Angel Fierro vs Jeremy Cuevas Odds

Odds as of October 20th via DraftKings Sportsbook. 

This fight is for the  WBO NABO lightweight title with Fierro entering as the champion opposite Cuevas as the challenger.

Angel Fierro’s Betting Outlook vs Cuevas

Fierro has honed his skills under the watchful eye of boxing hall of famer Erik Morales throughout his burgeoning twenty-plus fight career.

He was able to rebound from his first professional loss and has gone undefeated across his last four fights.

Angel Fierro last fought a former three-time title challenger and is looking to make the sophomore defense of his hardware this weekend. He is the number four contender under the WBO banner in this weight category.

Fierro is looking for a strong win here to vault him toward future big-money fights in the division like Vasiliy Lomachenko, Gervonta Davis, Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia, etc.

Fierro vs Cuevas Recent Fights

The 24-year-old phenom wants to get back to that three-fight knockout streak he was on prior to his last fight.

To do so, he’ll have to get through someone who has never been halted inside the distance as a professional pugilist.

Jeremy Cuevas’s Betting Outlook vs Fierro

Cuevas’ last fight saw him make a triumphant return to the ring after over two years of competitive dormancy. The crafty twenty-six-year-old southpaw suffered his lone loss as a pro in a regional title bid years back.

Since then he has put together a three-fight winning streak with back-to-back stoppages to kick it off. Cuevas now readies for his redemptive opportunity here at a championship belt of an even higher caliber.

Cuevas has mostly carved his name on the Atlantic City and Philadelphia circuits with this being his first fighting foray into Mexico. Conversely, the bulk of Fierro’s pro bouts has been in Mexico up until this point.

This bout sees Fierro enter the ring with a 79 percent finishing rate in his bouts while Cuevas has ended his fights via KO or TKO at a percentile of 71 percent.

Angel Fierro vs Jeremy Cuevas Prediction

This prizefight is slated for ten rounds, but I do not foresee it going the distance.

I see the champion retaining by way of KO or TKO and I also think Fierro gets the job done between rounds 4-6.

Pick: Angel Fierro (-500)
