Kell Brook – Jessie Vargas: Who Wins?

February 16, 2019February 16, 2019 by James Slater

Jessie Vargas - Former IBF welterweight champ Kell Brook could soon be heading to the U.S, for just the third time in his pro career. Brook, who needs a big and impressive win, won the IBF belt in Carson back in 2014 when “The Special One” scored a razor-thin decision over Shawn Porter. Now, according to a news story from ESPN.com, Brook is close to fighting Jessie Vargas, himself a former champion (two-times), at a location to be determined on the West Coast in either late May or early June.

Jessie Vargas turns down IBF eliminator against Kudratillo Abdukakhorov

October 30, 2018 by Michael Collins

Jessie Vargas - It's a no-brainer that Vargas turned down the IBF welterweight title eliminator against Abdukakhorov. The chances are Vargas would lose the fight. Even if Vargas won, he would need to face IBF welterweight champion Errol Spence, and that would be bad news for him. Vargas has never been knocked out before during his 10-year pro career. Spence would likely KO Vargas, and that would be bad for him and for his promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing USA. Hearn thinks Vargas is capable of winning a world title at 147 when matched against the right guy. Spence obviously isn't the right guy.

Vargas vs Dulorme: DAZN rolls out Matchroom USA in Chicago on Saturday

October 6, 2018October 5, 2018 by Chris Carlson

Jessie Vargas - Back in May of this year Eddie Hearn announced a major billion dollar deal with the streaming service DAZN. Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing USA seemed poised to put a dent in the competition boasting the biggest yearly budget. A little over 4 months later and Eddie’s claims of possessing a few tricks up his sleeve come off as hallow judging by the first two cards on the schedule. Back in the early part of summer this hack-of-a-scribe did a piece on Eddie Hearn and DAZN, wondering how they would fit in an already crowded room of networks.

Errol Spence says he’d like a fight with Jessie Vargas – Can “The Truth” become the first man to stop Vargas?

June 18, 2018 by James Slater

Jessie Vargas - Errol Spence is thirsty for action, and so are his fans. The reigning and unbeaten (some say unbeatable) IBF welterweight champ made short work of undeserving mandatory challenger Carlos Ocampo on Saturday night, blasting him out inside a single round. Wasting no time calling for bigger and better fights/fighters, Spence called for the winner of the scheduled August clash between Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter.
