Bryan Flores vs. Jose Nunez Prediction
- Boxing Picks: Bryan Flores by KO/TKO (+260 on bet365)
Since putting forth a valiant effort in a loss to Lindolfo Delgado, Flores has gone 3-0, but he still has just one stoppage victory in the last two years. The Mexican pressure fighter has been inconsistent at times, yet he continues to bring the action on a nightly basis.
Flores is not only a better boxer than Nunez, but he is also noticeably bigger than the natural 130-pounder. Nunez tends to make up for his typical size disadvantage with his chaos and blitzing, which come at the expense of his defense, allowing him to be knocked down five times in as many recent fights.
While Flores is not known for having one-punch power, his accuracy and timely combinations match up well against Nunez’s tendency to run into punches. Nunez unravels when he gets hurt, and Flores does his best work when his opponents are back on their heels. The 30-year-old has a golden opportunity to collect a signature knockout in Friday’s main event.
Tsendbaatar Erdenebat vs. Muhammad Yaqubov Prediction
- Boxing Picks: Tsendbaatar Erdenebat by Decision (-163 on bet365)
Now an established top 15 contender, former Olympian Tsendbaatar Erdenebat looks to remain undefeated against fellow southpaw Muhammad Yaqubov. Best known for his 12-round fight with O’Shaquie Foster in 2022, Yaqubov is arguably the most accomplished fighter of Erdenebat’s career, yet still one whom the Mongolian should take care of in style.
Erdenebat’s style is rooted in his slick movement and constant angle-cutting, which make him difficult to read and fuel his high-volume attack. His cardio is a question, but by the time he begins slowing down in the later rounds, Erdenebat tends to be way ahead on the scorecards, and his defense still makes him difficult to hit.
Yaqubov, while unorthodox, has been very hittable once opponents get a read on his movement and irregular guard. His footwork continues to be the biggest issue, forcing a lot of reaching and off-balanced offensive attacks. More than anything, Yaqubov appears to be aware of his technical deficiencies and wins fights on grit and heart more than skill.
A fighter like Yaqubov is always an upset threat if Erdenebat shows up even slightly underprepared. But otherwise, the slick ‘Tsendy’ is poised for a boxing showcase, even if Yaqubov’s durability keeps him in the fight to the final bell.
