GREAT fight Mayorga Vs Vargas

[ICB]

I loved the fight. I think Mayorga would have KO'ed him had he managed to sustain the pressure. Glad Mayorga won. Hope he and Forrest fight again to keep 154 alive!

Mayorga was pretty controlled and that was impressive. He would do well at 154.

I heard a rumor Mayorga vs Forrest 3 could be on the cards.

So does Oscar finally get credit for not being a washed up version of his old self? Its funny how good everybody said he was when he fought Mayorga, yet they said he was old, and a younger version of him would have beaten MAyweather after their fight.

Was vargas out of balance when he was caught or was he really stunned. his legs look like they suffled right at the point he sticks his chin up and mayorga catches it with a right hook/overhand. Vargas then rolls around the canvas, both of his legs even goes up as if he was caught with a huge jumping punch from mayorga.

Ballsy and fun but Vargas made Mayorga look better than he was/is ,mistakes turning square and going down,unfit,slow reactions made the winner look better to some than he really is.

vargas said that the first knockdown was a slip, but i think he stumbled from a punch, mayorga should fight verron forest

it wont be a boring fight now that we kno that mayorga can still ko

[CutMeMick]

too bad he didnt finish it with a knockout, and too bad the judges scored it so close

i didnt think it was that close...lol

who thought vargas would win?

I have an issue with people using the word 'Great', I just feel people throw that word around like nothing.....
Question.
Was it really a GREAT fight?
Not sure what you view a fight as being great but IMO it was far from being great.

Entertaining yes, great no.

Totally agree Mick. I thought it was an exciting fight...for what it was.2 fighters far past their best,a match with little significance and the winner fighting far past his best weight class.Vargas made Mayorga look better than he was,simply because Mayorga was not as far past his best as Vargas(who looked horrible imo)

[Hulk]

Mayorga won a big fight finally, thats all I care about. And he learned how to box a little finally too, making him more dangerous.

I agree. I thought it was a good fight but not great. Vargas was pretty slow throughout the fight and shuffled about really. Reminded me a bit of 'asthma man' shannon briggs and the way he shuffles around the ring. Mayorga surprised me with his effort over the 12 rounds but vargas didn't make him work too hard. I actually thought the Cintron v Feliciano fight was better. Oh and yes I thought vargas was going to win, but not for any particular reason i thought his boxing skills would be the difference but couldn't really split them.

Looked to me like he was caught backing up. A bit lazy really for someone who has boxed so much. The same way as Judah was caught by Tszyu but without the same result.

Yup, great fight and great entertainment from two guys who are really getting on a bit. Some of the pre-fight stuff was unsavoury but afterwards they're all friends again and it added to the spice of the fight, which really had some venom in it.

And they both threw some huge punches, with Mayorga deservedly taking it in the end.

it was a damn satisfying fight. I had a cigarette afterwards. Almost as good as sex.
