Why Bet on Leigh Wood

WBA Featherweight Champion Leigh Wood will be defending his title for the first time when he takes on an unbeaten challenger in his hometown of Nottingham, England. 

Wood took the title in July with a 12th-round TKO of Can Xu (Xu Can) of China. 

The 33-year-old Wood enters the ring with a record of 25-2 with 15 Kos. He made his pro debut in 2011 after a good amateur career and has boxed 132 rounds since. 

He’s also captured the British, British Midlands, Commonwealth Boxing Council, and WBO European Featherweight Titles along the way.

Why Bet on Michael Conlan

The undefeated Michael Conlan from Belfast, Northern Ireland, last fought in August when he beat TJ Doheny via a 12-round unanimous decision for the vacant WBA interim World Featherweight title. 

He is now coming to take his opportunity in this title unification bout, and he is the slight favorite in the betting lines.

The 30-year-old Conlan carries around a perfect record of 16-0 with 8 Kos.

Conlan turned pro back in 2017 and has 115 rounds of experience since. 

Since turning pro he’s also captured the vacant WBO Inter-Continental, and vacant WBA Inter-Continental Featherweight Titles as well as the WBO Inter-Continental Super Bantamweight Crown. 

Final Betting Analysis: Leigh Wood vs. Michael Conlan

Wood surprised a lot of people with his excellent performance against Xu in his first test against an upper-echelon boxer and the question is if he can replicate it against Conlan, who hasn’t lived up to all the hype so far in his pro career. 

Conlan has fought to the level of his opponents so far and he’ll need to bring his game up if he hopes to beat Wood

Finally, fans will hopefully see just how good Conlan is this weekend, as he is the better boxer overall and our betting pick is on him, as he should be able to pull the win off in a close contest.
