Tip and bets

TipThe fight will not be complete

2.53

Bookmakers consider Lima a clear favorite of the upcoming fight. However, they overestimate his chances. Without a doubt, he is a promising fighter who is destined for great success. Unless, of course, the Brazilian takes a wrong turn. In general, the same can be said about his opponent. The anthropometric data of the fighters are almost identical. Santos only has a slightly larger arm span. In this situation, it is worth choosing a bet on the fact that the fight will not go the full distance. The fighters have ten early victories between them.

Our prediction is that the fight will not be complete at 2.53
