Bob Arum "I want Jese Vargas vs Danny Garcia! Al lets make it happen!"

Source...???

 

Arum talks a nice game about being willing to negotiate but the reporter failed to ask him if he's willing to let his fighters appear on PBC supported networks. Obviously the televised network has been a major sticking point in the past and I don't see that issue all of a sudden being any easier to resolve.

 

It would be very odd if this ended up happening now - especially as the icebreaker on the cold war - given how much this match-up was talked about six years ago when both were unbeaten prospects on the rise @ 140lbs.

It has been a long road since then, both taking very different paths..

 

I mean, it will be utterly meaningless (neither is doing anything important ever again) but it will be fun. :good

 

...I was about to pipe up indignantly that not all of those guys are past it, but honestly, there isn't a single one I can say isn't.

 

Dude Garcia would literally separate his head from his shoulders with 1 left hook.

 

...and how would you have felt about this if Vargas hadn't left TMT? :yep

 

Leaving TMT was the worst decision of his life.

 

I hate to agree that Porter could smash all those guys as in their prime some were much better than him but they are probably all that far gone now that he could, being the younger fresher bigger man.

 

This. World Kid was an unproven prospect. No way would Vargas be that aggressive against Garcia and not pay for it.
