I agree. But to jump 2 divisions against a puncher like Vasquez is crazy! He should look guys like Darchinyan or Munoz IMO

I don't think Munoz is a real money fight though. Maybe Vic although it would have been bigger a year or two ago.

I just see the method behind the madness so to speak. At 115 there's really only Montiel and that's not as big a name as Vazquez, there's no reason to fight anybody at 118 if you're on the way out, I mean why get your ass kicked by Gerry Penalosa for one fifth of the money that you would get for getting your ass kicked by Izzy? I just hope he doesn't get hurt, I suspect though the ref would be watching him closely whether he admits it or not.
I agree Darchinyan would have been bigger awhile back but its still a very winnable & entertaining fight. A Munoz fight would be also very exciting & Arce would have a better chance there than against Vasquez. Theres also Navarro & Kirilov. Banal is on his way up. Arce could play out the end of his career against much safer opponents & still get some good paydays
