Vazquez-Marquez on April 7!

Thursday, January 11 2007


It looks like a super bantamweight superfight between WBC champion Israel Vazquez and IBF bantamweight champion Rafael Marquez will take place on April 7 in either Las Vegas or Los Angeles. It will be another acid test for Vazquez after his victorious war over WBO bantamweight titlist Jhonny Gonzalez last September. The bout will be televised in the U.S. on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING.

i rate marquez very highly and think he's doing the right thing moving up in weight because an eventual fight with pac is a cetainty. i like vasquez also and his fight with gonzalez was a real war but i think rafa has to much in every department for him and will take this one.
