The two Mexican former titleholders are scheduled for a brawl on February 29 in Texas. In our Mikey Garcia vs Jessie Vargas betting predictions, we expect a tough fight. But eventually, Garcia’s skill and experience will likely lead him to the first victory in the welterweight division.

The two former champions will meet at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas on Saturday 29 February. It might not be a major event for the fans, as it will not have any belts on the line. But, it is an interesting welterweight match-up. Both fighters are very talented and technical in their abilities. They will certainly give the fans an exciting fight night.

According to online sportsbook news in Mexico, it will be a comeback fight for Mikey Garcia after his loss to Errol Spence. Garcia will face a hard fight against a proven former titlist Jessie Vargas. However, our Mikey Garcia vs Jessie Vargas betting predictions opts for Garcia to succeed this time in winning his first welterweight fight.

Mikey Garcia insists on a fifth-weight title

The former four-weight champion is coming back from a defeat to IBF world welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr. Although the 32-year-old Garcia is relatively small to fight at 147lbs, he insists to keep fighting bigger guys. It seems he is obsessed with the idea of winning in a fifth division. Should he do so, online sportsbooks in Mexico expect it to round up Garcia’s legacy before he hangs up his gloves.

Jessie Vargas looks to be back on track

The world titlist from Las Vegas, Nevada has picked up a knockout in 2019 against Humberto Soto. His victory came after two draws against Adrien Broner and Thomas Dulorme. He is currently in his prime at the age of 30, with a record of 29-2-2, with 29 KOs. Vargas won titles at junior welterweight and welterweight. His two losses came against Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley by a decision.

According to our Mikey Garcia vs Jessie Vargas betting predictions, a win for Vargas will certainly boost his career. It will be huge for him to get back on track. But, Vargas has a size advantage that will put Garcia in the same scenario against Errol Spence. Vargas is also never shy to let his hands go. Against someone like Garcia, Vargas will have to be smart but also engaging. His odds stand at 4.333, which means a higher value if he makes the upset.
