Comments Thread For: Vargas Interested in Cotto or Rios if No Pacquiao

[jjsmyth87]

what in the world is bob thinking you have guys it totally different leages and weight classes fighting each other?? cotto Rios is probably the most intertaining fight of the lot but not the one fans want to see. vargas who ?? he should not be named in anything with either of these guys names here.

talent wise cotto and bradley are the closes to each other. but no one really care to see that fight either.

I would love to see cotto-Rios and I'm sure alot of other people would too. And Vargas is a good fighter. Hes undefeated, a champion, and is rated number 3 lww at boxrec. Hes due a big fight especially after beating DeMarco. I wouldn't want to see pacquiao Vargas but it would be entertaining since they both are come forward fighters. I'd rather see pacquiao mayweather or pacquiao khan, but pacquiao Vargas would be a good fight. Also cotto Bradley would be a huge fight, why would nobody want to see that fight? Those are 2 of the top fighters in boxing.

Not really. Only Manny's blindest fanboys were talking up Vargas. The overwhelming majority on this site (including the more reasonable Manny fans) said the fight was an absolute disgrace.

That said, I agree that Vargas may have bought into his own hype. TR has been trying their best to shove Vargas down the boxing public's throat for years.

Pacquiao Vargas isn't a disgrace, although there are many other exciting fighters pacquiao could face. Hes an undefeated champion, ranked number 3 at boxrec and number 7 ring. He just beat DeMarco who is a top lww, and Vargas is also a come forward fighter. He lacks Ko power but so does mayweather, Tim Bradley, and alot of other top guys.

Stop it dude he has been given gift decisions so if they do match him up with pac ******s like you will say that pac vs Vargas is a disgrace mayweather has enough power to make you respect him fix was in for Bradley win first fight against pac to justify rematch which still wasn't needed blind person knew pac won that

1) I'm not sure which rankings are more meaningless, Boxrec's or Ring's. These days, rankings aren't anything to brag about.

2) DeMarco isn't and has never been a top jr. WW. He was a top 5 LW in one of the weakest LW eras ever.

3) Vargas barely squeaked by Lopez, Narh, Allakhverdiev and Novikov. And no, I don't care how you had him winning all these fights. These are second rate guys, the fact that the fights were even close shows how overhyped Vargas is.

4) Mentioning Vargas in the same sentence as Floyd and Bradley is a serious insult to the latter two.
