Why Bet on Gary Russell Jr.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Russell Jr.<\/strong> is chasing greatness by adding his name to a list of only five other WBC featherweight<\/strong> titleholders with six or more title defenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The defending champion from Maryland has boxing in his blood. Because he was trained by his father Gary Russell Sr. Who is a self-educated trainer with five boxing sons, who all became amateur champions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on Mark Magsayo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Magsayo <\/strong>is aiming to become only the second Filipino in history to be crowned WBC World featherweight champion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Philippines, Magsayo<\/strong> was also an amateur champion, reportedly competing in over 200 bouts, so both boxers benefit from quality education and extensive background in the sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Magsayo<\/strong> is trained by Hall of Famer Freddie Roach at his LA Wild Card gym and was recently awarded WBC Prospect of the Year 2021, which is an accolade that his next opponent won three versions of in 2011 \u2013 Ring Magazine, ESPN, Sports Illustrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Betting Analysis: Gary Russell Jr. vs. Mark Magsayo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Current champion is a volume-punching, sharp and speedy, counter-punching out-fighter with all the confidence of a dominant, long-reigning world champion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His jab is lightning-fast and his backhand is a dangerous weapon but it\u2019s those hooks he throws in combinations that are the most damaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His forthcoming foe is young, confident, and powerful, but he does show signs of inexperience during fights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The champion has the experience of seven world title contests behind him and that knowledge is likely to be the biggest factor in this fight, and the reason we have Gary Russell Jr.<\/strong> as our betting pick for this match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
