Photos: Fernando Vargas-Ricardo Mayorga Presser Brawl!

Who cares if they lost? They will still make for a good machup vs each other. Their losses recently have little to do with how they will look in the ring together. Someone will get KOd...probably Vargas.

I agree. It will still be a good fight...a real barn burner.
The Vargas of old would have easily picked up apart Mayorga and could probably get him out of there under 10 rounds but this version of Vargas will get KO'd rather quickly the first time Mayorga lands flush on his chin.

Vargas is just way to slow and lethargic now. I dont think he will even be able to avoid those big Mayorga bombs.

anyone else want to put points on mayorga? mayorga has nothing to offer in a ring when vargas is in it. vargas is going to humiliate mayorga - hold the **** talk - just make a bet.

of course that wasn't staged, do you really think they're so soul-less to stage a brawl at the expense of kathy duva almost getting pummeled? vargas, you can just TELL isn't one for taking kindly to the **** that'll be coming out of mayorga's mouth, i remember thinking during the tito / mayo build up that this is something some men, like vargas, would never accept.

judging from the pictures, i was definitely right in my assumption about vargas. he comes up short in some big fights, he will NOT in this one, but vargas is a guys guy.

hopefully they put mayorga in as a favorite, i'm trying to make some money.

Of course it's staged. Kathy was never in any real danger. Nor was anyone else in the room. You know damn well that an altercation during a press conference is a sure fire way to get interest generated. If it had been a slow, boring press conference, no one would want to see it or the fight assuming the fight would also be as uninteresting.

And you damn well that no one would be willing or able to jump into the middle of a couple of proffessional fighters like that unless they knew for sure that things would not get as serious as they'd look.

Its common sense. It's all about interest, and interest is all about dollars.

They may not be scripted, but the altercations are planned. I'd be left nut on it.

Funny you guys talk about how fat Vargas is, because he was twice that size not too long ago.

Sweet banner Lightweight...did you do it yourself?

[Super_Lightweight]

Nah Kingroy did it for me (Hyperion).

Look, if you see the video of the scrap at the press conference it looks very real. There's no reason to think it was staged.

And yes, I will bet on Mayorga to win this fight.

No way that was staged. Mayorga turns into an idiot during press conferences to try and agitate his opponents and Vargas is not one to take exception to it. Both guys are natural born fighters...

It is all about the dollars but it's not like it was planned. It's expected of Mayorga to do something ****** like that and for Vargas to fire back.
