[Alpha]

3-0 Vargas.

[Kirkland Laing]

Mikey Garcia not looking very good here. Chasing the paydays isn't working out very well for him.

[Alpha]

4-0 Vargas.

Feels like Mikey is juuust starting to land the harder shots but maybe I'm off. *hic. Vargas keep it tight and purposeful.

[Spicoli]

Mikey is going to clean him up! Vargas on roller skates after that kd

[Spicoli]

Mikey beginning to punch through him with zero regard for return.

Mikey winning. Vargas tough. Wish Dazn would invest in ring card girls and a color other than grey and black.

Ring card girls for a heavyweight championship fight last week were a fucking disgrace. And they had clothes on to add insult to injury.

Garcia going to get this. I still don't think he's going to do anything at this weight except get a payday or two.

Scary thing is he can now say he beat a top five ranked 154 . Brian Kenny going out of his way to talk this up 'close down the stretch' but I think Garcia swept last six. Garcia really stationary now

[Kirkland Laing]

He could probably make lightweight comfortably and there are some great fights there for him but he's after the money. He sat out was it about two years of his career so it's fair to say he's single minded about what he wants out of boxing.

I raked him over the coals thinking he could beat and compete with Spence. It felt like taking shortcuts 'looking for greatness' leaving those exact opportunity's at better weights. But he was in there solid tonight and looked very solid late on with selection and punch. He needs to tread lightly though as he sits right in front of guys now.

[imp]

Why didn’t he face Loma at the time?

[Alpha]

Had an emergency and had to go.

I had it 8-4 Vargas (+ KD for Garcia).

115-112 Vargas.

Garcia eyes Pacquiao after beating Vargas

Mikey Garcia wants to fight Manny Pacquiao after a unanimous-decision win over Jessie Vargas in Texas on Saturday.

Garcia was awarded the bout 116-111, 116-111 and 114-113 after controlling the second half of the fight – for the WBC diamond welterweight title – at the Ford Center at The Star.

The American, back at welterweight after the first loss of his professional career against Errol Spence Jr. last year, knocked down Vargas in the fifth round.

Garcia is eyeing either a bout with Pacquiao or a rematch with Spence, who holds the WBC and IBF welterweight titles.

"I have great options," he told DAZN.



"I'm ready to get back in with the best, I would love to get an opportunity to fight Manny Pacquiao, I want a rematch against Errol Spence.

"It would be a tremendous fight, I'm a little bit better now at this weight class."

Pacquiao, 41, last fought in July last year, beating Keith Thurman to claim the WBC welterweight title.

Meanwhile, Roman 'Chocolatito' Gonzalez claimed the WBA super-flyweight title with a ninth-round TKO of Khalid Yafai in Texas.
