Expert Betting Tips
Murphy has a more solid technical defense and is a more technical striker than Culibao. Culibao is a tough guy and hard to put away when making it a competitive scrap. Murphy in this bout will be landing more strikes, especially sniffer strikes, and will be winning more minutes. This gives him more chances of outwitting Culibao. I predict Murphy will win this fight by neutralizing Culibao's finishing threat.
