Agustin Quintana spent the past several rounds growing braver and braver. Emiliano Vargas was finally able to make him pay in the 8th round. The unbeaten second generation boxer pinned Quintana in a corner late in the frame and then again along the ropes in the closing seconds.
The sustained punishment was enough for Quintana to be briefly examined by the ringside physician prior to the start of the 9th round.
