the WBA junior welterweight champion Jessie Vargas made some rather lofty comparisons when talking about a potential match up against Flipino slugger Manny Pacquiao .
"I believe I’m in the position that Julio Cesar Chavez was when he fought ‘Azabache’ Martinez and no one believed in him and he came out with the victory and he knocked him out. Also when Sugar Ray Leonard fought Wilfred Benitez and no one believed in Sugar Ray and that’s when a star was born. I truly believe that I’m in that position and it’s all about rising to the occasion. I hope we get this opportunity but whatever comes, we’ll be ready for,"
