  Matchroom Boxing and DAZN will present a seven bout televised card of professional boxing on Saturday, November 29, 2025, at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, England, United Kingdom, featuring the vacant World Boxing Council Silver Light Heavyweight 10-round bout between Ben ‘The Surgeon’ Whittaker and Benjamin Gavazi.

 The former Olympic Silver medalist Whittaker, 9-0-1 with six knockouts, West Bromwich, United Kingdom, 6’3″ age 28, The International Boxing Federation International Light Heavyweight titleholder, is predicted to win by 10-round unanimous decision over Gavazi, 19-1 with 13 knockouts, age 30, Landau, Germany.

 Ben Whittaker is heavily favored to win against Benjamin Gavazi, with odds around −1800 to -2000 compared to Gavazi’s odds of +730 to +850. Whittaker is expected to win by KO/TKO, but can also win by decision. Gavazi is considered a significant underdog.

 In the preliminary to the main event, a rematch, Cameron Vuong, 9-0 with four knockouts, Blyth, United Kingdom, is favored to win by a 10-round unanimous decision over Gavin Gwynne, 18-4-1 with five knockouts, age 30, Treharris, Wales, United Kingdom.

  Ben Whittaker is favored to win against Benjamin Gavazi due to his superior amateur pedigree, including an Olympic silver medal, and a strong professional record of nine wins in 10 fights. His promoter, Eddie Hearn, views him as a major signing with potential to become a global star, and Whittaker himself expresses high confidence in his abilities to defeat Germany’s Gavazi, despite anticipating a tough fight.

The odds for the upcoming Cameron Vuong vs. Gavin Gwynne rematch on November 29, 2025, have Cameron Vuong as the favorite. Odds vary slightly depending on the sportsbook.
