All time great and KO King Carlos Zarate presented the illustrious green and gold belt to new World Boxing Council super bantamweight champion Rey Vargas at the WBC weekly conference?
Rey immediatly thanked his Parents, family and friends for their their unwavering love and support. Mum and Dad stood side by side beaming with a fresh faced, unmarked Rey, who was sartorially attired in a cool light blue suit.
The accolade is the culmination of a lifetime’s dream, followed by year upon year of dedication and ever harder work, guided by Dad and Nacho Beristain. It’s zenith was last Saturday in the United Kingdom when Rey defeated Yorkshireman Gavin McDonnell, in Hull, by majority decision, for the vacant crown.
The brand new champion from Otumba, recalled the promise he made to the Mexican public prior to his encounter with destiny: “Before I get to the ring I will be booed but when the fight is over I will be cheered.”
Grateful to the WBC for this great opportunity, Rey Vargas also emphasized that he is so proud because he had to travel to the country of his rival to put Mexico firmly on the map.
Rey stressed that the belt is dedicated not only to his family and work team but also to the WBC and he vowed: “I will defend this belt like a dog, I am and I will be the champion for a long time. In less than two weeks, I’ll be back in the gym.”
