Rafael Marquez Back in Training, Wants Vazquez
By Mark Vester
After getting banged up in a minor car accident, Rafael Marquez took some time to heal some bumps and bruises but he is now back in the Romanza boxing gym in Iztacalco, Mexico and training very hard for his next fight, which he hopes will come in the form of a fourth meeting with Israel Vazquez.
Marquez stopped Vazquez in their first meeting, with Vazquez stopping Marquez in the rematch. Their third meeting, the 2008 fight of the year, saw Vazquez and Marquez trade knockdowns before Vazquez took a very close decision.
Vazquez plans to return at the featherweight limit and he too is eager for a fourth meeting with Marquez. The fight will have to take place at that weight. There is some talk that Marquez may return in the month of August. With July already here, it's unlikely that a fourth Vazquez bout will take place that soon.
