Why Bet on Kiko Martinez

Martinez, who’s also a former IBF Super Bantamweight world titleholder, won the belt in November with a sensational sixth-round knockout of Kid Galahad in an upset. 

The 36-year-old owns a mark of 43-10-2 with 30 KOs to his name. 

He’s usually fallen just short when fighting the elite of his weight divisions against boxers such as Gary Russell Jr, Carl Frampton, Scott Quigg, Warrington, Leo Santa Cruz, Rendall Munroe, and Takalani Ndlovu but of course, hit the jackpot against Kid Galahad the last time out.

Why Bet on Josh Warrington

Warrington’s last bout came in September in a rematch with Mauricio Lara. However, it was a two-round technical draw as Lara got cut by an accidental headbutt. 

Lara had beaten Warrington seven months earlier via a ninth-round stoppage, making it the Leeds fighter’s only loss.

The 31-year-old Warrington enters the contest with an impressive record of 30-1-1 with 7 KOs. 

All this with Just seven stoppages, which means he might not appear to be too much of a threat to Martinez once again when it comes to power with a current knockout ratio of just 21.9 percent.

Final Betting Analysis – Kiko Martinez vs. Josh Warrington:

It’s hard to imagine Martinez outboxing Warrington at this stage of their careers but he certainly has the power to stop him if he lands on the chin and he may need to consider the state of judging in the UK recently. 

Martinez always has a puncher’s chance when he fights but Warrington’s skills show that this fight is likely to repeat the result of their first meeting five years ago, with Warrington doing just enough to win on points.

Our betting token is on a decision win for Josh Warrington.
