    Well, we could always do a fantasy fight prime for prime but at 147 or 154. =X

    Anyway, Vargas always meh to me. I never really liked him... I think it had something to do with that little hair...

      Well, I never liked him much myself either but dude was a warrior and the "good" part of his career was short, but sweet. Maybe not for him...>__>... He just happened to fight some badder lions. Right place wrong time. If only he was prime right now he' have faired slightly better.

        I think I like Canelo less and would've loved to see Vargas knock him out.

          Btw why is this prime Vargas vs a post-Margarito Cotto
          Sure why not. Post margarito Cotto vs a post Tito Vargas

          Good question & point btw.

          Only thing is the weight difference. That's why I said the Cotto that fought Floyd since it was his best performance at 154.

            I liked Vargas, but there's a reason his career was short. He was too emotional. he got mad and his feelings took over rationality-control. Remaining calm helps keep you in your game plan and helps you think on your feet and adjust quicker.

            Cotto that fought Floyd beats prime Vargas.

              Yea, I kinda missed that. But I think I'd still pick Cotto over Vargas.

                  The Cotto that fought Mayweather was past prime in my opinion. A prime Vargas beats any Cotto and he walks through that Cotto for a KO. Vargas was a real 154 pounder and I don't think Cotto is. To me Vargas was better than Cotto in every way. He was just as fast, a better boxer, more stamina, will power, chin and punching power. Trinidad took the prime right out of Vargas and hurt his ability to take a punch. Before Trinidad Vargas had never even been hurt.

                      Too big for Cotto. Vargas was a beast at 154. At 147 Cotto destroys him, did Vargas ever fought at 147?
