    Senior most certainly knocks Vargas out.

    Junior? I dunno, he's shit, but Vargas never did anything at 160. Hard to say.

    I'm not one to overhype Senior.... but he's not losing to Vargas.

    Nando was too small, and too hittable.

    Senior knocks him out.

    For sure he was, but it took tons of punches from tito to finally end him. As i said, i think Eubank is the favorite, but i could see nando outboxing and outworking him and surviving the occasional scare.

    And the size difference is negligible. They are the same height and fought a few pounds apart

    That doesn't tell the full story. Same height, but Eubank was a bigger framed man and was able to comfortably handle higher divisions.

    Vargas was the ideal junior middleweight. Too big for welter, too small for middleweight.

    There is not a single elite middleweight in history i would take Vargas over.

    I'm not playing when I say this... Vargas would have a hard enough time with William Joppy, let alone Chris Eubank.

    Senior is a big favourite over Vargas IMO.
