    Great fight! Hadn't seen this one before. Really good action and highly competitive. Impressive body work by Canizales but also really nice short straight punching from Curtis. Two really well schooled and well conditioned fighters.

    Watched Vazquez vs O. Canizales as well. Also a good fight.

    Orlando Canizales vs Vasquez was indeed a quality fight. RAZOR close, but I had Vasquez winning by a hair.

    Orlando was faded by time he fought Vasquez.

    Ironic you post this, as I was actually watching Canizales' (Orlando) second fight with Billy Hardy last night. Pretty one sided, but maybe the best performance of his career. One of the more UNDERRATED one punch KO's. He laid Hardy out COLD with a beautiful half hook/half left uppercut.

    The best performance of Gaby's career was his destruction of Richie Sandoval (though somewhat tainted as Sandoval was terribly weight drained).

    Between the two Canizales brothers, Gaby was the bigger puncher, but Orlando was better at everything else.
