Under what circumstances could Fernando Vargas have beaten Felix Trinidad?

I feel like Vargas was winning in the fourth round when he knocked down Tito. As Tito was getting mauled after the knockdown, he punched Nando in the balls. He should have been disqualified imo.

Vargas got hurt early.

I think he could have won both with odlh or Trinidad with a lil more seasoning. With better knowledge of the nuances of boxing. Spoiling, defense...tweaking his defense, knowing when to clinch and pace himself, more head movement

He already beat ike quartey n winky wright at such a young age

Vargas was made for Tito.

maybe if Tito was drugged and had one arm...then Vargas might have had a chance

[Mr.Fantastic]

No suspect wraps and no low blows.

What's that? I can't understand what your saying with Tito's pole in your hole.

Not possible. He was a level below the top guys and was very fortunate to get that bogus decision over winky.

When his mouth was chock full of water while receiving instructions, he should spit in Tito's face and then clocked him with a hook-cross. Except Tito would've gotten up. Maybe run out of the ring after and claim victory?

The Wright fight was super close so not a robbery or anything. And Wright lost the last two rounds. Also, to be fair, Vargas was not in very good condition for that fight -- mental and physical. I thought that was an overlooked performance by Nando.
