1.24Tip and bets
Dudakova approaches the upcoming fight as a clear favorite. Bookmakers have little faith that Hughes will be able to succeed. And that is true. The athletes have approximately the same anthropometric data, the Russian only has an arm span eight centimeters longer. And she is seven years younger than her opponent. The American is an experienced fighter, but this is unlikely to help her defeat the ambitious Victoria.
Our prediction is Dudakova’s victory for 1.86 on BC Winline
