Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn: Conor Benn in his dressing room before Regis Prograis fight

On September 12 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV, Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn will headline a co-promoted card between Zuffa Boxing and Golden Boy Promotions. Fight fans in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and most countries worldwide can catch the action live on DAZN pay-per-view and The Ultimate Tier, while the U.S. can watch the event on Paramount+.

Ahead of this potentially explosive world title clash, we are bringing you some selected prop bets to consider for the September 12 main event.

Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn: recent form recap

Garcia (25-2, 20 KOs) splits opinion, but his star quality cannot be debated. Last time out, he produced a career-best performance, dominating and dethroning Mario Barrios to win the WBC welterweight title. Garcia’s career has not always been one of world titles and good performances. He was poor against Rolly Romero just two fights ago, and everyone will remember that he tested positive for the banned substance ostarine on both the day before and the day of the fight against Devin Haney.

Benn (25-1, 14 KOs) has had his own controversies with banned substances, but did return to the ring in 2025, losing to Chris Eubank Jr in a thriller in London, before comprehensively beating his bitter rival in the rematch. Since then, the Destroyer has beaten Regis Prograis at a 150-pound catchweight, which was his first fight since leaving Matchroom to join Zuffa Boxing.

Prop bets for Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn

Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn has fireworks written all over it. Both have fight-ending power, and if you like the American to win by KO/TKO/DQ, most bookies have that at even money, but if you shop around, you will see 11/10 in some places.

Benn is the outsider, and rightfully so, but he showed against Eubank in the rematch that he still carries power, albeit against a faded Eubank at middleweight. If you think Benn will carry his power back at welterweight, Benn to win by KO/TKO/DQ is 6/1 as we prepare for the fight week festivities.

Picking a fighter to win during a certain group of rounds in the fight always attracts plenty of interest. Garcia started fast against Barrios, knocking him down in the first round. Backing the American to stop Benn in rounds 1-4 is priced at around 13/2. The Brit showed his heart in both fights against Eubank Jr, and if you feel Benn could stop Garcia late in the fight, 10/1 is the price, with some bookies offering Benn to win between rounds 7-12.

Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn: The Big Fight Weekend verdict

Fight week should be tasty, with these two sometimes hot-headed fighters going at each other, but the main event on September 12 has the potential to be explosive.

Garcia’s money shot is the left hook, but his right hand cannot be ignored. His hand speed is electric, something Benn needs to be mindful of. The Brit’s own hand speed is also impressive, and something Garcia cannot ignore. 

Against Eubank Jr, Benn showed how effective his footwork can be, helping him control the distance and move in and out of danger. If Benn falls short coming in, Garcia has the speed and power to end the fight.

We are backing “King Ry,” but if he fails to prepare for Benn, he will lose. It’s a fascinating matchup, with both fighters having plenty of questions to be answered.
