Boxing: Gvozdyk vs Beterbiev Odds and Prediction

Two of those four leading light heavyweight titles are set to be merged at the Liacouras Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on October 18. Undefeated OleksandrThe Nail Gvozdyk is producing his next WBC and lineal light heavyweight titles defense, while also undefeated Artur Beterbiev defends his IBF light heavyweight strap to the third time. The Ukraine indigenous, Gvozdyk, is now a -140 favored with the Beterbiev, coming back at +110.
This is actually the fight to Gvozdyk from the previous four that he has been preferred by less than -250. The two previous spells came against Isaac Chilemba and Adonis Stevenson and ended by knockout. This is the first time because his odds were -500 if he fought Radivoje Klajdzic in May which ended with a 31, Beterbiev has been an underdog.
Even the 2012 Olympic bronze medalist, Gvozdyk, is rarely caught out of position, moving across the ring searching for angles to let his thick hands go. As soon as the Ukraine native finds his chances to land he does with 14 of the 17 wins that are professional ending by knockout. When he won the WBC and light belts in the 11th round against Adonis Stevenson his devastating knockout may come last December. That struggle would be the final for Stevenson as he was in that state for several weeks and was placed into a coma on the following Monday.
Maybe matching Gvozdyk in punching power is Beterbiev as just one of his 14 professional fights have made beyond the seventh round and all have ended by knockout. When he chooses to strike the Russia native is competitive. Does he throw 1 punch at one time, rather, he puts up his opportunity and his foe using a flurry.
Both men have conditioning but move about their fights in different ways. Beterbiev is like a pitbull down looking to enter a telephone booth and exchange hands, hes ready to consume a couple shots when it means that he can land.
Conversely, Gvozdyk is a technician, while maintaining range together with his long jabs and straights, moving like a kitty quickly from risk. That having been said, when he smells blood into the water he goes on a full-on attack. The issue for this particular fight is will Beterbiev be able to corner Gvozdyk, or is your footwork going to keep him secure.
