    Marquez pulls out of Vazquez Jr. PPV clash

    [FONT=Arial Narrow, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][/FONT]Former WBO super bantamweight champion Wilfredo Vazquez Jr. (21-2-1, 18 KOs) will now face WBO #3 Jonathan “Polvo” Oquendo (22-2, 15 KOs) on October 6 at the Coliseo Ruben Rodriguez in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, in a PR Best Boxing Promotions (PRBBP) presentation, in association with All Star Boxing, Top Rank and Promociones Zanfer to be broadcast on Pay Per View.
    “Rafael Marquez is facing health problems and working on some personal issues and will not fight against Wilfredo Vazquez Jr.,” Peter Rivera, PRBBP Vice-President, said. “Now, we are going to make Vazquez Jr. against Oquendo, a fight long awaited by Puerto Rican fans.”

    I agree, it's time Rafa calls it a career. Arce rematch sounds good or what about an all Boricua show down with Rico Ramos? Island Boricua vs a West Coast Boricua.

    jonathan oquendo is way better than vazquez jr. but his recent accident where his GF died might have a negative effect on him negatively.. i doubt that he is all there mentally for a world championship fight

    :hat
