    Could Fernando Vargas have been better than DLH or Trinidad??

    If Vargas was manged properly could he have become a great fighter like DLH or Tito? He had the skills and heart to be great, but was rushed. Dont mean to bring old up old stuff, but I truly believe that he could have finished tito in the 4th rd. He was a baby then...what if he would have fought him at the age of lets say 26? He was up on Mosley during their first fight and that wasnt even the shell of his old self. Thoughts?

      Yes vargas should of waited at least 18 more months! and went after fights with tony ayala jr, jose luis lopez, william joppy, david reid and keith holmes. Then he would of been older, stronger and a more rounded fighter. Then he could of beat tito and oscar

        Vargas was always overrated. So no. A better question would be "Could Bojado have been better then Vargas?"

          Vargas would have been a better fighter if they had waited to fight Tito,or avoided him altogether!!

              Regardless if vargas was rushed two things would have held vargas back were

              the weight that he would put on between fights


              and his bad back

                Would he have been better if they groomed him properly? Maybe. Would he have been better than DLH and Trinidad? Never.

                  Why not? Tito at 21 vs Vargas at 21? Who was better?
