Deontay Wilder vs Artur Szpilka Betting Preview PT 2
- By A.J. Ryder on January 15, 2016 19:49 GMTArtur Spzilka can be backed at a lengthy price tag of about 5/1 with the majority of European bookmakers.
The method of victory betting is harshly tilted towards a KO, TKO or DQ victory by Deontay Wilder. As is usual in a heavyweight fight, the bookmakers clearly do not expect this one to go to the judges scorecards so you’ll find the heavily-favoured Deontay Wilder at a slim 1/4 price that still offers up much better value than the outright victory.
If you’re looking to back Wilder by decision then you’re likely to be looking at a 5/1 margin for this one to go the distance. While that is always a possibility you won’t find any fights on the Polish fighters records that indicate he is anywhere capable of going a full 12 rounds - much less with somebody who boasts the punching power of Deontay Wilder.
If you are looking to back Szpilka in some capacity the bookmakers think his most likely outcome is a TKO, KO or DQ. You can back him right now for about a 7/1 margin and it will be interesting to see how the odds actually shift around prior to the fight actually kicking off. Szpilka trading at a 14/1 margin for the decision victory is a pretty accurate reflection of just how much they expect this one to be sorted early on.
The draw can be backed at a 33/1 margin.
Wilder is favoured to knock Szpilka out in the 4-6 rounds with the bookmakers pricing him at a 15/8 margin. You’ll find Wilder in the 1-3 paying out at a 5/2 margin while a victory between 7-9 paying out around 10/3. Wlder is 8/1 for a victory by KO, TKO or DQ between 10-12.
