Why Bet on Terri Harper?

Harper is a rising star in women’s boxing, with an impressive record of 13 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw. She is the current WBA super welterweight champion. And at just 26 years old, has already established herself as one of the best boxers in her weight class.

Harper is known for her technical skills, power, and speed. And she has shown an ability to adapt to different opponents’ styles. Her confidence and power are what will give her a slight edge over the much older opponent this weekend.

The youthfulness and speed come along with it at her age, so what she lacks in experience, she makes up for in athleticism. 

Why Bet on Cecilia Braekhus?

A highly experienced and accomplished boxer. Known as the “First Lady” of women’s boxing, Braekhus held the undisputed welterweight title for nearly a decade, making record-breaking 25 title defenses. 

With her technical proficiency, ring IQ, and excellent footwork, Cecilia was once considered the pound-for-pound best female boxer in the world. Braekhus still has her strong jab, footwork, and ring intelligence. However, at 41 years old, she has lost some of her speed and reflexes. 

Final Betting Analysis – Terri Harper vs. Cecilia Braekhus

Based on their styles and current form, this fight could be a close one. Harper will likely look to use her speed and power to overwhelm Braekhus early in the fight, while Braekhus will try to establish her jab and use her experience to outmaneuver Harper. 

Terri must avoid Braekhus’ jab and dictate the pace of the fight. If she does, she will get a decision or score a late stoppage. On the other hand, if Cecilia can establish her jab and frustrate her opponent, she could win by decision. Whatever the case, we’ll go for the English woman for the win, as we believe youth will be an important factor.

Go for a Terri Harper’s victory at -400. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could win $25 for a total payout of $125.
