Fernando Vargas wants Cotto!!!

Of course Vargas wants to fight Cotto, it means one last big payday.

 

Vargas doesn't look like he'd be able to get down to 147lbs. So he certainly wouldn't be challenging for Cotto's belts.

 

Cotto is at 147, Vargas doesn't even want 154 anymore. The fight isn't happening. If Vargas stays at 154 for the next three years and is still good then the fight MIGHT happen.

 

cool, nice chuckle first thing in the morning.

 

There will be no Cotto fight for Vargas.But while most posters seem to feel that Mayorga will beat Fernando, I'm not so sure.True, Vargas seemed to have not much left against Mosely, but he is still young, has tremendous experience, and Mayorga is no Shane Mosely.If Floyd came in sub-par against Mosely , he'd get his head handed to him tof course Mayweather never comes in less than spectacularly prepared, but if Fernando buckles down, he could make some noise at 154 again, maybe even 160. I mean, Taylor hardly seems unbeatable, does he?

 

Ain't interesting for Cotto.

He has more attractive challenge in Mosley and PBF. Vargas doesn't deserve a fight with Cotto, he should make some tune up fights before even thinking about it.

 

Vargas wants Cotto :rofl

There's no way this guy gets down to 147, 154, or even 200

 

I read somewhere that he was around 180 now.

Someone in the forum got him on the phone last week, I can't remember who...

 

it was kirk. i think he said vargas is nearly getting close to his fighting weight. this would be a good fight for a last big payday for vargas, but a cotto move to 154 is 2-3 years down the road there's a bigger chance of peace in the mideast than vargas getting down to 147. much respect to vargas though, it takes a different kind of man to take the beating tito dished out and still try to get up.

 

If you ask me, what Fernando really wants is a cheeseburger.

 

Vargas has only looked kind of ripped once, and that was on steroids at 154. If he hits another training camp after the Mayorga fight, then it is not out of the realm of possibility for his making 147. If Vargas can defeat Mayorga, then it could mean a big money fight for Cotto. Vargas may not be considered the same threat as Judah, but he does have a bigger name.

Another thing to consider is that Vargas does not necessarily have to make 147. They could sign to fight there, and he shows up a little heavy. Depending of the circumstances, the fight could still take place.
