How did Vargas beat Winky?

[ANDROID_DOES]

I've never seen the fight, so I don't know how it went down. Winky has definitely proven he is the better fighter of the two, so can someone please enlighten me as to how it went down?

winky hasn't proven ****. Vargas was as good of a young fighter as there has ever been in this sport. I put him second behind mike tyson. He was mis-managed. Vargas had great potential and was living up to it. They made a mistake by bringing him up too fast. He had great wins at such a young age he beat campas, raul marquez, winky, and ike quartey all before the age of 22. After that people were wanting to see him in with the big boys. there was no need to fight anyone else as he had already shown that he is one of the best fighters in the division even at his young age. Then they matched him up with felix trinidad in a much anticipated fight. Trinidad's power was too much for vargas. But Vargas gave tito all he can handle!! Vargas i believe was the first person to knock tito down. Somethign de la hoya and pernell whitaker couldnt do. Also the vargas fight was alot more exciting than the pernel and dlh fight. If you want to see a vargas fight watch the quartey fight and watch the tito fight. Even though he lost to tito that fight showed the power, the aggresiveness and warrioness of fernando vargas. I believe he beat winky right he was beating him to the punch. Winky had his moments but vargas was young and aggresive and winky always cries after he losses.

This is the problem with this fight. Vargas really upped his work rate as the fight went on, but a lot of punches were landing on Winky's ear muffs. Some people count those blows, others like me dont. So I had Winky winning 7-8 rounds.

This fight had some excellent body punching by both guys too.

tito was knockdown plenty of times before the vargas fight.oba knocked him down.

He "beat" Winky because Winky took his foot off the gas down the stretch and Vargas was able to outhustle him.

Cosign that...You forgot to mention the LOADED GLOVES of Trinidad as well........ DLH had the only credible win over him and thats because he faded down the stretch.....I agree.. he was definitely pushed too far and too fast.

[ferocity]

Youth and potential. and he wasted his potential, but he was a warrior so imo it was worth it. Vargas was on top of his **** back then..and here I was hugging David reids nuts circa 97

LOL, most wont admit so much. "Your a credit to the humen race."

That's the way I saw it, although when the fight was over I thought Winky was going to get his hand raised.

jesus.wheres the proof of the loaded gloves.give me a link.no bull**** gossip mongering from hopkins people who tried to do what billy costello tried to do to arguello vs trinidad.show me proof.

I seem to remember Winky taking the 12th anyway. Vargas just upped his work rate. Winky was still landing the cleaner blows. Especially is body punches.

[-Hyperion-]

wow..winky lost 2 of the last 3 rounds(lets forget that winky forced the action the first 9...) i guess that loses you a fight you won 7-8 clear rounds....
