    Oscar De La Hoya vs. Fernando Vargas

    Not quite as great of a fight as Trinidad vs. Vargas, but still a great one regardless.

    Considering how awful he looked in his previous two fights,Vargas put in a really good performance here.One might speculate that it was the roids,but Mosley did the same thing against De La Hoya - and he looked like sh^t.


    De La Hoya showed terrific handspeed in this and the Campas fight.

        I haven't seen this fight since it originally aired. I remember it being a back and forth fight till the end. Good scrap.

          Speculation confirmed, there's no way the guy would have been in that type of shape without the steroids he used.
