Super Bantam Madness

[killersheep]

The WBC does it again!!

They have granted "Champion Emeritus" status to Israel Vazquez while he recovers from surgery. Toshiaki Nishioka won a UD over Napapol Kiatisakchokchai in September to become the WBC Superbantam interim title holder. Nishioka has become the regular WBC Superbantam champ with the Vazquez move. Nishioka will defend against recent Hasegawa victim Genaro Garcia. The WBC has said that the winner of that match will be required to face either Jhonny Gonzalez or Rafa Marquez. In my opinion it doesn't matter if Gonzalez OR Marquez gets the shot they will destroy Nishioka or Garcia regardless of who wins. That should be around the time that Vaquez comes back so Fall of '09 it is likely we will see Vazquez/Marquez IV or Vazquez/Gonzalez II. I think it's important to note that Champion Emeritus status has no time limit i.e. Vitali Klitschko.

Furthermore, it appears that IBF/WBA Champion Celestino Caballero is being shut out against any unification attempts with the WBC in the foreseeable future, which leaves me wondering if we may also see Caballero/Lopez (WBO champ) or if he will fight Poonsawat Kratingdaenggym who won a title eliminator off of FOTY combatant Somsak Sithchatsawal as his WBA mandatory or less likely Jeff Mathebula from South Africa who won a title eliminator over Julio Zarate as his mandatory IBF opponent.

As messy as this situation is, I think the willingness of all these guys to fight each other may lead to an actual 4 alphabet champ.

There are some ridiculous things that need to be mentioned here.

The WBC ranks Rey Bautista 10th and 11th, I don't think even Saddoboxer could explain that one.

NONE of the four rank Steve Molitor anymore, which is ridiculous considering he lost one match and that was against another strap holder.

Do you nkow why Vazquez is having surgery?
You know, I wouldn't mind seeing a Vazquez/Marquez 4 or Vazquez/Gonzalez 2
Or maybe even a Marquez/Gonzalez?

Retinal detachment is a disorder of the eye in which the retina peels away from its underlying layer of support tissue. Initial detachment may be localized, but without rapid treatment the entire retina may detach, leading to vision loss and blindness. It is a medical emergency. [1]
The retina is a thin layer of light-sensitive tissue on the back wall of the eye. The optical system of the eye focuses light on the retina much like light is focused on the film in a camera. The retina translates that focused image into neural impulses and sends them to the brain via the optic nerve. Occasionally, posterior vitreous detachment, injury or trauma to the eye or head may cause a small tear in the retina. The tear allows vitreous fluid to seep through it under the retina, and peel it away like a bubble in wallpaper.

Good to know hope he isnt out of action long although hes alrdy been

[CutMeMick]

Theres but a few selected boxers who have went on to box well after a retinal tear/injury.

We really don't know how well he is until he gets hit/is in another fight.

Right one Sheep...

Which is why I've been saying it all along.
I strongly believe neither Izzy or Rafa will be the same in the ring.
I'm hope I'm wrong.
