Badou Jack v Marcus Browne Betting Tips & Predictions
Fight fans have a stacked card full of evenly matched contests at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas this weekend with the bill shown live on ITV4 as part of the channel’s brand new and exciting partnership with the Haymon Sports PBC. We bring you the best Badou Jack v Marcus Browne betting tips.
All the talk has been about the eagerly-anticipated match-up between Manny Pacquiao and Adrian Broner; this is a fight that has kept experts guessing while splitting the opinion of those who follow the noble art. That’s great news for punters who enjoy jumping on any uncertainty and pulling out the value. Our team of boxing experts have run the rule over the headline act and you can read our in-depth preview on the sports section of our site. With a big price selection, we make you a promise it’s a preview worth reading.
Pac Man vs The Problem isn’t the only fight of note on the night, of course. That top of the bill tussle is in serious danger of being overshadowed by a plucky undercard bout that throws two supremely talented and ambitious men into the ring. Badou Jack takes on Marcus Browne over 12 rounds at light heavyweight for the vacant WBC silver title. We’re guaranteed fireworks from this one as both gladiators put their honour and reputation on the line.
Jack Has Stuttered Of Late
As any genuine, dedicated boxing fan will tell you, Badou Jack is amongst the most underrated fighters on the circuit at the moment; this 35-year-old doesn’t get the credit he deserves. Born in Stockholm, Sweden he has made Las Vegas his fighting home and that move worked to great effect. The Ripper mapped out a career that has taken him to the top and he goes into fight number 27, professional round 160, with a record reading 22-1-3. His style isn’t as easy on the eye as it could be and that has resulted in no less than three draws – an unusually high number for a pro fighter. However, there’s no doubting his talent.
Jack’s three draws came against Marco Antonio Periban in Sin City back in 2013; James DeGale when contesting the world titles at super middleweight in Brooklyn 2017 and, most recently, Adonis Stevenson last time out in Toronto back in May of last year. All talented opponents and each of those results was settled as majority decision draws, so he can feel a tad hard done by. If given the nod by the slightest of margins in each his career would’ve taken a very different path. For as impressive as Badou is, his recent form remains somewhat sketchy and he has won only one of his last three.
