Look how big he is here

Listen to him too, he don't wanna take anymore punches he is punch drunk. It was a huge shame he was rushed but he still fought his heart out no matter who he faced.

[Andre]

When someone states "I would rather swallow my own blood and die in the ring than quit".

That should tell you two things about the fighter:

He wont be thinking about timing and angles as much as he will be intent on coming forward and fighting with his heart to test yours out.

Thats not a good quality to have as the no 1 for a comeback plan if yor not 100 % fit.

If he tries a comeback, he is going to have to be much more mentally measured and know his limits than he was originally.

I agree with you on everything except him being punch-drunk. He was in a major movie not long ago, in which he was pretty good, & I've seen other recent interviews where he talks pretty clearly. I think this is more of a one-off interview where he's a bit inarticulate rather than evidence he's punch drunk.

Vargas does serve as Exhibit A though every time that we talk about a fighter being rushed. Not everyone can be a Tszyu or De La Hoya & be ready for world titles & the opposition that brings by their 15 pro bout

[Nameless]

I hope he doesn't have the Holyfield's disease too, There is enough peoples risking to get hurt around without jumping in the bag, too.

Vargas sounds completely punch drunk, almost on a par with James Toney. The film he made, Alpha Dog was filmed around 3 years ago, and he did sound fine then but now he doesnt. Not only is his speech incoherent and slurred, he also has the blank/confused facial expression shown by fighters who have taken a few too many.

Man I didn't know he was slurring that bad. Yeah his speech is pretty incoherent. He reminds me of Meldrick Taylor in that interview on HBO's legendary nights.

[JT Rock]

IM going to be real naive and wishful here... I hope he's just congested or something, maybe getting over a cold

not even close to the degree of Taylor....

They actually needed subtitiles for one portion of the Taylor interview if I remember correctly

Yeah, but he didn't stop his count to yell at the other guy to get into his corner.

[levi#1BoxingFan]

Anyone who gets beat by Mayorga like he did needs to stay home. What does he weigh now like 275? Some fighters just dont know when to quit.

And I'm sure where Chubbys-Ubbsy is spinning, is probably what Hatton was feeling right afterwards as well.

I've heard him in other interviews as well. And he sounded fine to me. I don't think Vargas is punch drunk. I think he was actually drunk. Or buzzing pretty damn good.
