De La Hoya Silences Vargas
Sworn enemies Oscar De La Hoya and Fernando Vargas worked together to put on quite a show Saturday, with De La Hoya scoring a technical knockout in the 11th round to retain the 154-pound WBC title and claim Vargas' WBA version. De La Hoya proved to his critics -- Vargas among the most vocal -- that he's more warrior than pampered Golden Boy.
