JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ JR VS JOHN DUDDY LATEST ODDS AND BETTING TIPS
The switch over to Freddy Roach's camp will likely prove fruitful for undefeated Julio Cesar Chavez Jr if the bookmakers are to be believed. The son of the Mexican boxing legend takes on Irishman John Duddy in the biggest fight of Duddy's life.
Chavez Jr's odds to win the fight are priced at a slim 1/3 outright while Duddy's odds to win are at 9/4 with popular UK bookmaker William Hill.
It's a fairly competitive market in the method of victory as well with Chavez Jr by KO or TKO trading at 2/1, but a decision victory favoured at 5/4. Should John Duddy be able to pull off a victory, he's favoured to do so by decision at a 10/3 price. He's 11/2 to score a shock knockout or TKO victory.
If you do fancy a KO or TKO victory here then your best odds look to be Chavez Jr in the 6-11 rounds. He's priced at 20/1 to win in each of those rounds and he trades as high as 28/1 for a first round victory.
John Duddy is priced at 40/1 to win in every round but the first and the last where he is trading at a 50/1 price.
I think that you'll see the dividends of training in Freddy Roach's camp during the fight. Reportedly, Chavez Jr has never looked better and they will see this fight as an important stepping stone. It's also the biggest fight John Duddy has ever had and he will also be fired up for this one.
I wouldn't be shocked at a decision victory, but I reckon Chavez will get out there and win this one by TKO in the 10th round.
