  • Glen Tapia and Jessie Vargas fighting unsanctioned/exhibitions?

    Purely by coincidence I notice univision is showing Boxeo Tecate, Tapia and Vargas against some bums.

    I figured it was some old show, but then the commentators bring up Tapia's loss to Kirkland "Canelo's next opponent", and even Tapia's upcoming fight in Macao. So I look up Tapia's boxrec and the only thing on schedule is the Dawson fight, as for Vargas, nothing after DeMarco.

    What gives? Are these fights so low profile that boxrec disregards them completely? lol



    Edit:

    Mystery Solved. Old fights, new commentary. Weird, but it is what it is.

    They only really count them if they're sanctioned by somebody I guess.

    If these are just exhibitions.... they're that.

    Did Tapia have headgear on? He has a fight in 2 weeks

      No head gear. It was an 8 rounder though.

      Vargas is apparently fighting at 147, 10 rounder. Think he got dropped early (wasn't paying too much attention).

        Never mind, I figured it out. These are 2013 fights

        Tapia vs Dos Santos
        Vargas vs Omotoso

        Commentary is clearly recent though. What an odd thing to do.

            Of course it was from 2013. Glen Tapia is not 17-0.
