Timothy “Desert Storm” Bradley, JR., 32-1-1, 12 KO’s just won a unanimous decision over Jessie Vargas, 26-1, 9 KO’s to win a ridiculous interim title from the WBO in the welterweight division.

In the 12th round of a fight that Bradley was clearly ahead in, Vargas hurt him with a huge right hand with just a few seconds left in the fight. As Vargas chased Bradley around the ring and landed several shots on a very hurt Bradley, JR. referee Pat Russell waved it off at the 10 second warning thinking he heard the final bell. It was an honest mistake, but nonetheless, a huge blunder on his part. When the scorecards were read, Bradley, JR. won by 117-111, 116-112 and 115-112.

There is no need for a rematch of this fight…..
