Israel Vazquez on Returning, Fighting Juanma, Luevano

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former champion Israel Vazquez, regarded as one of best fighters in the world, is counting down the days until he is medically cleared to return to the ring. Vazquez had surgery to his right eye to correct a detached retina. The process to get his license straightened out has been a long ordeal. [details]

Above all else, I hope he gets healthy. Not only for boxing, but for his life.

As much as I wanna see him back in the ring, I don't wanna see anything tragic happen.

i'm happy he's coming back but fighting juanma right away it's not a good idea.

stay on 122 unification fight w/ Juanma

[lopez36]

juanma said this is his last year at 122,so vazquez can take one fight at 126,then meet juanma at 126,he deserves a fight after a very long lay off before facing juanma,,by the time he fights again,were talking about a year and a half off,thats too much to go straight to a big fight,i think he can fight luevano,and juanma will go up as he said,that would be a good fight

I hope he gets better but a detached retina is a serious injury. I wonder if he will ever be the same fighter? I know I would sure love to see him fight again but only if it's safe for him and he isn't a shell of his former self..

The "super-featherweight" part of the article is a typo I'm assuming.

Anyway, I did find it odd that he doesn't want to fight at 122 anymore, because there are no more good opponents, but a fight with Juan Manuel Lopez is interesting. Hmmmmmm...

I hope Juanma vs Vazquez can be made at 126 so that Juanma could concentrate on Caballero and Rafa at 122.
