===Mayorga vs. Vargas===
It was confirmed on May 13, 2007, that [[Fernando Vargas]] (26–4–0) would face Mayorga on September 8, 2007, on [[Showtime (TV network)|Showtime PPV]] for the vacant WBC Continental [[Americas]] [[super middleweight]] title. However the fight was postponed after it was discovered during a routine blood test that Vargas was suffering from a severe iron deficiency. Doctors ordered Vargas not to participate in the upcoming bout until he received the necessary weeks of treatment to correct the problem. When the bout eventually took place it would be fought at 162 pounds, a weight that neither boxer has ever fought at. Many sources claim that Vargas had complained about fighting at the Jr. Middleweight limit of 154 pounds, stating that it's "too much for his body to take". Vargas has stated that fighting at that weight was the reason he did poorly against Mosley in the second fight.<ref name="Vargas-Mayorga fight date">{{cite web|url=http://fernando-vargas-news.newslib.com/story/7285-61/|title=News Lib - Tech Magazine|website=fernando-vargas-news.newslib.com}}</ref>

Vargas claimed that this would be the last fight of his career regardless of the result. He warned Mayorga that he would not tolerate any insults from him like the ones he hurled at De La Hoya in their press conferences. Vargas stayed true to his promise when at the first official press conference for the fight, Mayorga said some offensive things towards Vargas and attempted to slap him. Vargas immediately jumped up from his seat and retaliated with punches and a brawl broke out between the two fighters' camps, though order was quickly restored. Vargas also recalled the time when Mayorga said Vargas was scared of him when he had defeated [[Javier Castillejo]], then was stripped of his WBC light middleweight title rather than face Mayorga, who then defeated [[Michele Piccirillo]] for the vacant title. Ultimately the contestants faced off, and Mayorga defeated Vargas by majority decision on November 23, 2007. The scores were 113-113, 114–112, and 115–111. Crucially, Vargas was knocked down in the 1st round and again in the 11th round. Post-fight Mayorga apologized to Vargas and the two forgave each other. Vargas officially declared his retirement soon after.
