FIGHT PREDICTION

33-year-old Mexican fighter Rey Vargas has a record of 36 victories with just one defeat; that one defeat coming against O’Shaquie Foster in San Antonio in February 2023. He is putting his WBC featherweight title on the line in this outing against Nick Ball who, fighting out of Liverpool, has started his career with 19 wins out of 19 with 11 knockout victories in that time. Vargas is a typically pragmatic fighter, capable of overcoming a range of styles throughout his career. 5’2’’ Ball appears an excellent up and coming fighter but had some fortune and had to weather a storm in his defeat of Isaac Dogboe, albeit Dogboe was the favourite for that. Despite Ball defying the odds in that one, Rey Vargas is expected to defend his WBC belt for the first time.

TIP: REY VARGAS TO WIN
