Comments Thread For: Jessie Vargas Emerges as Possible Fall Opponent For Jeff Horn

[GhostofDempsey]

It's either going to be Vargas or Crawford. I'm sure Horn would much prefer Vargas. Then again, I'm sure Crawford would prefer to fight Vargas for the title instead of rough, dirty Horn.

Either way, Vargas/Horn is a good fight.

why hasnt vargas fought all year?

Normally I give two points for hometown advantage, but after that Pac fight, Horn gets four points in Oz. Jessie is too pedestrian for me, he waits too much and depends on countering. Jessie will have a hard time countering a guy who only throws 8 punches a round. Horn by hometown facilitation.

decent enough fight, id favour vargas. Pac beat vargas but i thought he beat horn too, so not reading too much into that.

Idk about the full period of time, but I know there is a dispute between Vargas & Top Rank currently thats been going on for at least 3-4 months & that might be the whole reason he's not fought in that time for all I know.

Vargas about to add another L to his career if he takes this fight... Horn is the truth man, poor jessie about to get stung and Horn bout to pull off yet another upset. #GetStung

4 points? horn lost 8-4 to pac so def more than 4. 6 points on 2 cards and a billion on the other. this isnt how corruption works. it doesnt matter if he needed 2 points or 20 points. he was getting the win and thats that. same with ward-kovalev. the judges just had to give kov one more round...round 10 came along...kov dominated...ward got the round.

This is a very good, entertaining fight and makes sense for Vargas to get another shot at the big one.

Horn v Vargas should hopefully lead to the winner facing TC...thing is, who will the latter fight now? especially with Pac rumoured to fight next year.

This is a very Dangerous fight for Horn, Vargas is very good man this is going to be a top level fight man good scrap, fight of the year.

If it's in Brisbane, Vargas will need a KO to win.
