Re: Fernando Vargas Jr vs Juan Carlos Cordones
Agreed poor matchmaking. Vargas Jr is 27 so not a baby by any means. He won't learn much from knock over jobs; they could at least get him someone who could give him some rounds.
Feeling old now seems like yesterday his father was fighting ODLH

Re: Fernando Vargas Jr vs Juan Carlos Cordones
Unsurprisingly Vargas Jr blows away Cordones in round 1, total mismatch, Cordones out of his depth and hurt with every shot that landed, Vargas Jr put him down early with a quality straight left/right hook, great knockdown, Cordones was down again but ref wrongly rules push, Vargas Jr did put Cordones down a second time opening him up bundling him down, Cordones got up again but Vargas Jr was too hard hitting and too accurate and not long after the towel came in, a blowout for Vargas Jr, he did look good in all fairness but Cordones was a poor opponent coming in and so it proved

It was terrible. And it’s odd to say for a one round blowout but Vargas looked unimpressivehandsofstone wrote: ↑29 Jun 2024, 04:08 Unsurprisingly Vargas Jr blows away Cordones in round 1, total mismatch, Cordones out of his depth and hurt with every shot that landed, Vargas Jr put him down early with a quality straight left/right hook, great knockdown, Cordones was down again but ref wrongly rules push, Vargas Jr did put Cordones down a second time opening him up bundling him down, Cordones got up again but Vargas Jr was too hard hitting and too accurate and not long after the towel came in, a blowout for Vargas Jr, he did look good in all fairness but Cordones was a poor opponent coming in and so it proved
