[Boxing]: Info and Prediction Thread

[bisdak40]

Beterbiev is one scary man, his looks alone and then his body, built like a tank. But we have the tall Bivol, with great IQ and again, upset Canelo when everyone write him off on that fight and says that he can't beat Canelo.

It's really hard to pick for now, but we all have our favorite already here in Beterbiev.

The odds are identical, a perfect 50/50. Snippet from Unibet:

Doesn't happen very often in boxing.

My favourite is Bivol. Beterbiev is scary indeed, but you're only as good as your opponent allows you, and Dmitrii has what it takes to stop him.
Honestly, I think it could be a better fight than Fury Vs Usyk.

Interesting odds but i expected this because both are talented boxers and neither of them had a clear edge over the other though Beterbiev is older than Bivol but his physical attributes doesn't show that he is now 38 years old.

Fury vs Usyk is also an interesting fight and they have the attention of the boxing community because their division (heavyweight) is special at least for me hehe.

(...) Beterbiev is older than Bivol but his physical attributes doesn't show that he is now 38 years old.

I believe he's 39 now, so close to the normal retirement age, but could as well still perform great for another 2-3 years. People age differently and with the current medical knowledge and proper nutrition, boxers "shelf-life" can be extended.

Fury vs Usyk is also an interesting fight and they have the attention of the boxing community because their division (heavyweight) is special at least for me hehe.

Oh for sure. It's going to be a great year for boxing, which lost a lot of fans to MMA etc but seems to be making a comeback.

b. Bivol is the younger fighter, taller and have the reach advantage perhaps. And he has one of the best wins against the cash cow in Canelo Alvarez. So at least we have seen him how his style can go against a aggressive fighter. Not saying that Beterbiev and Canelo has the same style, but both loves to attack and aggressive and Bivol was able to neutralize it by his volume punching.

Agree. These were my thoughts too. If Bivol managed to dominate Canelo, he surely can do the same to Beterbiev.

Teo Lopez vs Jamaine Ortiz weigh-in video,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLnLIDgbpWQ

Both make the weight requirements in this fight, 139.6 lbs.

So another good fight this weekend to fight, Ortiz though still a huge 5:1 underdog in this fight. Both look in shape and sharp, but I'm expecting the take over to win this fight.

I don't know, but it might be good to throw some money on the underdog Ortiz?

Style makes fight and I think that Ortiz might give Teo a hard time early on in this fight just like what he did against Loma. And I'm not sure if there will be rehydration clause here. If none then I think Ortiz will be the bigger guy, IMHO.

So it might not be as easy fight for Teo as everyone might have thought, at least this is how I would see the fight that Ortiz will have a chance and that odds should be at least closer.

For me its good to throw some few dollars on the underdog Ortiz as Teo for me is unpredictable in his fights. Unpredictable in the sense that if he fight a non-popular, his performance is not so impressive while on a championship fight where we expected him to lose, he showed up and give us an impressive fight. Ortiz is a keep busy fight for him so i think his performance here will be sub par, just my thought.

Ortiz by Decision 13.00 on Stake.  the bookie doesn't allow you to bet on him for bigger amount actually, a few USD won't hurt.  but Teo still is the bigger puncher between the 2. it counts because it can win the fight. if its all he got, just one shot could turn the things around.

i would probably try the multibet by just picking few who has the highest KO ratings. who knows, this few USD can turn to thousands. this is the list of the full card.

[Baofeng]

^^ Lol at the picture of Pedraza there, hehehe.

Yeah, Ortiz is a huge underdog in this fight and although I think Teo might get the win here, but still if you love underdogs, Ortiz will be the perfect definition of it. Keyshawn Davis too at 135 lbs could be a good fight to watch against Pedraza.

He could be the next main man at this division, although it still has the best, Tank Davis and then Shakur Stevenson.

There's not much option on this fight between Lopez vs Ortiz so i will just go for "under 8.5" @3.0. Though i have a feeling that this would end via decision but throwing a few dollars for that odds i think is worth the risk since Teo Lopez is a knockout artist.

To be honest I didn't bet on this fight mate, as I know that Teo is going to win and that it can go to full 12 rounds but it doesn't have any value on it.

And as expected, he win and others says its a boring fight. And I can't blame them, Ortiz doesn't want to engage Lopez and he thought that he can win with that strategy of catching and then running.

[FinneysTrueVision]

It's been obvious for a long time that Teo needs to switch trainers. He is too stubborn to actually do it but I don't see him going much further with Teo Sr. in his corner. With just a little bit of slickness any fighter can make him look bad. Because of his flaws and how much he thinks he's worth, there isn't too many options for him right now. Teofimo vs. Subriel Matias is a fight I would really like to see.

Great fight for boxing fans, we have been hearing the name of Ryan Garcia lately and so this is the result of Ryan being in social media, hehehe. He can create the fight that he wanted.

So it was a blessing in disguise that Romero back down on their negotiations.

And then Haney accepting this challenge, his belt on the line to make this mega fight.

Garcia is a huge betting underdog as initially listed, 5:1.

Just trying my luck there bro but Teo has been exposed big time in that fight. He got easily frustrated by the hit-and-run style of Ortiz and failed to cut the gap or cornered Ortiz. He can't expect every boxer to come to him and slug it out. Luckily for him, the judges gave him the fight as per Compubox, Ortiz has more punches landed than him.

And now we have a huge fight at 140 lbs, Haney vs Garcia.

Last time I check the odds, it's Haney that is a huge favorite in this fight. But I will give Garcia a slight chance to win if he can hit that left hook of him. He had lived with it, he try to used it against Tank, but Tank is wise and smaller and so it's very hard to execute it perfectly.

But against Haney who is the same height with him, who knows, he might able to slip some and see if Haney is stronger as this weight division as he is not known to have a good chin.

And there is a pre-fight brawl already: https://talksport.com/sport/1744379/devin-haney-ryan-garcia-brawl-super-bowl/

Not sure about the brawl though, it looks like as setup to me. But in any case, and as I have said, Garcia is a long shot here, Haney's weight is no longer a problem for him at 140 lbs and his punch had some power now, he knock down Prograis in their last fight.

Money wise, this is great for them. Millions again for Ryan and could be another blockbuster in terms of PPV numbers.

Still a lot of time to digest the fight before we sealed our bet here. And maybe Garcia can close up that gap so for Garcia fights, this early is a good time to bet.

They have been bitter rivals since the amateur days, and maybe Ryan is envy of what Devin Haney has accomplished already. Unified champion at 135 lbs, which only Ryan can dream and the becoming a champion now as 140 lbs.

And now he challenge him for the belt and it's a total weight class as both are huge boxers and they can even mature and go as high as welterweight or even super welterweight. But the rival should be tested right now and I wouldn't be surprised since Haney, as they said feather fisted, might actually score a ko win here.
