Joshua Buatsi v Dan Azeez Boxing Betting Tips & Predictions
Two undefeated fighters go at it in London with both Buatsi and Azeez looking to use this fight to negotiate a future world title shot against either the WBC, IBF and WBO champion Artur Beterbiev or the WBA title holder Dmitry Bivol.
Buatsi has a professional record of 17 fights with 17 victories, 13 of those wins have come by way of knockout with four on points.
The 30-year-old never ducks an opponent. His last three victories have come against Pawal Stepian, Craig Richards and Richard Bolotniks, so he clearly wants to prove he is the best.
Azeez is also undefeated a professional with 20 successive wins with 13 of those by way of stoppage.
Azeez has been in the ring with the likes of Rocky Fielding and Hosea Burton. His last two wins were against Thomas Faure and Khalid Graidia.
His last two opponents are not at the level of Buatsi, but that does not mean Azeez will be out of his depth. This should be a thrilling contest and it is very difficult to separate the two fighters.
Both Buatsi and Azeez will leave everything in the ring, and it has the potential to be one of the fights of 2023. I am going with Buatsi in this one, I just feel he will stay more composed and not rush into anything stupid. Back the fight to go the distance with Buatsi winning on points.
