    I go with vazguez after tough fight ending in war.

    This should be action packed, fan friendly fight.

    If indeed it's that kind of fight, then Safikov would be the favorite to wind up as the winner.

    Vázquez wants a pistol duel; Shafikov would prefer masthead swashbuckling.

    Another boring unwatchable fight involving Vasquez.

    How this **** is getting shown on HBO is beyond me, it's sleep inducing.

    Vasquez wins as expected by UD on all 3 cards.

    2 generous scorecards (115-113 and 116-112 for Vazquez) and one correct scorecard of 119-109 Vazquez.

    Exactly.

    All Vasquez does round after round is circle and jab, circle and jab, circle and jab...watching the tide come in and out is far more entertaining then watching him.

    I can't think of someone more boring in professional boxing than Vasquez.

    How do you even market someone like that? Fair enough he's great at what he does but at the end of the day boxing is all about money. Can't see anyone in their right mind who would pay a penny to watch him.

    Agreed.

    If they want to kill boxing in China, they're doing a damn good job of it by showing them **** like this.

    Vasquez should be banned from representing boxing on television, he even makes boring fighters like Mayweather seem like Auturo Gatti in comparison.

    Anyone whose first experience of boxing is watching a Vasquez fight would be turned off boxing for life.

    Vazquez very bad to watch. He won the contest but lost the respect of fans. He will not be welcome again in China.

    There was the Mexican Russian in Gradovich, there's also the Cuban Mexican in Vazquez. :D
