Assorted Israel Vázquez Castañeda Fights, GC's Standalone RBR Scorecards.

God. I'd give a kidney or something less to see either of these two in the ring with Zaragoza or Tatsuyoshi.

Hell, even Hozumi or Deathmask would've been insane against these two.

 

@IntentionalButt any specific reason a Donaire/Vásquez fight didn't materialise? Timing and the Marquez fights?

 

Round 7: Larios 10-9

Vásquez applying pressure much more efficiently now, bullying Larios around too. His head-movement, bullishness and general gameplan remind me of Henry Armstrong, shame he can't pin Óscar down yet, but he's getting there. Larios still working well enough off the back-foot to out-hustle Vásquez. Winning, slightly, so far(two minutes in). Good action in the final minute, Larios throwing more, but taking some big shots to the mid-section.

 

Round 8: Vásquez 10-9
My paragraph deleted itself.

Basically Vásquez bobbed, weaved and beat the Holy Ghost out of Óscar.

79-73 Larios.

 

Round 9: Vásquez 10-9

This was very, very good. Vásquez backing off more, drawing the lead from Larios, Óscar falling hook, line and sinker. Izzy countering hard and regularly, lovely short, thudding shots catching Larios on the way in, repeatedly... What more could you want? Larios being the aggressor, particularly late on, and landing solid himself too, Vásquez taking him too slick town here though. Lots more thrown both.

 

Round 10: Larios 10-9, swing.
Round 11: Vásquez 10-9, close.

I'm too tired and ****ing lazy for this deep **** rn.

 

Round 12: Larios KO

Chololo coming out as aggressively as he did in the 10th and 11th, only to be countered yet again but Izzy. Izzy lost his footing, possibly from a trip, and fell back to the ropes; Larios attacking even more passionately due to this, again tasting leather for his efforts. The ref told them to break, then BOOM!!!!! A huge right hand landed perfectly on the button and Vásquez was down. 1. 2. 3. 4. Count waved.



107-102 Larios TOS
