vargas put up a valiant effort and gave dlh resistance, but he didn't make dlh go "life and death" nor did he push dlh to his limit. no one says that dlh left a piece of himself in the ring with vargas like they say the raf marq / izzy vasquez trilogy.
so vote and comment. what do you think. did vargas give dlh "hell" before the stoppage???
That may be,but it wasn't that night!!
c'mon man, dlh's right hand is garbage, always was, always will be
i don't consider vargas a b or c level fighter.
he was a solid a fighter in terms of skills.
B to C level boxer post tito.
A- level boxer pre tito
vargas put up resistance, but it was your standard dlh fight against a b to c level boxer. nothing more.

haven't seen the fight in a while but from what i remember they were alternating rounds.
1 round oscar would control it in the center , next round vargas would pound him on the ropes.
until the end of course when oscar caught him and then finished him off in the next round.
i say oscar took some lumps. vargas was incredibly strong in there , steroid jokes aside.

Vargas & his secret weapon was looking too strong for DLH,but then them right hands started to find a home on Vargas's head &............!!
dlh's right hand is a joke.

It was really the most impressed I ever was with Oscar. Vargas did well but to me Oscar put it on him.
I guess you could call that putting him through hell because it was a tough fight but Oscar gave way more than he got so it is hard for me to really say he got put through hell.

Yes he did. But he was also using PED's for that fight. I don't think that fight "ruined" Vargas because Trinidad already took a lot out of him. The Delahoya fight took most of what was left of Vargas.
He won a few rounds, but it was more like oscar gave up a couple of rounds. He landed a few good shots but a lot were not connecting.
Ike gave him a tougher fight IMO
Definitely agree. That was life and death for Oscar right there, especially considering what was waiting for him with a win over Ike.
I think Vargas for the 1st half of the fight was putting the pressure on Oscar, but he weathered the storm and starting catching Vargas with those left hooks. Oscar dug deep for that win. IMO one of his top 3 best wins of his career. I remember the build up was crazy. I wanted Oscar to whip Vargas' ass so bad lol.
Really great fight though.

its in the poll answer.
imho quartey gave dlh a tougher fight
yes, he did. But your idea of hell isn't mine so what is the point of this thread? Maybe you should watch the fight...just saying.
