Thread: HBO Tonight: Kovalev vs Caparello and Rios vs Chaves

It's a good fight. 4-3 Vargas, but I am seeing back and forth close rounds.

Good round for Novikov

Vargas is just taking these constant chin swiveling touches , legs look worse and worse

Another close round Vargas got it slightly

Vargas looks to be sagging somewhat. Still close, but he's having a tough time.

Better workrate there from Vargas, 5-4 Vargas.

A handful of close rounds in this fight, I wonder if that will reflect on the judges cards

Honestly think its Novikovs to lose if he stepped up the pressure, but he is eating that straight right...WTF is Bayliss doing

Novikov will not win a fight this close in this arena.

Your probably right but Novikov is stating his case

Neck and neck fight, Vargas just seems negative to me now though. Whoever wants it most.

Indeed

Good scrap! Vargas looks like a drained guy who lacks the pop and defense to go up in weight. He better take some selfies with that trinket belt for memory. Both gutted it out but I think Vargas has lost his last two fights...but he wont.

Good, solid, gruelling fight Vargas but extremely close

I don't know. Either man can have that and I want to see a rematch.
