    It seemed that as the fight progressed Vargas started looking confused and lost it was as if he didnt think Oscar had that power at 154 in the 4th round Oscar hits him with a right and Vargas looks shocked.

    No. If anything Oscar may have been suprised by Vargas's physical strength.

    I think that Vargas had the wrong gameplan going in. The best Fernando Vargas was the one who beat both Wright and Quartey. He outboxed and out foxed both of those great Champions. Against Oscar, he went and roided up and hit the weights hard, and looked like an amateur bodybuilder for the Weigh in. He would have been better off concentrating on Core Strength, and Leg power, and CARDIO. Stamina is so important in Boxing.

    He looked like a man possessed in the 1st, and had Oscar knocked down, except the ropes kept the Golden Transvestite up. It truly was a 10-8 round. He wasted a lot of energy, trying to KO Oscar. A waste of time. This Olympian should have been worried about OUT-BOXING de la Hoya, which had already been done twice. He should have made it a chess match, and saved the venom for AFTER the fight.

    Tito softened up two of Oscar's toughest opponents. Oscar is still grateful.
