Vazquez was an excellent fighter. I fought Rojas was the real deal; Wilfredo showed otherwise and it turned out Eloy was not even the best in Venezuela in the era eh Antonio?!


I'll be honest I never knew that much about Rojas, and Venezuela isn't exactly a world hotbed of boxing champions, is it. I do know, however, that it was a pretty good fight, and Vazquez was a great champion. Unfortunately he ran into Naseem later on, but so did a lot of other good featherweights.
