    I don't think they should be fighting again; they have already done enough to each other. Vasquez with his detached retina really shouldn't be fighting anymore. I think Marquez will win this one by TKO.

      I don't think they hate each other. Wouldn't say they're friends, but I'm sure they both respect each other a lot, and recognize the other one has done a lot of good for their careers and given them great paydays.

        One of the greatest trilogies of all time. All 3 fights were fort with great skill and heart. 2 Great warriors, none of them would give an inch

        Hopefully they both come out of the fight OK, those 3 fights and the punishment they put on each other must of really took something out of them.

        That said, im looking forward to the fight. Id im thinking of a Marquez win.

          This fight isn't necessary (Vazquez won 2 out of 3). They already took so much punishment in the first 3 fights, a fourth could very well be the end of their careers.

          I respect them as warriors of course, though.
          Exactly how I feel. The fight will almost certainly be exciting, but I don't want these two to keep killing each other.

            I've wanted it ever since I got around to watching the third instalment. One of the best trilogies in boxing history, and possibly even the best quadrilogy. I'm hoping Marquez makes it 2-2 so that both can move on with their lives... if not necessarily careers.

            I baulk at the mentality of those who think the fight shouldn't happen on the grounds of health reasons, the need to fight other people, etc. What a load of ****! If these 2 warriors want to keep fighting each other in amazing battles, who are we to object? Let 'em do their thing until they get sick of each other. It's their lives and their careers.

              I don't think anyone is against the fight happening, we just wish the two would move on with what is left of their careers. They have proved to be equal to each other, time to take on new challenges.

                Vazquez needed that and he got it...
                I thought he won it too. The point deduction was absolute crap.

                  "We"? Speak for yourself. If they only want to challenge each other, then so be it. That's their choice. And if this fight turns out to be great, I wouldn't mind a quintology if that's what they want. It's not like we're faced with a series of Mayweather-Baldomir or Wladimir-Ibragimov -type of fights.

                  Even if they want to die in that ring at each others' hands, then it should be done. They're grown men who've given their all to boxing, so all we can do is sit back and appreciate what they're doing.
