This sucks. They don't make 'em tougher than Israel Vazquez and he earned his place in boxing history through blood, sweat, and tears. Rest easy, champion.
Awful news, he was a legend, that trilogy was fabulous. Met him in Vegas for Oscar v Pac-Man, he was very friendly and down to earth. RIP.
I covered his last fight. I was sorry to see he was battling cancer and deeply saddened to see of his passing. RIP Champ
One of the most exciting fighters of all time. Always always came to fight. RIP champ. Miss his era so much.
