Two-time Junior Featherweight World Champion Israel Vazquez will take on perennial contender Angel Priolo in a ten round featherweight fight on Saturday, October 10 at The Nokia Theatre at L.A Live in Los Angeles, CA.

Yesterday, Vasquez held an workout where he stunned members of the media in attendance with a tremendous display of skill.

Israel Vazquez: “I’m coming back because I love the sport. I feel really good physically and mentally.

“The best way I can prove to the media and my fans that I’ve recovered from my injury, is to go out and win on October 10 and that’s what I intend to do.”

“I’m in great shape, I’ve trained really hard and I’m confident that I will beat Priolo. I’ve practiced a lot more defense and movement using angles and I’m ready for the 10th.”

Rundy Perez, Vazquez’ trainer:

“He’s really hungry and confident for this fight and that makes his whole team confident in him. I’ve been with him for five weeks and we are ready to fight.

“We have been working on his defense and you will see the new Vazquez on October 10th.”
