Expert Betting Tips

This bout is a tough one to call. Both fighters have been impressive throughout their careers. Willy is in good form and of a younger age; he surely will be looking to make a statement, while Buatsi will be hoping to show why he still has more to offer. Yes, surely he does. There is a vacant interim WBO World Light Heavyweight title for grabs. Each boxer has experience winning titles, but I believe William Hutchinson can hand over Buatsi his first loss.
