Vazquez vs Sonsona

**Puerto Rican Punch** · 02-26-2010 08:31 PM

Historically there had been great championship fights between Puertorrican and Mexican fighters, which created high expectations. However, recently this has been changing replacing Mexico by Philipines. Tomorrow (Feb 27) we will have another chapter protagonized by two (2) young prospects; Wilfredo Vazquez Jr (son of former 3 times World Champ, Wilfredo Vazquez) from Puerto Rico and Marvin Sonsona from Philipines (became WC beating Carita Lopez from Puerto Rico).

What I have to say about this fight is that it has great opportunities from being terminated by TKO since both young fighters are showing great hunger for winning, and both have good power punch. This definitely adds possibilities of seeing a very entertaining fight.

No doubt to say that I am with Vazquez, specially after the little trash talking from Sonsona about past Puertorrocan Champs. The comment I have for Sonsona is that not all fighters from Philipines are named Paquiao.

Vazquez Jr. KOs Sonsona | Boxing News

In a clash for the vacant WBO junior featherweight championship, Wilfredo Vazquez, Jr. (18-0-1, 15 KOs) scored an impressive fourth round KO over previously unbeaten former WBO super flyweight champion Marvin Sonsona (14-1-1, 12 KOs) on Saturday night at the Coliseo Ruben Rodriguez in Bayamon, Puerto Rico. Vazquez Jr., son of Puerto Rican ring great Wilfredo Vazquez, took over the fight in round two and battered the 19-year-old former 115lb champion who had moved up two divisions to the deck in the fourth. A Vazquez left hook to the body ended it for Sonsona at the 2:01 mark. He did not beat the count of referee Luis Pabon.
