🥊 FIGHT DESCRIPTION:

Rey Vargas captured championship glory once again while preserving his unbeaten record.

The former WBC junior featherweight king, fighting for only the second time in three years, overcame a dramatic late knockdown to edge out WBC featherweight champion Mark Magsayo by split decision Saturday night in San Antonio, Texas.

“I have no words to describe what happened tonight,” Vargas said through an interpreter. “This is my second world title, and it’s going back to Mexico.”

The fight erupted into action early at the Alamodome, with both fighters exchanging heavy punches and landing at an impressive rate. Standing 5-foot-10, Vargas (36-0, 22 KOs) eventually seized control by using his height and reach advantage to keep the fight at range, repeatedly snapping jabs and left hooks whenever Magsayo tried to close the distance.

Magsayo (24-1, 16 KOs) swung aggressively and sometimes missed wide, but he still managed to land several powerful shots across the 12 rounds. His biggest moment came late in the ninth round, when he floored Vargas with a sharp counter right hand.

The 31-year-old Mexican looked unsteady for the remainder of the ninth and much of the tenth round. However, Vargas regained control afterward, relying on his steady jab and slick footwork to keep Magsayo at bay. Despite having his opponent hurt, the Filipino champion was unable to fully capitalize.

When the scorecards were read, two judges favored Vargas with identical scores of 115-112, while the third had it 114-113 for Magsayo, giving Vargas the split-decision victory and the WBC featherweight crown.
