Summary
The two stood in front of each other in the first two rounds, with Vasquez countering beautifully with smashing left hooks, every time Acosta tried to go to the body. Big right leads from Vasquez left Acosta gun shy and a bit shell-shocked by the end of the second. In the third and fourth, Vasquez continued to dominate, only by boxing and moving rather than standing and banging. Either way, it was Ricky’s cleaner shots, big rights and solid hooks that were too much for the reluctant Acosta.
