Centro Civico de Ecatepec, Ecatepec, Mexico. Local age ex-world champion Francisco “Bandit” Vargas (27-5-2, 19 KOs) sensationally flew on points to his fellow journeyman
Guillermo Godinesu (20-12, 14 KOs).
Despite the fact that the underdog went on a series of three defeats in a row, and also that he lost ahead of schedule 7 times, the fight turned out to be very competitive.
Godines kept a long distance, moved well. Vargas tried to get closer, but at the same time he missed sweeping hooks and uppercuts.
The fighters solidly waved, as they often cut the air with their fists. In the 9th three-minute period, the referee penalized Vargas for hitting the back of the head. He tried to play the episode. The tension was so high that the round lasted a few seconds longer than expected.
The underdog had more strength left for the final round – he even began to push the favorite. The fight went the whole distance, and the victory went to the journiman.
Godines (method of victory and score to be specified).
It’s time for Vargas to rest…
