Betting.Bet Betting Tips
Gervonta Davis is one of the most explosive finishers in boxing whilst Lamont Roach steps up a weight division on Saturday night. Davis is likely to win inside the distance and this outcome is excellent value at 2/9. Tank to win inside six rounds is generously priced at 5/2 whilst at 7/1 we’d even consider a Gervonta David stoppage inside the first three rounds.
Renowned for his speed, footwork and defence, Lamont Roach ticks a lot of boxes but with only ten knockouts in his 25 wins, he is unlikely to possess the power to stop Gervonta Davis.. The 29-year-old has never been stopped and his best hope of winning is on points. A Lamont Roach decision is priced fairly at 25/1.
