El Boxi Defending Champion
Argentinian fighter Brian Carlos Castano arrives at the venue with the WBA strap tucked away in his luggage. Will it be boarding a plane with him back to his Buenos Aires base at the conclusion of this one? The 29-year-old orthodox boxer brings a professional record of 15 wins from as many starts with 11 of those victories coming inside the distance.
El Boxi made his debut back in 2012 when stopping Alejandro Dominguez (1-2-0) in round four of a bout scheduled for six and the victor got the taste for winning early. So much so we claimed his first two by stoppage and nine of his first 10 before the final bell. That gained him a reputation of a fearsome fighter and handlers found him hard to match, although no one could stop his rise to the top of the division. Castano won the WBA title in November 2016 when stopping Emmanuel de Jesus (17-1-0) in round six and has made two successful defences since.
Traders Not Interested
The first of those came via a split decision win over Frenchman Michel Soro at Evian les Bains last summer before halting Cedric Vitu in the last of a dozen in Boulogne-Billancourt last March. That form may be eye-catching on paper, but it hasn’t done a lot to impress odds compilers who have priced a successful defence up as second favourite.
Punters eager to support the champion will find him available at 9/4, top price when getting your stake money down at Ladbrokes. That’s sure to attract the attention of value hunters, those who like to take advantage of selections priced bigger than they should be. With three of Castano’s last four wins coming inside the distance, the KO/TKO looks to be his best chance and that will give supporters a shot at a bigger price.
