For us hardcore/nerds.... Two interesting fights without the main event.
Badou Jack (4/7 fav) went from looking two-bob - after getting chinned in a round - to coming back to prove it was an anomaly and over and over again prove he's world-class. However, at 35, coming off several years off tough fights and travelling the world he might not get away with this one. Marcus Browne (13/8 dog) is young, unbeaten, unexposed, a former top amateur and confident. He looks swift and has a noticeable clump.
Browne - 13/8 / 10/3 Stoppage.
Warren-Oubaali for the WBC Bantam title - Oubaali (1/3 fav) is a big favourite over the experienced American, which surprised me a little. Warren (3/1 dog) has fought at a much higher level (pro's) and obviously enjoys the home advantage. Oubaali beat him at the Olympics but it was razor thin close - 19-18. Warren's two defeats have been by SD to proven world level performers.
At 3/1 with Vegas judges Warren has enough positives at that price (20-1 draw).
