Even though the result of the fight wasn't what he wanted, Vargas was glad that the fight entertained the fans and vows to come out with a win in his next fight.

Hopefully Jesse enjoyed his brief title reign and at least he cashed out by making his first defense vs pac. He's already reached the height of what he's going to accomplish because he's in a stacked division and isn't a top 5 welter.

I would like to see how Vargas does against Amir Khan, Kell Brook or Erroll Spence just to see how good he really is.

He just fought the best and did ok what do you mean how good he really is? Wouldn't you gauge a fighters ability on how he does against the best? I think those fights do hold some merit though.

Ko's khan, outpoint brook who went life in death with Manny's sparring partner porter, gets koed by Spence in a barn burner


Vargas is better than people give him credit for and he improve immensely each fight Manny and both Bradley should avoid this rematch, he's not too far off from that elite class but don't have elite intangibles yet except for heart and power, next match we may see a whole different beast

Yeah he's a good fighter. I think he's a solid B guy. Maybe even B+. I don't think he'll ever be an A guy, though. I just don't think he's naturally gifted enough to be a true A guy.
