    stick a fork in him.

    he may have enough to beat marquez at featherweight based on natural size, since i havent seen marquez since his return and he may be equally shot.

    but vasquez is finished. he cant see right hands coming at all anymore. he got all he could handle and was busted up by angel priolo.

    Marquez isn't retiring anyone. He's done as well.

    hey, Vazquez KO Piriolo in 9, knocking him down three times. Doesn't sound like a shot guy. He must fight Juanma Lopez.

    From their business perspectives Vazquez and Marquez need to fight each other. From my business perspective, they need to be put in seperate matches with up and comers or veterans that will bring me good odds. :lol:

    Wow even after eight rounds. He must have looked even worse than Marquez in his return. The trilogy ruined both fighters.

    Fuck, that's a shame, I really like Vasquez.

    Just how horrible Neil? Slow? Bad timing? Accuracy?

    he was never a good defensive fighter, but now he looks like gatti. cannot see punching coming at all with his injured eye. he got busted up early against a light hitting guy who was never even a legit super bantamweight.

    He was never a great fighter anyway. I actually like him even though he fights at a dull weight class, a women's weight. He has a ton of heart. His 12th round display in the third fight was possibly the most courageous thing I have seen in the ring.

    I wish he would just retire. He is never going to do anything worth being blinded or worse. If Boxing were a real sport, he'd never be allowed to fight.

    I haven't seen the fight but it's not very surprising. Vazquez was never a defensive genius but i can't imagine too many fighters going through that trilogy and ever being the same again.

    I'm pretty confident both guys are done.

    I'm not saying he's not done, but i remember seeing Vasquez look very ordinary in a title defence before the Marquez trilogy every happened.....maybe he just needs that big fight motivation... and lets not forget that he has been out of the ring for a while.

    He looked real rusty that's for sure...The other guy was garbage and it took Vasquez 8 rounds to finally catch him. He looks kind of finished.
