    Vargas did wonderfully in that fight. Low blows took a lot out of him and without the low blows he may have won. But Trinidad was still a veteran he knew where he was in trouble and used all he could. Wasn't fair by any stretch but Vargas did himself proud. However if Trinidad didnt ruin his career, losing to Oscar and then testing positive for roids after did.

    Vargas was a quality fighter and Tito really finished his career. It was a terrible beating, he should have stayed down after the first round, but Vargas is a warrior.

    I thought it was a 50/50 fight going in, and Vargas showed tremendous heart and courage to fight back after that first round. However, after that nightmare opening round I never had the feeling he was going to win the fight, even after the 4th when he dropped Tito, just seemed like the typical Tito concentration lapse to me. In hindsight it was too soon for Vargas, but as you say, after the Winky fight he showed he could hang in good company. I would have liked to have seen him against Harry Simon at 154, who I think is one of the biggest wastes of talent I've witnessed.

    it was a great fight. trinadad landed 4 low blows. that'll take a lot out of even the greatest fighter... and if you factor in the illegal handwraps tito used then you know vargas had heart. i thought he was gonna win. it was a great fight.

    it was 2 low blows, one that Vargas should have won an Academy Award for, and Trinidad's wraps weren't illegal in Vegas, don't confuse Trinidad's Sr.'s wrapping method with the atrocity that Margarito did

    you reposting your original post doesn't change the fact that it was 2 low blows and that Trinidad wasn't wearing illegal wraps, because the wrapping method is legal in Vegas
