MyBookie Betting Lines for the Bout
Edgar Berlanga vs. Jason Quigley
Boxing Odds: Edgar Berlanga -1428 vs. Jason Quigley +601
Madison Square Garden | New York City, New York
Berlanga should win this bout, but whether Edgar knocks out Quigley is another matter. Quigley has a terrific 20-2 record. Jason suffered both losses via stoppage before the final round.
Ah, but the round total in Berlanga versus Quigley on Saturday is 4.5. Edgar Berlanga started his career going 16-0 with 16 stoppage victories. Since then, Berlanga has gone the distance in 4 straight.
Edgar knows that if he wants to compete against guys like Canelo Alvarez and David Benavidez in the super middleweight division, he must develop a bottom. Doing so means taking some punishment to develop a chin and putting in more than 5 rounds per fight. This goes over the total.
Boxing Pick: Over 4.5 | Bet Edgar Berlanga vs. Jason Quigley Today

Fernando Martinez vs. Jade Bornea
IBF Junior Bantamweight Title
Boxing Odds: Fernando Martinez -476 vs. Jade Bornea +296
The Armory | Minneapolis, Minnesota
Martinez has a non-stop motor. In his last couple of bouts, Fernando beat Jerwin Ancajas, arguably one of the top Filipino boxers on the planet.
Ancajas, though, is a veteran whose boxing skills may have deteriorated. On Saturday night, Martinez must get by Jade Bornea.
Jade has skills that could lead to a win in this fight. He’s tall, has a reach advantage in this, and knows how to use his jab. Ancajas had trouble keeping Martinez at the end of his jab. Bornea won’t.
Boxing Pick: Jade Bornea | Bet Fernando Martinez vs. Jade Bornea Today

Erickson Lubin vs. Luis Arias
Boxing Odds: Erickson Lubin -1250 vs. Luis Arias +533
The Armory | Minneapolis, Minnesota
Erickson Lubin should be the chalk in this, but Lubin lost his last fight. Granted it was versus Sebastian Fundora and it happened in the ninth round via a referee technical decision.
Arias isn’t on Fundora’s level. He’s not even on Lubin’s level. But Arias is a banger who has never lost a bout via stoppage.
So although Lubin should win, Erickson offers underlay odds to do so. Backing the dog makes sense. Taking a shot on the dog makes sense.
Boxing Pick: Luis Arias | Bet Erickson Lubin vs. Luis Arias Today

Carlos Adames vs. Julian Williams | Carlos Adames Takes on Julian Williams for the WBC Interim Middleweight Title
WBC Interim Middleweight Title
Boxing Odds: Carlos Adames -666 vs. Julian Williams +374
The Armory | Minneapolis, Minnesota
22-1 Carlos Adames finally get his title shot. Don’t expect the favorite top disappoint.
For sure, Julian Williams is a good boxer. But Williams is 33-years-old and heads into this after a win against 18-11-1 Rolando Mansilla.
Before beating Mansilla, Williams had lost 2 straight. Adames’ last loss came in 2019. Carlos has knocked out 17 of his opponents. So if you want a better payout, look for a TKO/KO prop.
