Artur Beterbiev’s Boxing Odds & Betting Outlook vs Browne

Beterbiev is an easy guy to position as a huge favorite. This considering he is an undefeated world champion with a one hundred percent finishing rate; the only titleholder in Boxing who can say that.

This is an important fight for the dominant champion who is fighting in his adoptive hometown for the first time in half a decade.

The Russian warrior’s last fighting foray in Montreal saw him secure a first-round stoppage. Artur Beterbiev has described getting to defend his hardware in this special location as a dream.

Beterbiev returned in March for his last fight after a near eighteen-month layoff.

The brick-fisted boxer thankfully is able to get another contest in for the calendar year.

Artur Beterbiev and Marcus Browne have both been Olympians in the 2008 and 2012 games respectively.

Both men have high-level refined fight IQs. Combatants that have transitioned smoothly into the pro framework while taking away beneficial aspects of what was learned on the amateur circuit.

Marcus Browne’s Boxing Odds & Betting Outlook vs Beterbiev

Browne is the WBC mandatory contender, and this is his first bid for a lineal crown. He has captured the WBA interim belt but is looking to pencil in these unified title reigns on his resume.

This will be Marcus Browne’s first bout under the tutelage of highly touted trainer Derrick James.

A man who has worked with notable names like Errol Spence and Jermell Charlo (both unified world champions in their respective weight categories).

Browne has a two-inch height advantage as well as an extra two and a half inches in reach.

He is also a crafty southpaw, but Beterbiev has an understated command of the ring generalship. I feel this is because so much focus is put on him being a great puncher and the champ’s preternatural power.
