It’s not a five-round fight where I can relax in the first round and start picking up the pace in the second. You have to be at a high pace and that’s where the surprises start, people get tired, people start making mistakes.»

3.45Tip and bets
Bookmakers experts consider Rozenstruik a clear favorite. However, not everything is so clear in the upcoming fight. Analysts overestimate his chances. In the heavyweight division, fights often end early. And Tuivasa, after four defeats, will clearly be very serious and will do everything possible to break his losing streak. Considering all the nuances, it is worth choosing a bet that the fight will not go the full distance.
