    Connor Benn 1/14, Vargas 11/1...do the math or rather the odds, Vargas is so bad and Connor is so good at boxing , and punching/ taking a punch that there is no other result. Bollox , smallish bet, big odds , IMO get on it .

    Definitely decent value when you consider who he’s been in with. It’s hardly like Benn has been in with anyone good and he’s still very raw despite improvements. I hope it’s a close fight. 5/6 for it to go 7 rounds is a decent shout too in my opinion.

    True ...but 9/1 Vargas to win by any means has got to be a cracking bet.

    Bridges looks nervous. I think she's going to get beaten up. Hope I'm wrong though, more likeable than Courtenay

    12/1 Vargas ko everywhere , can Con
    I like Connor but these odds are wack and the interview's where he's mentioning Spence and then how good Formella is and Sky are lapping it up is gash, hope CB proves me wrong.

    Didn’t have a bet but thought Vargas was a massive price. Thought you were onto some value there. I got it wrong too.

    The bookies probably took the choice of referee into account.

    The fix was in. That would explain the odds.
    Vargas put up no resistance whatsoever.

    Bookmakers always get the inside information.

    Even if not directly, they soon get wise to it. Betting patterns or even one big bet would get them re-setting those odds, quick sharp.

    People scratching their heads about the lop-sided odds they're finding on the day of the fight, then Vargas comes out, sticks his face out waiting for Benn to hit him, offers no resistance and little defence, and the referee jumps in at the earliest opportunity and waves it off, in 82 seconds .......... very suspect.

    But nothing will be done.
    This sport is a joke, the level of corruption tolerated is obscene.
