I love Tito v Vargas, both undefeated warriors who gave it their all.

Re: This day in boxing. A look back.
My memory is shit but I remember Vargas inching his way back into that until a blatant Tito nut shot.
When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough

You are correct. Vargas even knocked down Tito. Vargas was special and was on fire during that time.Originally Posted by Memphis

Had to have a look and this day apparently was pretty boring. So far Foreman ko'd Dave Jaco in his comeback oh and Tony Tucker was born. Attached firmly via umbilical cord to Don King

Felt for Vargas after that defeat. He was special indeed and that fight may have taken something out of him.You are correct. Vargas even knocked down Tito. Vargas was special and was on fire during that time.

Vargas was the best young up and coming fighter that I have ever seen and got the title quickly.Felt for Vargas after that defeat. He was special indeed and that fight may have taken something out of him.You are correct. Vargas even knocked down Tito. Vargas was special and was on fire during that time.
Tito did low blow Vargas and maybe he had something in that left hook.
Vargas gave Oscar hell as well but lost that fight too.

Hagler v Mugabi! Also on undercard young bantamweight Richie Sandoval had previously knocked down and knocked out the superb champion Jeff Chandler to capture the wba belt but on this night in 1986 he would fight for the last time. Facing Gaby Canizalez, the brother of Orlando, Sandoval came in having to lose about 10 lbs and had not made the 118 weight limit in his last four fights. He would be dropped twice leading into the brutal 7th where he was dropped 3 more times. Each was nastier than the other and he would lay motionless and actually stop breathing for some time. Rushed out on a stretcher he would require emergency surgery and would thankfully make a complete recovery but forced to retire.
