Wait, did Oscar do they Ali shuffle when he knocked Vargas down?

DelaHoya had his hands full in that fight.Vargas used to be good then.The cuts he suffered lost him the fight.

The strange thing is even though Oscar was trained by Mayweather,he took too many shots.

Vargas was a beast starting off

His career started off toooooo fast

Jim Lampley's love for anything Oscar really turns me the **** off but this is one time where I felt his melodramatic self was right on time. That was a great fight.

Actually if you really watch the fight over and look carefully, it wasn't as close as originally thought. Oscar began dominating Vargas about the 6th round on.

Vargas landed some good shots but I think that was more due to the fact that Oscar really wanted to ko him badly and stood right in front of Vargas.

Oscar was landing the straight right and left hook almost at will later on in that fight. He really punished Vargas for 11 rounds.

Oscar's left hook was a thing of beauty, he threw it from a weird angle too. It almost came from his hip, looked like a half upper cut but at the last moment straightened out and he brings the elbow up to get maximum power.

The way he throws it, makes it really hard to see coming.

You DO know Vargas tested positive for steroids after that fight right? That wasn't Vargas in there at all, that was an enhanced, lean ripped machine.

I agree. It was justified for this fight but Lampley's bias for Delahoya was sickening. And Foreman was even worse than Lampley when he called the Delahoya-Quartey fight.

Pretty much. I'm not going to overlook that fact.
