Nicknamed Little Tyson for his highly aggressive buzz saw attacking style. Monshipour was WBA super bantamweight champ for 3 years. Although rather crude he was nevertheless a relentless force in the ring that made him quite the exciting boxing star from France. Although mostly known for his legendary FOTY bout with Somsak Sithchatchawal he’s been in plenty other terrific battles as well.

Both Mahyar Monshipour and Israel Vazquez were champs around the same time between 2005 and 2006. It would have been absolutely epic had they both fought, perhaps before their FOTY bouts took place. I honestly wish boxing fans had a chance to see these two face off while they were both title holders.
