Even if he loses, he has 10 years of prime ahead of him. In fact, there's an argument he's not yet even in his prime?

He could be a Vargas though.

I honestly don't think he's anywhere near as good as Vargas, but that's not fair to say yet as Fernando did peak so early. Most fighters who mature physically like that don't ever fight the big opponents before they burn out or lose focus etc, Vargas really was a tremendous young champion.
