WelshDevilRob Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Vazquez KOs Priolo By Francisco Salazar at ringside Fan favorite and two-time junior featherweight world champion Israel Vazquez (44-4, 32 KOs) scored a spectacular ninth round TKO over Angel Priolo (30-8, 20 knockouts) in a featherweight fight on Saturday night at the Nokia Theater. Vazquez looked a bit rusty after a 19 month layoff, but it was the “Magnifico” of old in round nine as he battered Priolo to the deck three times. Time of the stoppage was 2:10. Two judges had the bout scored even 76-76 and one judge had Vazquez up 78-74 going into the ninth round. It was Vazquez first bout since March 2008, when he suffered a detached retina in his right eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
