In the opinion of former Mexican champion Israel Vazquez, Puerto Rico's Juan Manuel "Juanma" Lopez still need to face opposition from higher quality before considering a fight against Rafael Marquez.
However, Vasquez did not hesitate to anticipate that the confrontation would be "interesting."
"With all the respect tha I feel for Juan Manuel, I think he has not face too many high quality opposition. A boxer with the resources of Rafael, would force Lopez to use its experience from his amateur days. Rafael will be a big test and he will want to show what have done, "Vazquez said in a telephone interview with Primera Hora from Los Angeles, California.
On Saturday, Vazquez dropped Marquez defeated hands via TKO in the third assault, leaving the door open for a future meeting between his compatriot and Lopez.
"It would be an interesting fight. Everything will depend on their promoters companies agree. It is natural for a young boxer comes as Lopez you want to eat the oldest. Juan Manuel is at the time and always interesting to see a matchup of youth against experience, "said Vazquez, who has not yet decided the immediate future of his boxing career.
"Right now I am resting and recovering from injuries. I'm enjoying my family, "he said.
It also hopes to meet next week with your manager to discuss your alternatives.
"I submitted a bad role in the fight. I think we started talking too soon to retire. I have possibilities in the boxing, "he said.
