Vargas defeats Soto<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jessie Vargas stopped former three division world champion Humberto Soto in the sixth round of an exciting bout.<\/p>\n

The win was Vargas\u2019s first since December of 2017 after drawing against Adrien Broner and Thomas Dulorme in 2018.<\/p>\n

Soto was coming off a unanimous decision victory over Brandon Rios on Feb. 23 in Tijuana, Mexico.<\/p>\n

The fight produced several fierce exchanges from the opening bell, but an accidental clash of heads brought a pause to the action as a cut opened over the left eye of Vargas.<\/p>\n

Soto showed his good technique during the fight but Vargas found success landing good punches to Zorrita’s head.<\/p>\n

Vargas, who is now working with Freddie Roach, dropped Soto one minute into the sixth round. Soto beat the count and fought back.<\/p>\n

Moments later,\u00a0 Vargas trapped Soto in a corner and let his hands go, stunning Soto again. Referee Thomas Taylor stopped \u00a0the bout at 1:48.<\/p>\n
