Why Bet on Dakota Bush
Bush has a professional record of 8-3-0. The fighter lost his debut against Austin Hubbard by a unanimous decision with all judges giving it a 28-29 score.
To Dakota’s credit, he was signed for the fight with less than a week’s notice. This means he came in without a full camp and straight into the weight cut week.
Bush is in an interesting spot, as having full preparation for this fight means that we will get to see everything he has to offer this time around.
The 27 years old fighter from the USA comes into his 12th fight as a Professional. Now is ready to put on a show against his current rival.
Why Bet on Zhu Rong
On his side, Zhu Rong lost his debut by a unanimous decision against Rodrigo Vargas, ending his 10-fight winning streak.
The 21 years old fighter has an impressive 17-4-0 fight record in a 5 years span, which means he has effectively been fighting as a pro since he was 16 years old.
The young fighter comes with double the number of wins than his opponent while also having a fighter career that is 1 year shorter than his current match-up rival.
Final Betting Analysis: Dakota Bush vs. Zhu Rong
With both fighters hungry for their first win in the promotion, we should expect to see the best performance they can give.
Dakota Bush has never been finished in his career, losing only by the way of decision.
Zhu Rong has been finished 3 times by the way of submission and also lost once by the previously mentioned decision.
Both of these fighters are finishers, and the betting odds are as tight as they could be.
With the American being a well-rounded and technical fighter and the Chinese fighter being more of a brawler, the fight will likely go to the 3rd round.
However, by the technical advantage, we believe that Bush will manage to control the pace and either take a decision win or submit his opponent on the latter half of the 3rd round.
