    Default Fernando Vargas

    Does anyone think he can continue? Would 160 or 168 be options. Does anyone care.

    i dunno its always a shame to see a good fighter lose so much, and you feel like he might quit, but i doubt that he'd quit without a nice win first! also he has a huge ego! so thats more reason to believe he wil carry on fighting, i kinda like the guy in some ways cos no matter how stupid some of the decisions he makes are you cant argue that he hasnt fought the best! its just he simply just picks the best, and styles make fights and he doesnt calculate reward over risk he just goes for it, and i respect him for that, but thats why hes become a punching bag for the best, see trinidad was a good fight and it showed you he could hang with the best and winky was a good win for him and a good choice, but oscar and mosely werent. he should have made smarter decisions then he wouldnt be in this situation.

    Vargas looked a bit weight drained in the Mosley fight and his legs looked gone. he could be more effective at 160 but his chin may not hold up. I DO think that he could beat someone like Abraham.

    We'll see how Abraham does against Miranda who has an almost similar style but Vargas had a more deceptive defense in his days

    I seriously believe Fernando needs to call it quits and enjoy time off with his wife and boys. He's been a finished fighter since the Trinidad fight and Mosley just made that much clearer.

    i dont feel the trinidad fight should have finished him, because in all fairness tito is just better than him and it was an awesome fight that he did well in!
    i just feel it was how he dealt with his first defeat to tito which would either make or break him and he obviously lost something when he lost

    And the way he dealt was to lose all form and become a one dimensional fighter that goes for the KO instead of breaking his opponents down

    Not that the loss finished him but all the blows and punishment he took was enought to finish him off. Hence he doesnt look anything the Fernando of old.

    In addition to always being exposed to the left hook.

    i love the way that trinidad used to run upto the ropes and get on em n interact with the crowd and then have to run back in a cheeky way when they got up it looks so great when he runs back for second knockdown of vargas!

    Vargas got too good too early and lost his way, although he did terrific during his first loss, against Tito, if he hadn't took so many low blows maybe he would have won, but really I think he lost his will to train.
    Remember the good old days, we miss you Marco!
