Tough test for Benn this one and a decent step up, Benn looked impressive last time out and is maybe one of the UKs most improved fighters.

A great example of Dow Corning at its finest.

Are we yet invested in Benn?

I would say no! I have always said that he will struggle vs a good left hooker!

He has had hard fights already. I do not think Conor Benn has what it takes.


He has enough to make a living, but I do not think he is world class .... AT ALL!

I think he should probably win this one, but it really is a sign of these Covid afflicted times that this is a main event.

How Courtenay and Bridges is for a world title is beyond me. We've seen Courtenay schooled pretty recently and I don't think the other girl can fight.

how old is this "Glasgow Warrior"? he looks a wee bit old to be making his pro debut

Big amateur background...
A lot of shots thrown, Very upright though

[Vendettos]

Kash Farooq is fucking terrible. How much money does his family have to get him close to this stage?

Fucking terrible boxing showing. The guys on mic talking about “he’s doing well, it’s decent”, “the fight has been terrific”, the whole thong has been terrible and he is getting beat.

Eat any of these chicks out. Hope Barbie loses to be fair, rather fight for it!

If you know, you know.

Barbie vs courtney - Draw for me. Relatively one sided until 5.

Vargas is a tough crafty nut and can whip to the body. Good and needed comparative measuring stick type fight for Benn if he hopes to branch out his exposure. Vargas has been dropped and wobbled by big bangers Spence, Danny Garcia and Vergil Ortiz but was still upright when all were waved off. Benn will have to keep up his pace and be willing to mix it up.

Vargas is 8-1 to get the win, I've stuck a fiver on him
