During the fight, did Vera appeared hurt, since he did mention in his post-fight interview that he did suffer a broken hand.
If this is the case Vera should take care of injury and get right back into the mix. He's 29 years old, the window of opportunity for a combat fighter is not that big. He still has alot that we haven't seen. His standup is much better than alot of heavyweights, but I'd love to see him in a grueling fight on the ground just to see what he's got. I've personally seen Vera's skills on the ground and the boy is smooth, but yet to find him in a tough fight.
For me, whether it's boxing, Muay Thai, or MMA, if a fighter ain't had a tough fight, then he ain't really been in a fight.
