This is going to be a good fight in my opinion. Vargas has faced much better competition but Azat is extremely tough and skilled.

Solid double header. Hopefully this gets promoted well.

After the procedures to treat Rey's terrible cut eyes I can understand why he only takesthis B fighter.... there are better guys out there that could have stood up in line to challenge Rey... I expect them to win at least a UD...

Hovhannisyan just destroyed Ronny Rios

I think Vargas is one of the least appreciated fighters out there. He is scary good.

122 has the chance to get ignorant just like Super Fly did (with or without Riggo). There are some guys who get ****** cracking in that division.
