Vargas only 29..

With only 34 fights and yet he's obviously a shell of his former self and is retired. How does this happen? I mean, 50 years ago 29 was considered old for a fighter but that was usually because a 29 year old fighter in the 50s usually had at least 50-60 fights, sometimes even more than that. Did Vargas just have a crazy lifestyle that took a toll on his body or what?

 

And he also talks like Don Corleone..scary..too much punches to the head

 

I believe so I mean I saw some pictures of him when he was absolutely obese around 280lbs I think that is just insane, he obviously took roids too and he had a crazy lifestyle as well. Some of his fights were wars and he took hard shots, traded with Trinidad, DLH, Mosley, all of it took toll on him. He is a grandpa in the ring.

 

yeah roids took a toll plus he had gotten wrecked quite a few times .....

 

Steroids, out-of-the-ring lifestyle, and the wars he has been in have all taken their toll.

Yeah i guess that makes sense. But Gatti had a pretty wild life outside of the ring and some wars inside of it and had a longer career than Vargas. And Jake LaMotta was known to not take proper care of himself between fights and had 106 bouts.

 

Roids and partying. Dude got ****ing fat.

 

Trinidad happened.

Man just look at the 12th round, the last right hand that Vargas absorbed before the fight was called.

 

The wars, the roids and the fat happend!

 

You are missing the Obvious.. After Tito...Vargas was done or should I say never the same

 

Tito happened.

I really believe it all started with that left hook 20 seconds into that first round.
