On February 25th, Fernando Vargas and Shane Mosley do battle at the Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas. Unfortunately the bout is scheduled to take place in 2006 and not 2002.
Vargas, 28, of Oxnard, California, has fought only four times in the last three and a half years. He won all four, two by KO, but has not been the spectacular "El Feroz" that made him one of the most entertaining fighters of recent years.
Vargas' decline in activity began in September of 2002 after he tested positive for a banned substance following his loss to Oscar De La Hoya. Many believed that the time away from boxing could have actually been a blessing, Fernando had wanted to get Oscar in the ring for so long that many experts wondered how Vargas would react if he lost. Not only was Vargas beaten, he was stopped in 11. [details]
