Comments Thread For: Miguel Vazquez Gets Split Nod Over Marvin Quintero

[Suavecito80]

vazquez fights up to the level of competition. . . throw him in with a world class opponent, you'll see world class skills.

he beats gesta. . picks apart broner from the outside. . Demarco is too slow for him. . stylistically, the toughest fight for him would be Burns.

Broner and Demarco work him over. He looks clumsy as hell when he punches and moves. Quintero buzzed him a few times and that's that Vazquez had all of the advantages. This dude is not the best LW in the world.

How is Quintero a "club fighter"? He obviously did enough to earn a title shot by winning the eliminator. Gesta on the other hand hasn't even beat boxers ranked in the top 100 in the division.

Again, don't kid yourself. Rios would have tormented Vasquez and Quintero was NO MORE worthy of a shot than Gesta, especially after being knocked out by ancient feather fisted Attah.

Quintero was the mando......

not too impressed with vazquez,for one he moves way too much,i think the winner of demarco/broner beats him easily

[UglyPug]

we'll see. . we'll see. .

Broner probably will catch him, and stop him. but Vazquez will pop him with a lot of jabs, and if he avoids Broner's big punches, he outpoints him.

DeMarco is really that as good as advertised. He is a great puncher, but he's rather slow, and crude. Vazquez would outpoint him easily.

This guy barely beat a clubfighter and some fools think he could win all 12 rounds against Rios and Gesta? Get off the crack. He is a top 6 lightweight but no better than top 4.

Rios shouldn't even be in the discussion anymore since he isn't at 135.

I think Vasquez is a pretty good fighter. I like the fact that he uses the entire ring to his advantage. He's a mover, that's his style. Can the movement get excessive? Yes, but not everyone has the endurance/stamina to pull it off, so kudos to him.

That fight was a great remedy for anyone suffering from insomnia. It'll put you too sleep watching it.

vazquez has the ugliest style i've ever seen tho........was hoping quintero would get the decision because quintero vs gesta would be ten times better than vazquez vs gesta.

[Doctor_Tenma]

And Vazquez is suppose to be the best LW in the world??? We'll see. He still beats Gesta though, but Yuri needs to get back in the ring and snatch that LW title from him.

Gamboa wouldn't snatch a thing, stylistically Vazquez is all wrong for him. We already saw what happened to Gamboa when he couldn't get Barros to play his game, Vazquez operates a lot better and is a very committed pure boxer, Vazquez's ranginess alone would be troubling. That wasn't his best performance though, still felt Vazquez beat Quintero clearly.
