whay vargas you ask??

Mabe because he was a 3 time champion!!!

maybe because he was the youngest Professional boxing champion at 21yrs old!!!!
Also vargas never quit!!! and because of the way he lost that makes him who he is today!!!

Name another fighter you know that has been Knocked down 5 times in one fight and got up 6

FERNANDO EL FEROZ VARGAS!!!!! If we had more fighters with heart like vargas boxing would not be in bad shape!!!!

Actually, the youngest champion ever in any weight class in all of history was Wilfred Benítez at age 17. Just thought you'd like to know, spammer.

I think it's easy to judge a boxer by what we see of them in the ring,but needless to say,we don't know what's he done out of the ring for others .
Don't go thinking that they gave him the star just because he lost to some of the best fighters in the business.

If you look at it, he wasn't the one who was knocked out by a body shot,layed there til the count of 20 ... then all smiles in the interview ....

He wasn't the fighter who rocked Mayweather but couldn't finish him and lost in points ....


He's the fighter who got knocked down 5 times in 1 fight,2 by low blows but still kept getting up .... He's the fighter who fights with Mexican pride at all times,not like others who try to make it seem they've been like him all the time .......

He's the one who's help in charity,stayed out of lime lite to provide for his family and is bringing up young talent from the ground up in boxing.... not already established boxers who are looking to have more greed.


Got to give the fighter credit for what he did and didn't do .....

Not the most respected nor well liked boxer,but he was given the star by votes of people who saw what he stands for ..... ALL PRIDE & GLORY !



THATS WHY HE GOT DA STAR !!!

Ur entitled to your opinion but popular consensus is that others are more deserving. I agree. I could care less of how he carried himself outside the ring.
