    Israel Vasquez, HOF Fighter?

    I think so! But he still has more to do. I hope these brutal fights don't put a slow down to his performance in his future.

    Well, he pretty much had a very successful career before meeting Marquez, but this trilogy cements his place in the Hall Of Fam. I mean seriously, if this dude cant be compensated like Mayweather, De La Hoya or Klitschko for the fights he puts on, then atleast reward him for what he's done by giving him a HOF spot. I would be really disgusted by the sport if he doesnt. maybe its just my "****tions" getting the best of me but thats how i feel.

        Yeah, you know, it's like the little men in boxing are the guys who work the hardest in a factory and get paid the least. Then you got the CEO's and office people who sit on their ass, never break out a sweat and get paid tons of money(heavyweights). Although I'm not saying heavyweight's don't fight as hard or anything like that. I'm just saying, because they are bigger, it seems they should be paid more money. Yet, you won't see from heavyweights anything like what we saw from Raf-Marquez. These guys deserve much more money for putting on timeless fights that will be remembered for ages. Almost all the FOTYs happen below 140lbs. Yet they aren't compensated for their efforts

          Even if he doesnt make it to the HOF, this trilogy will be talked about for decades. It ranks up there with Gatti/Ward, and Chico/Castillo. Its a shame that these to fighters banked less than 1mil from last nights fight, while Wlad gets in upwards of 10mil for his ****ty, 12rnd jabathon.

            Yea i think so for sure. He had his "Joe Frazier" like every great fighter needs.

            He is pretty much there, he just needs maybe one more big win or a few lesser ones to make it in for sure.

            I think Marquez will make it as well

              After last night's victory, he is on a first class trip to the hall. These two fighter's were made for one another.

                  Whats up Man? Congratulations on your guy's win yesterday, Remember me? I'm that ballheaded guy with the black Everlast shirt that asked you if you ever go to Boxingscene.com while you were walking to the back with the WBC belt.
