    Did karma cost Vargas against Bradley?

    Did karma bite Vargas in the butt against Bradley for him being gifted two consecutive robbery wins that destroyed the lives of two up and coming undefeated fighters?


    Jesse Vargas clearly lost in back-to-back fights against Khabib Allakhverdiev and Anton Novikov and both men got robbed with DE****ABLE scorecards. The 117-111 scorecard against Novikov was criminal.


    Now he's complaining about the referee against Bradley? Good riddance. Dude should have 3 losses

      Rewatch both fights, both fights were in Vegas and neither men had a shot to win based on the judges. The judges already had their scorecards filled out before the fights.


      Khabib and Novikov both clearly won those fights, IMO. Khabib started off slow and wouldn't let his hands go but then won the rest of the fight easily.

            Josesito Lopez, Wale Omotoso, Ray Narh, Khabib Allakhverdiev, Anton Novikov.

            Vargas was extremely lucky not to lose his unbeaten record. These fights were close, but it's no coincidence that they all went his way.

                Vargas is no judge so how is he to blame for scorecards

                  Arum would probably have loved that too, so he could feed us the rematch.

                  Would've been a bigger controversy if Vargas had been awarded the bout.

                    There's no such thing as karma. Jessie was on his way to losing anyway.

                    In fact this was a very good thing for him, he now has a built in an excuse for a fight he was getting slaughtered in. He should be thanking Pat Russell.

                    What Tim did to Vargas was truly a master class.
