    Wrong. Fighters who are not big punchers can stay in the pocket, make a fighter miss and make them pay. I can name MANY.

      No, it means fight in a way that gives the fans an exciting fight instead of boos. But if you like boring fights, thats your pleasure.

        One of Vasquez's stylistic flaws. He frequently uses his legs for defense, which explains for his low work-rate. But a fighter needs to have amazing conditioning to pull it off.

        Being on your bike doesn't equal ring generalship imho.

          I have nothing against Vazquez, but I think he is a bit overrated. I think Gesta will chase him around until he lands a big punch and knocks him out. Time will tell.

            Like I stated before, Quintero was tagging Vazquez quite frequently despite what the scorecards were. Gesta being more athletic, faster and having more pop might have a better chance at beating Vazquez. At times Vazquez looked like he could be hurt or WAS hurt vs Quintero and if Gesta tags his ass he's gonna hit the canvas. If Gesta learns to cut the ring off he will beat Vazquez.

                He's boring and people boo him, thats the bottom line.

                  People boo Donaire as well but both get the job done.

                    Reminds me of Chavez Jr saying to Martínez that he should fight and not run. Then Martínez anyway beat the crap out of him.
