vargas is a good fighter but lost the big fights against hall of famers trinidad and de la hoya, he turns brawler in big fights against top class fighters and as a result he gets picked off to easy in later stages of those fights, but no matter what he has given us some great fights, plenty of colour and charecter so he should be remembered as a entertaining prize fighter who when the going got tough for him in the ring he came out fighting and layed it on the line and with that he brought excitment and ko finishes even though it was him being ko'd
