Emiliano Vargas goes 10 for first time, widely outpoints Jonathan Montrel

The unbeaten second-generation boxer – whose father, Fernando Snr, was a former two-time 154lbs titlist – immediately made his presence felt against a determined but overmatched Montrel, 19-4 (13 KOs), of New Orleans. Vargas had Montrel in trouble late in the opening round but was unable to put together that final combination to end the fight.
