Comments Thread For: Erik Morales: Vargas Proved He Can Compete at Top Level

I can see that fight being made if bradley becomes full wbo 147 champ it could be a unification fight....

Its funny that this refereeing farce probably kept Vargas' career more relevant than if he had 8 seconds to try to finish Tim Bradley.

LMAO! This is sadly true. Vargas is not on par with the top ten in the division. I can't see him troubling any of those guys, including Bradley in a rematch.

Vargas clearly was never really hurt by Bradley and I think he had a plan on trying to land a sneaky punch but it was too little too late, but he can clearly hang with Bradley and keep it competitive, so there is some truth to what Morales is saying even though Vargas definitely lost. He didn't fold , he went the distance and he rocked Bradley more then just in the last round.

the only thing that vargas proved was the fact that anything can happen in boxing at anytime. other than that. he got beat up through out the fight

Its funny how Vargas did better against Tim Bradley than Adrien broker did against either maidana or Shawn porter, yet there are many on here who make excuses for broker and still think he has what it takes to compete at the highest level while saying ******ed stuff like Vargas should retire. Each and every round of Vargas vs. Bradley was competitive, while broker only made a handful of rounds competitive against porter.

Yeah....No.

Vargas wasn't getting beat up at all. I'm a Bradley fan not a Vargas fan, but Bradley only outworked Vargas a little more in most rounds, definitely wasn't a dominant performance, and Vargas was certainly robbed of the chance to win that fight in the last 8 seconds

[Tobi.G]

Yeah right....with his impressive loss, Vargas proved he can compete at world-level....Funny ****.

[Ringlife]

I gave Vargas a couple of rounds, but I thought Bradley pretty much dominated the fight, if Vargas fights like he did in the 12th round I guess he can pick up some wins against C level fighters at 147 or 140, Morales was giving him great advice in the corner, and Vargas couldn't fellow through with it.

[mathed]

No, he didn't. He was completely outclassed.

I agree....Bradley was just teeing off on him at times.
