HBO Tonight: Kovalev vs Caparello and Rios vs Chaves

[La Cucaracha]

Merciful stoppage there

[Spicoli]

Novikov comes in a Jr middle. He's a mystery and cannot recall seeing him at all?! Hopefully he watched Vargas fight vs Khabib and has a fast start. Vargas has yet to impress

Kovalev vs Caparello follows. Andre Ward calling this. Wonder if he is looking to make this permanent..

[La Cucaracha]

Both guys pretty evenly matched here Vargas maybe slightly ahead after two

[Violent Demise]

He's not a bad fighter, but Vargas just bores me

[La Cucaracha]

He's not a bad fighter, but Vargas just bores me

Yea but the guys he has been fighting doesn't help

[La Cucaracha]

Vargas hurts Novikov early in the fifth but Novikov keeps coming forward even coming on at the end

[La Cucaracha]

This is a pretty good fight so far Vargas starting to land that right but Novikov keeps coming back, good work to the body and land some solid lefts

[Spicoli]

Tough round 5th! Vargas rattled him early but man Vargas looks like he fell apart the last half..feet crossing, unsteady and trying to switch southpaw. Vargas corner lying to him

[Gandalf]

I have Vargas up, but I am supporting the Russian. He seems determined.

[Spicoli]

Those body shots are sapping Vargas, fun gritty scrap. Back and forth

Exactly how many times can Lampley yell Harrrd right hand

[Gandalf]

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

[Violent Demise]

I have Vargas up 4 rounds to 3
