Team Bone"we were robbed in Vazquez fight"

New York, NY (May 31, 2016)- The manager of junior welterweight contender Erick Bone feels that his fighter was not given a fair shake this past Saturday night against former IBF Lightweight champion Miguel Vazquez in San Antonio
.

The bout headlined a Premier Boxing Champions card on FS1, was scored in favor of Vazquez by tallies of 99-91, 97-93 and 96-94.

Bone did well when countering and when he decided to force the action, landed the harder shots.

Bone was very effective with the right hand showed good foot work and landed some good body shots.

"Erick won that fight on Saturday night," said Bone's manager Eli Mackay.

"It was unimaginable that Vazquez won that fight and for one judge to only give Erick only one round just shows that the judges had their mind made up on what they wanted to see. The only problem is that Vazquez did not do what they wanted to see and it is a shame that a fighter like Erick, who has fought three world champions in his last three bouts (two on short notice) gets deprived of a breakthrough win that could help set up his career."

"Erick clearly beat Vazquez to the punch all night and he fought a good fight Vasquez barely did anything. These type of out comes even on main event fights hurt the sport"

Bone of Manabi, Ecuador has a record of 16-4 with eight knockouts.

I didn't see it, but I have a hard time believing this is true. Vazquez is usually the one on the sh*t end of robberies.

It was a bit closer than the cards say, I'll give it that. But Vazquez clearly won off of control of the center of the ring and pressure. He brought the fight the entire time. Clear Vazquez win, by a slight, but noticeable margin.

As far as Vazquez calling out Broner. Broner probably fights better off his back foot than Bone and I can see Broner winning with a counter punch style and better jabs.
