Conor Benn takes on Samuel Vargas. Conor Benn defends his WBA Continental Welterweight title for a fourth time, and it’s another gradual step up in class as he meets ten stone seven gatekeeper Samuel Vargas over ten rounds at the Copper Box Arena, live on Sky Sports in the UK and DAZN worldwide. Benn (17-0, 11 KOs) is still only 24, but the comparisons to his illustrious father Nigel have resulted in a lot of expectation placed on him ahead of his clash with Vargas (31-6-2, 14 KOs) ‘The Destroyer’ has been matched well so far in a 17 fight career that began in April 2016, and his only real scare came in a December 2017 six round thriller with Cedrick Peynaud, where he was down twice in the opener, before rallying to drop Peynaud in rounds five and six to secure a disputed points win.
