Boxing Events: Saturday, November 18th, 2023

Nathaniel Collins vs Zak Miller

Boxing Odds: Nathaniel Collins Under 6.5 -115; Zak Miller Over 6.5 -115
Featherweight Bout

Nathaniel “The Nightmare” Collins has built a decent resume. The undefeated 13-0 favorite has knocked out 7 of his opponents, which explains why under shows the same odds as over.

Collins stopped James Beech in a seventh two fights ago. Then in his last, Nathaniel knocked out then 17-1-1 Raza Hamza in the first round.

Zak Miller, like Collins, is 13-0. But Miller doesn’t have Collins’s power since he’s got just 3 stoppage victories on the resume. Miller will try to box his way to a victory. However, Collins has begun to develop decent power. The favorite gets to the dog before the start of the sixth.

Harry Scarff vs Ekow Essuman

Boxing Odds: Harry Scarff +210; Ekow Essuman -325
Welterweight Bout

Since back-to-back unanimous decision losses in 2019 and 2020 Harry Scarff has been on a roll. The underdog in this has won four straight, two via technical knockout and two via unanimous decision.

For sure, Scarff is in great form but he’s up against it versus Ekow Essuman. The favorite is the best boxer Scarff has faced since the 2020 loss to then 14-0-1 Troy Williamson.

Essuman is 19-0 with 7 stoppage victories. Ekow beat the well regarded Chris Kongo in the last. Backing the chalk makes sense.

Liam Davies vs Vincenzo La Femina

Boxing Odds: Liam Davies Under 9.5 -105; Vincenzo La Femina Over 9.5 -125
Featherweight Bout

Although over is attracting more money, Davies versus La Femina should go under. La Femina is a straight up Mexican brawler. Like many pros who learned their trade in Mexico, La Femina fights inside and tries to land power shot after power shot.

That doesn’t mean La Femina will knockout Davies. The opposite is more likely. Davies is a terrific boxer but he also has power. So what Liam will do is time La Femina’s attack and then land powerful counter shots.

Eventually, one of those power shots should put La Femina on his back well before the ninth starts. Go under to cash.

Nick Ball vs Isaac Dogboe

Boxing Odds: Nick Ball -300; Isaac Dogboe +200
WBC Featherweight Eliminator

18-0 Nick Ball has stopped 11 of his opponents. But although Ball has a fantastic record and is a pit bull of a boxer, Dogboe is a bad matchup.

The problem Ball is going to have is that Dogboe possesses a similar style. Dogboe, though, has vastly more experience and has hung with more powerful fighters like Emanuel Navarrete, who didn’t end Dogboe’s night until the twelfth. Ball loses the first of his career.

Nathan Heaney vs Denzel Bentley

Boxing Odds: Nathan Heaney Under 7.5 -115; Denzel Bentley Over 7.5 -115
British Middleweight Title

The main event on the card in Manchester pits champ Denzel Bentley against undefeated Nathan Heaney. Bentley should have no trouble winning the bout because his 2 losses have come against a couple of the top fighters in the division.

The last loss, via unanimous decision, was in a championshiop bout against the highest ranked middleweight in the world, Zhanibek Alimkhanuly. The other loss came against Felix Cash back in 2021.

When Bentley wins, he usually knocks out his opponent. Denzel has 15 stoppage victories to his credit. Heaney is undefeated, though. Still, Nathan hasn’t come close to battling a boxer with Bentley’s power. Go under to cash.   

Boxing Pick: Under 7.5 | Bet Nathan Heaney vs Denzel Bentley Today
