    Prime Eleider Alvarez is a better win than 45 yo stevenson
    Eleider is my guy, but he was 36 when he fought Smith. Nowhere near his prime.

      Sports betting is about the right odds. I am not totally confident in a Smith win but my 50 at 9-1 is an easy choice. Win or lose the odds should be no more than 3 or 4 to 1. Similar to the Canelo/Bivol fight. If the odds are in your favor, take the shot!

        Yeah. You're right. When an underdog has the power to change a fight with one punch, you should probably always bet on the underdog if you're going to bet. It's just that I've seen the improvements in Beterbiev, and the odds of Beterbiev getting caught, and caught by a game changing punch is just extremely low, in my opinion.

        Maybe I'm partial to Beterbiev because I like his team, Marc Ramsay, John Scully and Rus Anber. I like all those guys, and I think they are a fantastic team. I like Joe Smith Jr. a lot too but I think "overall," the odds of his winning or landing that shot are remote.

          Beterbiev is favored and for a reason but I am a huge Joe smith fan. I was ringside for his loss to Bivol and maybe I am betting with my heart but either way i am pumped for this one. Two ****ers at 175! Hoping for fireworks!

            I'd love to see Joe win, but he's most likely gonna get starched in there. Is he even a full time boxer yet, or is he still working?

              Betting with your heart makes betting fun, imo. Gets the blood going! Ultimately, whoever wins, I'll be happy for the winner, and this will be fireworks. For sure. Maybe more like artillery!
