Edward Vazquez vs Grimardi Machuca Breakdown

Ft. Worth native, Edward "Kid" Vazquez, is no stranger to the upper echelons of the sport. He has worked his way up to a world title bout not once, but twice. His last chance at gold came against Rafael Espinoza. He come up short but had a good showing and has since gotten another solid win. He plans to pick up another one and continue his upward trajectory in hopes to work his way back into title contention.

Grimardo Machuca came from Venezuela and is currently fighting out of Camden, New Jersey. He started his career with 17 straight wins, 14 of which were by knockout.
