its fustrating that these guys dont get the attention and credit they deserve just because of their weightclass. and that some "boxing purists" even dare to call them "mindless skillless brawlers".

I think Vasquez deals with adversity a bit better than Marquez does. The only time Marquez was close to getting beat in recent memory was in the Tim Austin Fight where Tim was clearly winning and then ate a couple rights and that's that. Vasquez has been on the losing seat more often then Marquez, (Larios - Came back to KO him - Gonzales was clearly beating him scoring 2 KD's-Came back to KO him - Marquez- Comes back to KO him next fight) Vasquez has shown tremendous heart and effort. Now, lets see what Marquez can do having to come back.

I don't blame the odds being in Vazquez's favor for the third fight, he has clearly gotten the better results after two fights. If it weren't for a broken nose, we might not need a third fight, ya know?

I don't know why, but I think I still favor Marquez.

Tim Austin ate way more then a couple of rights, he was beating beaten up badly by marquez. Marquez was just waling away, and sent Austin through the ropes if u'll remember.

That last round of that Austin-Marquez fight remains one of my favorite rounds of action of all time.

Yes I remember Tim getting KD thru the ropes. I was typing fast and I know that Marquez landed more than a few right hands. I still had Tim unquestionalby winning the fight up until the KO. Marquez was getting out boxed but Tim was getting out punched.

And again I agree, that last round was fantastic and full of action. Cheers!

Vasquez is just too big for Marquez, thats it.

If Marquez had better head movement and defense, he could pick Vasquez apart easily. But Marquez hasnt really needed to implement any defense in his entire career, cause he punches like a ****in wrecking ball.

I hope Marquez comes into this next fight more schooled on his feet and more vigiliant of Vasquez' intentions. Otherwise Vasquez is just going to put somthing heavy on him again.

Vazquez would have won the first were it not for the broken nose I believe. He was starting to come back but they had to stop it because he could no longer breath.

My boy Izzy takes the third.
