    Vargas isnt El Feroz, hes extremely undersized at this weight class. I thought he would do well, which he has but liam is just too "Beefy" for Vargas at this weight.

    I don't think it's arguable. He's proven himself as a perhaps rudimentary but very effective fighter and he's made constant subtle improvements to his game.

    Never really been a fan of Beefy but I like his cool grey hair and his pressure style.
    He's a dog who just grinds you down.

    Round 6
    Round all smith, the gas tank is nearing empty for Vargas. Jesse just eating shots all over. Smith like a vintage Greg Valentine needing about 45 min to get warmedcup, getting stronger as the fight goes on
    10-9 Smith
    58-56 Smith

    Round 1 Vargas 10-9
    Round 2 Vargas 10-9
    Round 3 Smith 10-9
    Round 4 Smith 10-9
    Round 5 Smith 10-9
    Round 6 Smith 10-9

    Beefy jabbing him to the ropes, landing overhand rights. Vicious lefts to the body, nasty uppercuts. Vargas is falling apart. Beefy pummelling him with hooks and jabbing the hell out of him.Vargas landed a few combos late, but Beefy's uppercuts and hook were more decisive.

    Veteran move by Vargas....hit Smith low when the ref couldn't see that side.

    I think it's more people overhyping callum but that's died off a bit after ryder and then canelo.

    So you're probably right!

    Yup, grinding you down is the way he does it and it's generally an entertaining fight as a result. I used to dismiss him as some meat and potatoes fighter who's nothing special but I see he is special in how his calculated pressure breaks people.
