1.80Tip and bets
Bookmakers' analysts consider Murzakanov to be the clear favorite of the upcoming fight. In their opinion, Manfield will have virtually no chance of success. And that's true. The fighter from Los Angeles is slightly superior to his opponent in anthropometric data, but is clearly inferior to him in level. It will not be difficult for the Russian to win and rise in the rankings.
Our prediction is an early victory for Murzakanov at 2.10 on BC Winline
