Alonzo Menifield as Umar Xi. Betting Tip for the fight

Bookmaker experts consider Xi to be the undisputed favorite, and it's worth agreeing with them. This fight is like a hammer meeting with a blade. Menifield has experience and physical strength, he fought with tops and knows how to turn off the lights with one punch. This may be too steep a leap in level for Si. If Alonzo hits cleanly, his atomic punch will knock out almost anyone, and long—range kickboxing against such a beast is like dancing in a minefield. But there is another side: Si is about technique, speed, and intelligence. And Menifield quite often acts carelessly, and he can run into a counter knockout. Alonzo likes to wave his fists like at a construction site, and if he yawns, Umar will respond in such a way that the stands will gasp. Xi doesn't hit weakly, and his kickboxing style allows him to keep his distance and punish mistakes. We will see something in between: both will try to impose a cut, but will not get clean enough for an early finish. As a result, the fight will turn into a clinch, slow down and turn into a heavy romp at the net. Even in this scenario, Xi will be able to score enough points due to distance strikes and activity. We expect the fight to start like fireworks, but turn into a sticky fight at the net, where both will run out of steam. Xi, with his pace and precision, will score points like a master while Menifield tries to catch a single knockout. 

Our betting tip is that Xi will win by decision of the judges in 3.00
