Brandon Figueroa’s Betting Outlook vs Magsayo

Figueroa is a former WBC titleholder at 122 pounds and is looking to add more of that organization’s gold to his resume in a higher-weight category.

After a two-year reign at super bantamweight, he’s ready to shake up the boxing world and pile on even more accolades.

The former champ is relatively new to the division but Figueroa has a chance to make a big impact within his first couple of fights at this weight.

Also, he comes from a championship family as Figueroa’s brother is former WBC lightweight world champion Omar Figueroa Jr and he’s also trained by his father Omar Sr.

This is a collision between two aggressive, action-heavy fighters who are also proven knockout punchers for their weight category.

The looming bout between these two is seen by fans, pundits, and even the fighters within this fight as a possible fight of the year contender.

Mark Magsayo’s Betting Outlook vs Figueroa

Magsayo is a former WBC featherweight world champion and looks to resume his seat on that throne within his next couple of fights. He lost his gold to the reigning divisional kingpin and Magsayo is seeking a redemptive rematch by securing a pivotal win here.

Both have strong attributes with Magsayo having a bit of an edge in terms of one-shot finishing power compared to Figueroa’s volume-heavy approach.

Conversely, Figueroa has a four-and-a-half-inch reach advantage and has the superior finishing rate.

Brandon Figueroa vs Mark Magsayo Prediction

This prizefight is scheduled for twelve rounds but I do not see things encroaching toward that final bell.

Prop bets on this fight not going the distance (+100) and Figueroa winning via KO or TKO (+160) both present good value for prospective bettors here.

With the volume punching approach and overall in-ring methodology of Figueroa considered, I can see him getting it done between rounds 7-9 (a prop bet situated at +550).

Pick: Brandon Figueroa (-330)
