MINTY BETS: I'm Minty Bets with the Yahoo Sportsbook, . And let's look ahead to this weekend in sports. In the MLB on Saturday night, we've got a match-up between two National League World Series favorites, the LA Dodgers and the San Diego Padres. Will we see a low-scoring game, as both these teams start their star pitchers Clayton Kershaw and Yu Darvish? Or will these high-flying offenses dominate?

This weekend's pay-per-view boxing match is headlined between YouTube star Jake Paul, who's a minus 200 favorite, versus ex-MMA fighter Ben Askren, a plus 150 underdog. You heard right. The former professional fighter is the underdog in this event. Think there's any value on taking Ben Askren, or will we see Jake Paul knock out Ben Askren, like he did to former NBA player Nate Robinson?
