This week’s betting guide is safer rather than rewarding with only two money making fights surrounded by long odds. We have broken down the fights and have given you both safe and more rewarding options depending on how lucky you feel!
Bermane Stiverne vs Chris Arreola
The main fight of the night comes from Los Angeles with Chris Arreola (36-3, 31 KO’s) aiming to avenge the lopsided loss at the hands of Bermane Stiverne (23-1-1, 20 KO’s) last year when they meet for the vacant WBC Heavyweight Title. The winner is set to face unbeaten knockout artist Deontay Wilder (31-0, 31 KO’s) later in the year and we believe that will be Stiverne. Last year’s victory came via unanimous decision with Arreola going over in round 3 so the smart money would be for a repeat result.
Safe Bet = Stiverne win (4/6)
Reward Bet = Stiverne on points (after 12 rounds) (6/4)
Derry Matthews vs Martin Gethin
The headline fight from the Olympia, Liverpool sees “Dirty” Derry Matthews (34-9-2, 19 KO’s) competing against Walsall’s Martin Gethin (24-4-1, 11 KO’s) for the vacant BBBofC British Lightweight Title. Although both have not reached world level, Matthews has fought stiffer opposition and is the current Commonwealth Lightweight belt holder. “Levels” are often talked about in boxing and it’s the difference of levels between these two fighters that we’re backing Matthews for victory.
Safe Bet = Matthews win (8/15)
Reward Bet = Matthews in rounds 1-12 (any method) (15/8)
The Best of the Rest
The remaining fights are extremely one-sided but can help a little in an accumulator:
Hughie Fury win (1/12)
Kid Galahad win (1/20)
Thomas Stalker win (1/25)

Safe Accumulator = 2/1
Reward Accumulator = 8.5/1
Good Luck!
