    This is the official (and perfect/storybook) end of their rivalry, as far as I'm concerned.

    It was a trilogy, damnit! :rosstheboss

    One of the best boxing rivalries. The third fight was hands down the best and most dramatic of the bunch. Marquez and Vazquez were made for each other.

    I actually didn’t want them to fight more than once. Thought it took too much out of both men. Crazy thing is they rematched 5 months later!

    Undoubtedly one of the most dramatic and violent trilogies ever.

    Better than the Morales/Barrera trilogy overall for me.

    This is the last fight these two had. People say they had a fourth fight, but I've never seen any documented evidence of that.

    All of their fights were great, but the third one in particular was insane.
