Predictions
Abel Sanchez Boxing Trainer: “Great matchup, both fighters with extensive successful credentials, I think they are being pushed into a fight neither fighter wants (politically), although our sport needs it, the best taking on the best.
“I believe the outcome will come down to the corner that makes the best adjustments; in my opinion, Beterbiev has the most experienced corner, Mark Ramsay will be able reach back on experience, will direct and provide the calm instructions to win a tough, very close 12 round fight.”
