Thread: Vargas to retire in sept..

after the beating he's taken he should retire...i agree that he was rushed into the big fight with tito he wasn't ready but nevertheless he would have been beaten any..but tito is the one that really ruined him...much like he ruined mayorga and joppy

He'll retire AFTER Mayorga runs wild all over his ass. Mayorga gonna Knock him the FUCK out!!!!

I though the guy already gave up boxing and seriously persuing acting business.

He's kinda cool in Alpha Dog.

vargas is still relitave ypong, he needs time off to think things out, i dout they we will never see him again after the mayorga fight, he has the skills to be a champion, but he needs to get the mental side of boxing down,

We should do a sweepstake if he retires...........

12 months from his last fight, who will be fatter Vargas or Duran?

It will be close I'll say that much

I heard that Justin Timberlake acted like a real bitch in that movie, perfect role for him.

And chosenone, I don't think Vargas has it physically anymore. His back is messed up, he's almost shot from all the ring wars, and he's just not as quick on his feet as he once was. I don't think he can be a real champ anymore.

I'd say he should get out now... if it wasn't for the Mayorga fight cause that's a fight I really wanna see. It will be fun the whole way.

I'm gonna have to go see that fight live I think. Ricardo Mayorga is the man.

It would be much better if Vargas just retired right now.

Thats what I want to see too!!

Vargas lost just about all the big fights he was in , over rated for sure , i think Quartey even beat him

one of the most overrated guys in boxing ever is Mayorga. He beat Vernon Forrest but then who did he beat after? Spinks beat him and Spinks is seen as good but not exceptional. Mayorga has diminished since his fights with Tito and Oscar, and even then he was not that great. I think Vargas has a good chance to beat him.

I agree with you. I feel it is time for Vargas to retire. After all punishment that Trinidad gave him he was not the same. Actually, I have to say that David Reed never was the same after fighting Trinidad at 154. Did you watch Vargas come back fight after Trinidad with Wilfredo Rivera. Rivera is a boxer from Puerto Rico who made the fight of his life with with Pernell in their first fight and stolen by the judges of waht seemed a victory for Rivera, but he was also declining badly after fighting De La Hoya and Mosley (lost both by TKO). Rivera did not have a KO punch and reached Vargas with a straight right hand that sent him KO'd to the canvas. I think that the person who was more surprised was the same Rivera who connected and hurt Vargas, but did not attack a totally KO Vargas and allowing him to recover and eventually win by TKO. Just watching how Rivera could hurt Vargas there was a lot to think. Definitely Trinidad crushed his career.

Don't be an idiot. Mayorga was the first to KO Andrew "six heads" Lewis and take his belt. Then he knocked out Vernon Forrest, and beat him again in the rematch, proving it was no fluke. Then he took on Spinks and fuking beat him too, but got robbed big time on the cards. He pressed the fight much much more than Jermain Taylor did and for sure deserved to keep his titles. After that he defeated the man who Spinks lost to then beat for his title at welterweight, Michelle Picarilo, and he dropped him three fukin times and whipped his ass for the WBC. Jr. MW title. In between that he went to war with Tito Trinidad and got his ass knocked out. Finally he lost to Oscar in an embarassing ass whippin. Overall I'd say he is a pretty damn good fighter losing only to the VERY best in the world, and at weight classes he did not belong in.

i liked the guy
