Expect to see Marquez as refined as in the first fight. Maybe better. This fight will most likely be more technical than the rematch, thats what Nacho Beristain is gunning for.

    Cool, thats good to hear. I seemed to remember him showing good boxing skills in earlier fights and was shocked at how much he was getting hit last time. I hope he does try to box more this time, i really liked his style.
