How does he fare in 12-round encounters at Bantam with peak versions of Vazquez & Marquez?

Id say he fairs well against both in his Prime, Lionel was a great boxer with good movement. His left hook was as good as any IMO. I think he takes a UD if were talking roses Prime.

They'd both know they'd been in a scrap.
Make it the traditional 15 rounds and it gets really interesting.

No definitive take on either fight?
The clash with Marquez would be the more intriguing, IMO (though not necessarily the more exciting). Marquez had more to offer a fighter like Rose.
