^ Yes, I also check and the other betting options is already available.

Magsayo by KO is 5.00 and Vargas 6.20. And then looking further, it seems that sport bookies are looking for this fight to go to distance.

On the other hand, some of us might think that the fight will not go to distance. We are looking for Magsayo to convince with a huge win by knock out.

I will take the KO win by Magsayo, this is a big odds and an opportunity for those who believe that Magsayo will win here by KO. Thank you guys for notifying us about the odds, I'm also waiting for the full odds.

Same here, I would not hesitate to take that odds as we don't usually see that kind of very attractive odds for a champion. Besides, we are supporting Magsayo here so it's a big treat for us especially if he will successfully defend his title via KO. I have to be honest, Vargas on record is really tough, but I believe Magsayo will do the work to KO him.

And he will definitely wanted to go for a KO, as he said in his interview. He noticed though that Vargas loves to fight backwards so it's a question whether he wants to engage Magsayo or not.

And if doesn't then Mark said they are also ready as he has spared with different kind of boxers, from brawlers to defensive fighters. So this is going to be a interesting fight and possibly he will look for a KO no doubt.

Vargas has some pride, he would not back down and we might see a toe to toe fight which will definitely lead to an early knockout. I like the chance of Magsayo winning by KO in the range round 1-3, and looking at the betting odds, that's very attractive as well. So you guys, are you willing to pull the trigger on that?

Magsayo by KO @5.0 is very tempting/attractive in my opinion and i would put some money on that option for sure but i'm more inclined that this would go the distance because both fighters would be cautious or i would say respectful to each other so their guards must be high all the time.

6-0 on the poll in favor of Magsayo, seems like the latter would be the runaway winner in the survey lol.

I just voted for Magsayo and it's 7-0 but it s not the parameter to consider if Magsayo will dominate here Vargas is also dangerous I have seen his highlights on Youtube and he is not patsy he can dominate a fight and is good in rapid punching, both are rapid puncher and let's see who will be a better rapid puncher when they meet inside the ring.

I'm sure it's also available in other sportsbooks, just go check it to confirm.

Yes, also available at Stake.com now. Although I am positive I will stay with these options only. It's difficult to predict what round it will end.

Philippines boxing news and analysts are mostly about Magsayo getting a KO in the 10th round or maybe earlier. But of course, we know it could be a biased analysis.
Since I am a Filipino, I am also going to be biased.  I am putting my early bet for Mark Magsayo by KO.
Good luck guys.

Based on the odds, many bettors think Magsayo is more higher chance to win via KO while Vargas is more higher chance to win via decision, this is not wrong since if we look on their statistic, we can say it's too obvious. But the odds for Magsayo win via decision is interesting too, it's 3.00x, more importantly both of them are same and only have slightly difference. I think the most safest to bet in this fight is bet $5 for Magsayo win via decision and bet $3 for Magsayo win via KO.

Indeed, Magsayo really benefited from those wins he got in the previous years, he's the type of boxer that doesn't bark a lot and keeps his head low to have more grasp on the situation. Now that he's training with Freddie Roach, he has more advantages and has helped him to have more IQ in the ring against Vargas.

He already experienced a lot of fighting outside his country and so far he showed some promising fights to prepare for this upcoming fight that will gonna change his life if he gonna shows some best moves to win against Vargas easily. But, as everyone knows, Vargas seems not to be bothered with his opponent's records and that would make this fight interesting. Only a few days to go before we finally conclude the match between these two best fighters and finally we can see how good Magsayo is after training with Freddie Roach.

I reckon that their fight will be held at San Antonio, TX so it will be a hostile crowd for Magsayo as the majority of people who will watch the said fight will be Mexicans but I know Magsayo is already used to it as you've also said that Magsayo has already experienced a lot of fight outside his country, the Philippines.

I just bumped an article that Alamodome Stadium was also the same stadium where Manny Pacquiao made his huge breakthrough in his career against Barrera, so maybe this will also the mark where Magsayo will have his same breakthrough. It will be much more fun to watch if the both fighters will go for a toe-to-toe fight.

Yeah, we might compare this to Manny's fight in Alamodome. It was huge back then as Manny is an upcoming star and MAB is legitimate champion already.

So hopefully even if the crowd is hostile against Magsayo, he shouldn't be bothered by it and instead used this as motivation to beat their hometown favorite in Vargas. And now that we have seen the odds for a knock out is huge, it is really a good time to bet for it.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I am hoping to see that as he was really criticized for not beating Russell easily despite the champion literally fighting with one hand only. He needs to silence the critics by beating Vargas which is healthy and a good challenger for him. I'm excited for this fight guys as you are, so let's hope that our champion will be able to defend his title in this fight.

The dude is obviously improving and hopes he won't be pressured in this upcoming fight so far he used his experience fighting in the US very well and he is gaining some more popular than before. nevertheless, he is expected to show some more moves and skills in this fight and more fans are calling for a knockout score to further stretch his confidence to fight more strong boxers in their weight division. Heavy punchers are popular in that division and to be one of them is a huge success and a chance to become one of the legends in boxing history.

Yes, he is improved. He won't climb the rankings if he's not improving. He won't get a chance for a title fight if he's not improving. And now that he finally gets the Championship title, it's clear that he really improved in his entire career in boxing.

He will be able to successfully defend this title. That's what I'm seeing here. We are witnessing another great Filipino boxer in the making that will dominate the Featherweight division and hope he can build a good stand here and move up weight soon.

As they have stated, if Magsayo doesn't win I don't think it will give him a good future, they won't see much potential in him and will seek to do other fights excluding him, here Vargas is also better off than Magsayo himself, for me Magsayo has to overcome all past where he has failed, because it is not good for any boxer who starts to remember moments where he was not good, all athletes and sportsmen have their fall, absolutely all, and the best thing is to know how to get up, what I assume is that Magsayo must have a lot of motivation, he had that poison left inside of having failed and this time I don't think he will do it again.

When the crowd goes against Magsayo and he emerges victorious, that's reason enough to say that the fighter has high morale and I know there is no such thing as failure in his mind, should he have a loss, he won't take it that way. It will be a lesson, this fight really promises you, if things go as we are speculating, they will not only use their arms and hands well to hit, it will be a high strategy fight.

I'm looking at odds before the upcoming fight here everything has been unchanged for several days now https://box.live/boxing-betting/magsayo-vs-vargas-odds / however, the bookmakers' bets have changed in favor of Vargas' victory, apparently local bets in his favor prevail, I think this gives Magsayo additional motivation to win.

Yes, there was a change as Vargas started to be the favorite and then Magsayo had a massive odd swing but at the end Vargas regain it back and I think it will stay this way as the fight is just a couple of days from now.

But it is still very close odds though, and this might be the closest odds for a fight that we have seen in boxing for a long time. And it just shows that this fight is really a must show as both are very exciting specially Magsayo because of his power. But at the same time, Vargas too will have a lot of fans because the fight is going to be held in Texas.

He has no choice, he needs to be motivated to win the fight so he will remain a champion. It's a tough challenge on his first defense but winning this will make him more popular and big fights will be coming for him. His idol is Manny Pacquioa,  so he should work hard to achieve big success in boxing.

I think it will be good for him when he has no choice and his back is against the wall. He will be somewhat force to really get his first title defense win by hook or by crook.

Definitely, a win might slingshot his career just like his idol in Manny. For fights and more money if he prevails against the Mexican Vargas.

That's why he has to work hard and improve his stamina so he will last and he would still have the power in the end. This is a firepower fight because Vargas is also a legit challenger, he has more fights and has a better KO rate, so it's not really easy for Magsayo that's why he is listed as an underdog despite he is the champion.

Yes, Vargas is a KO orchestrator and it won't an easy fight for Magsayo, he needed to defend his belt and need to continue enhancing his skills, more footworks and good defensive stop, he have the intelligence to work on observing how Vargas will attack and throw those punches, Magsayo needs to have an extra effort to condition his body before the fight, expect Vargas to be more aggressive challenging him in the early rounds.

[Baofeng]

I guess everyone is now excited as the fight is getting nearer, here is the Press Conference:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSR5C3sst-g

Move forward to 17:12 for Magsayo's question and answer, Magsayo is looking for a knock out guys, and he said straight it to Vargas, bro down run too much, so that we will give a good fight to the fans, hehehe.

Looks like both are ready for their big fight this Sunday. Magsayo is very confident and issue a warning for Vargas not to run in this fight. And then Vargas says that Magsayo's team added more in their side of training, maybe they acknowledged his talent.

So tomorrow it's going to be the final weigh-in, hopefully both can make it to the limit.

And then the day after, it will be the fight that all Filipinos are waiting for. If Mark will be the next one to carry the flag.
