    First, Vargas is leaps and bounds ahead of mayorga in terms of accomplishments...

    he made Campas quit when campas was still good... for a title, in his 16th pro fight or so.

    when on a ONE YEAR TEAR

    beating winky wright, ike quartey, ross thompson, and fighting and making an amazing fight against Trinidad.

    in one year.

    hes the youngest jr middle champ in history, and a two time champ.

    with wins over

    campas
    marquez
    winky
    ike

    and tough as nails losses to

    mosley
    tito
    oscar



    mayorga has beat

    lewis
    forrest

    close fight with spinks

    got DESTROYED by tito, and DESTOYED by oscar

    im not sure though if eather get in the HOF...

    Neither IMO, Vargas has a better resume, but Mayorga's isnt that far behind. I think Mayorga takes this fight.

    Vargas will not go into the Hall of Fame. His win over Wright was controversial, and I wouldnt say his accomplishments are any better than Mayorgas. Vargas could never beat Vernon Forrest in the gym, so he certainly couldnt beat him twice in fights.
