Expert Betting Tips

This could be the fight that steals the night; both guys are fighting with a lot at stake here, mainly the interim belt. Surely, the winner of this fight will have an opportunity to fight for the belt next. I see this fight as a 50/50. Ramirez will be meeting a higher skill set in Jimenez than the controversial win over his last opponent, which earned him the name "Scrappy." Ramirez is very skilled and also knows how to throw punches right. Ramirez should not have issues dealing with all that Jimenez throws at him. In the early rounds of the fight, Jimenez will surely have the upper hand, but as it progresses, Ramirez will be able to gain all the momentum needed to grab a win. This match is going to be a decision match.
