    Other than the famous Rafael Marquez trilogy, what are the other wars he competed in?

    If can, list all of them

    The Jhonny Gonzalez fight stands out for me, other than the Marquez fights. Vasquez is a special ighter. He's losing until he isn't.

    Already great fights mentioned above .. The heart of a Lion who lost his eye because he was the ultimate warrior .. The Marquez Vazquez fights are as GOOD as it gets ..
    By the way , those wars ended Rafa's career as well

    Vazquez didn’t do bad fights. What a warrior. The Larios trilogy was fun, even though the first and third were quick, the second was a classic. The Jhonny Gonzalez was a great fight too. He had some fun ones on the way up, his fight with Marcos Lincona (who later fought JMM) was a good fight as well.

    Vazquez is a real warrior. Unfortunately his type doesn’t come around anymore. And what a nice person he is. One of the nicest guys you could ever meet.

    Boxing fans should treat themselves by watching Vazquez's fights in his honor. Very fan friendly fighter to watch.

    Vasquez vs Gonzalez was a hell of a fight.

    I don't think I've ever seen that one. Worth checking out I'm guessing?

    It's been awhile since I've last seen it but it was most definitely a hidden gem of a fight that's well worth a watch, much like with most Vazquez's fight. Very competitive and close fight from what I remember. Can't find a full video of the fight on YouTube as of right now.
