AI Betting Picks
- Over/Under – Over 9.5 rounds (-125)
- Moneyline – Gervonta Davis (-700)
The official Davis vs Martin betting prediction is that Davis will get his hand raised with a stoppage victory in the championship rounds. This is a tough fight to bet on because so many outcomes could happen, and there isn’t any value in Davis’ moneyline.
Even though he is a KO artist and you should expect him to deliver, Gervonta Davis’ KO streak is in danger this weekend with Martin across from him. Martin is an excellent boxer who can go both forward and backward well.
Martin needs to switch up his attacks and buy into either crowding Davis and being physical, or trying to outbox him from the outside with his length.
Many casual fans mistake Davis for being just a puncher, but he is much more than that. He is very cerebral in the ring and makes his opponents make mistakes for him to take advantage of. Even if he can’t find the mark, Davis will come forward and hunt for that KO in the later rounds.
Making a bet on this fight going to a decision or a Davis win by decision isn’t a bad play either. The majority of the public will be betting on a Davis KO, so there’s a lot of value in taking him to win a decision. This could very well be a “boring” chess match for many viewers who don’t understand what they are seeing–two southpaws trying to figure out how to find each other’s chin.
- This Davis vs Martin bout will be worth tuning in for and putting money on Davis to win by KO will only enhance the viewing experience as a fan.
