1.76Tip and bets
Bookmakers' analysts consider Lopez a clear favorite of the upcoming fight. However, one can argue with them. Leo also recently tasted the championship victories and is definitely not going to give up the victory just like that. In this situation, it is worth betting that the fight will go the full distance. Knockouts do not happen very often in the lightweight divisions.
Our prediction is that the fight will be a full one at 1.44
