Arce has vacated his WBO 122lbs title and these guys will fight for it..
Poor Vazquez cuz I like this guy too... Looks like he's headed for a second thrashing..
Thoughts?

Vazquez Jr. is good and I like him as well. But he's taking on a current p4p top 5 (in my view, anyway). Looks like a steep hill to climb.
Yea man.. I have nothing but respect for guys like Vazquez. For a youngster with no amatuer background, he's a natural.. He's an overachiever.
Some balls this guy has too, wanting to take on Boxing's best.
If I was handling his career though, I would have advised him to jump on Rico Ramos' title as soon as he won it.. Vazquez can beat someone like Ramos and that probably would have been the easiest route to a title. But too bad Rigondeaux is going to get to Ramos first.
we talked about this fight the other day, and like i told you then, IMO he's being rushed, they need to take a step back with Vazquez Jr and work on his defense and fine tune is technical abilities, like you said he's an overachiever and well JCC Jr could learn a thing or two from the guy
Credit to Vasquez Jr for taking the fight, it's not going to be easy. It's unfortunate that he will probably be taken apart by Donaire because he should be applauded for not taking an easy route
The Best There Is, The Best There Was, The Best There Ever Will Be
Man, Donaire vs Arce is so elusive. Guess its still in the horizon; if Arce becomes a 5-division world champion and Donaire beats Vasquez Jr convincingly, the event will be inevitable.
"A liar can turn truth into lies. Weakness can turn pain into hurt."
This is a garbage fight for Donaire. An Arce fight would have been bad enough (total mismatch), but Arce's leftovers?? And Arum wants to make it a PPV headliner too -- no thanks.
If Donaire's not going to stick around to beat the winner of the Agbeko-Mares fight, he should be moving straight to 126. There is absolutely no one worthwhile at 122. This is a waste of time.
Come on now. Vazquez was expected to shread Arce. Arce was coming off that gift draw to Lorenzo Parra. In which he looked like a shell of his former self. But he still had name value. Which is why they took the fight. Cuz they wanted to add a famous name to his resume. Not cuz they thought it was gonna be a competitive fight But they miscalculated. Arce wasn't quite done. Instead he tapped that azz. Now muthafukkas want to make it seem like Vazquez lost cuz he was willing to take on the best competition. When in reality he lost cuz they took on a fighter that they thought was shot but wasn't.
Props to Vasquez, that's a tough order on his plate, not sure he can make it (except through an upset of course) but he does deserve tons of credit for not cherrypicking.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
So no one thinks that the fight will be competitve at all?? Vazquez was giving Arce a run for his money in there fight until the later rounds so while I dont think he wins I still see a competitive and entertaining fight.
The key is Self-discipline.
