Who was the most composed fighter?

OK, Andrew Golota

How about one of my all time favorite fighters.......VINNY PAZIENZA!!!

[BigStereotype]

Prince Naseem, Kermit Cintron, Zab Judah, Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao are probably the least composed fighters I ever saw. I was a little hesitant to put Pac-Man in there, but he goes absolutely nuts when he sees blood. He's like a shark.

Sonny Liston!

I have always been impressed with how cool and calm Liston looked... both under pressure, and when he went in for the kill. When he had an opponent going, you never saw him rush in over-eager, missing punches all over the place.

Just look at the 2nd Williams bout (my favourite Liston fight!)... after flooring the Big Cat he didn't go wild, but calmly maneuvered him into a corner, where he cut him down in impressive fashion, making every punch count.

Harold Johnson.

[Joey Giardello]

the most composed fighter was carlos monzon

[oldgringo]

Best example I can think of recently is Floyd Mayweather Jr. The guy never gets rattled. Going back a bit I'd point to Chavez. Going back even further I'd think about Eder Jofre. He was an even keel fighter who could adjust his plan throughout fights accordingly.

Salvador Sanchez...a good example as well.

No mention of calzaghe?

Prince Naseem, Kermit Cintron, Zab Judah, Mike Tyson and Manny Pacquiao are probably the least composed fighters I ever saw. I was a little hesitant to put Pac-Man in there, but he goes absolutely nuts when he sees blood. He's like a shark.

I'm actually willing to give Hamed a pass, as his whole style was predicated upon luring the opponent into exchanges by being so wide open and reckless. Of course when that doesn't work (i.e. Barrera)...

[Rushcutters Bay]

Most uncomposed Oliver McCall

[louis54]

Alot of good choices here but i go with louis

[Suckmedry]

OK, Andrew Golota

Zab has to have the worst composure ina top fighter I've ever seen. Whenever it got bad for Judah in any way, he lost it.
