There's no way Vargas will beat Bradley without a robbery. There's just no way, he doesn't have the power to stop him, his technique is extremely low level at the elite level, and the guy has arguably robbed 2 of his last 5 opponents. Is it worth putting all my v cash on Bradley, would they actually rob him and derail some other big fights they could make for him for a known fraud in vargas?
Watched the Barth vs DeMarco fight on the weekend. The fact that Vargas struggled against such a washed up DeMarco recently suggests he absolutely has no chance against Bradley. After seeing some judge scoring the Broner vs Porter fight 112-114, I would certainly have doubts about a potential robbery.
im so tempted to go all in, it's such an easy pick. would hbo really do that to him, does vargas have the drawing power to actually warrant fking with Timmy's career and other potential big money fights? I get the undefeated record and all, but isn't Timmy a much better investment? i cant see vargas being a draw no matter what he does, I guess they could sacrifice him to pac and try to hype up by saying he beat Bradley to get Pac back on track, or maybe to Crawford if he moves up.
You mean you certainly wouldn't doubt? The Broner/Porter fihgt was a wash out, Porter arguably won every round besides the 12, of course Broner has arguments for some rounds though. 112-114, is pretty much as bad as a robbery.
I don't get the appeal of Vargas whatsoever, and I don't think HBO like him or are pushing him that much, I think this is all Bob's doing. Hopefully Tim will shut him out so even if they had the atrocious idea of a ripoff, he could erase all doubt.
I missed out on Barth vs Demarco which was 3/10 odds which is an extremely easy pick, so I'm desperate to make it up with this fihgt, but I'm scared that I'll lose it all to a robbery. I'm demanding a refund if majority rules it a clear robbery .
i dont think anyone is buying the hype though, there's no doubt left to be erased. hopefully he stops him like he did to devon, and gets rid of Vargas for good.
Good post by the OP. I wish Tim hadn't re-signed with Bob...but he was offered good money and likely will never be marketable. Having said that, this appears to be a fight set up for Bradley to lose based on my view of Bobs agenda. If I had a favorite fighter, Bradley would be the one. Not the most talented, but an honest, hardworking machine who doesn't front. He actually tells it like it is...not like fake a$$ Malinaggi who everyone seems to think keeps it real.
