Quartey has always been a favorite of mine as well. Quartey had been on the sidelines for over a year. I think the rust is what led to him being out jabbed. The 9th round was a great round.
Agreed with everything you said plus i think Vargas was a little too big for Quartey, because this was at Jr Middleweight. One thing i never understood though is why Quartey retired for 5 years after the Vargas fight ??
