The stability and competition in his weight class drew him to Fury FC, and while there are still flyweights who are afraid to share the cage with him, the reputation of being the most feared in the deepest flyweight pool outside of the UFC further benefits Vazquez. than even a correct Tapology page.
“I really want to test myself against the best and Fury has a lot of names at flyweight,” Vazquez said. “There are a lot of good guys with good records and that’s where I want to be. The way to get to the big show is to test yourself against the best and prove you’re better than them. I’m going to prove it.
The UFC is the goal, and Vazquez may not be far off, but first and foremost, dominating Fury FC.

Some of the hottest flyweights outside of the UFC are still running through opponents like water, but until Gianni Vazquez is gone, he feels like the Josh Vans and Nick Piccininnis of the world are always battling for second best.
“I like the champ, Van,” Vazquez confessed. “I think he’s good but, to be honest, if you look at the people he’s fought, I’ve fought stronger and better people. I’m more mature, I’m older than him, I’m coming to my peak and I’ve fought a guy like him before. He was the Combate Americas champion at 135 and this guy is like 9-1, he only lost to me, and I said to him, ‘Your time will come, but now is my time.’ And I believe the same with Van. He’s a younger guy, he’s a hungry guy, he’s going to have a good future, but right now it’s my turn.”
The journey to the top for Gianni Vazquez continues at Fury FC 73, ONLY on UFC FIGHT PASS!
