Comments Thread For: Kell Brook-Jessie Vargas Close To Done, 8/27 in Sheffield

Good fight. Vargas has a chance to win a decision, but a Knockout? I don't think so.

How man knockouts does Vargas have remind me? especially at 147?

If he struggled with a semi shot Tim Bradely, how will he beat Kell Brook, who is much bigger, younger, fresher and hits harder?

I really hope Vargas can do something, but i think it will be over within 3 rounds

Honestly you raise valid points, I can't argue there. I just think Kell hasn't fought anyone with his style. Jesse will give him a good fight for the simple fact that he's been in the ring with much better opposition.

People are quickly discrediting or overlooking Vargas in this fight. I like both fighters but I think Jesse is very accurate and hits well enough to hurt Kell. This should be a very close fight. Hope it gets done!

wasn't brook hurt by the ukrainian fighter that KO'd hatton into retirement? can't spell his name. but yeah, i think vargas can hurt brook who doesn't seem very solid

Roided out brook is underestimating Vargas. Vargas has hopped on the juice for the past couple of fights. This fight they're really gonna kick in and he's going to knock brook out.

I think we are being optimistic because Brooks resume is so damn poor that Jessie would be his 2nd best win, possibly best win

But in reality, we have to step back and look at Jessies resume.

I just feel Kell Brook has all the advantages, the home advantage, the ref, the crowd, the size, the power.

I hope Vargas can push Brook, but i just don't see it.

Yes he was and he was also dropped by another euro bum with a 30% KO ratio.

So anything is possible

But Vargas is no puncher, if he was a heavy puncher like Chaves then that might make things interesting

I wonder if there will be drug testing for this bout, people have accused Vargas of roiding in the past. But then again people also accused Brook of taking peds.

There will not be any drug testing and if there is it will be some bull**** urine testing and that's it. You gotta understand, Brook is roided to the ****ing gills.

Vargas under rated? You've all got it twisted! Brooks probably the best WW at the moment,he's the only under rated fighter in this fight. He's going to spark Vargas, this is nothing but a show case fight.

The only time Kell has done proper drug testing was against Porter. They did VADA testing for that fight

and lets be honest Kell didnt look like a "beast" in that fight, he actually looked nervous, and his power wasn't there, which was a bit weird.

Maybe because he wasn't allowed to take his roids?

jessie vargas nearly the best fighter kell brook wouldve ever fought

very sad.....

I'm really thinking that Vargas could embarrass Brook because of all the soft comp that he has been facing over the past 2 years. Brook is looking past Vargas thinking he's an easy mark but he could be in for a surprise.
