Top Boxing Betting Picks of the Week (February 27th, 2023)

Ritson vs. Davies – Utilita Arena, Newcastle, Tyne and Wear, England (FITE)

  • When: Saturday, March 3, 2023. 2:00pm ET.

Lewis Ritson vs. Ohara Davies

Lewis “The Sandman” Ritson is 23-2 with 13 knockout or technical knockout wins. ” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>Ritson fell to Jeremias Ponce in 2021. But since losing to the then 27-0 Ponce, Lewis has won back-to-back bouts versus Christian Uruzuquieta and Dejan Zlatacanin.

Ohara Davies last lost in 2018. Davies is 24-2 with 17 stoppage wins. Since his last loss, Ohara has dominated, winning six straight. Ritson will fight well in this but Davies has turned into one of Britain’s best. Ohara gest the win.

Boxing Betting Pick: Ohara Davies -200

Fierro vs. Estela – Palenque de Culiacan, Culiacan, Sinaloa (DAZN)

  • When: Saturday, March 3, 2023. 8:00pm ET.

Angel Fierro vs. Eduardo Estela // WBO NABO Lightweight Title

Underdog Eduardo Estela has a decent 14-1 record with 9 knockout or technical knockout victories. In his last, Estela won a split-decision over then 19-0 Ruben Torres.

20-1-2 with 16 stoppage victories. Angel Fierro has thrown down against some seriously talented dudes. Fierro knocked out Jeremy Cuevas in the sixth round of a ten round fight in his last. In the fight before, Angel drew against Juan Carlos Burgos.

Estela is a good boxer. But Fierro is battle tested against tougher competition. The chalk prevails.

Boxing Betting Pick: Eduardo Estela +300

Figueroa vs. Magsayo – Toyota Arena, Ontario, California (Showtime)

  • When: Saturday, March 3, 2023. 9:00pm ET.

Enriko Gogokhia vs. Samuel Teah

Underdog Samuel Teah has a good enough record to warrant a look. Teah is 18-4-1 with 8 KO or TKO wins. Teah beat then 11-4 Larry Fryers via first round technical knockout in his last.

Teah will have a tougher time beating Gogokhia than he did beating Fryers. The undefeated Gogokhia has 13 wins and 2 draws. Enriko has stopped 8 of his opponents before the final bell. Teah will fight hard. It won’t be enough to get past the chalk.

Boxing Betting Pick: Samuel Teah +250

Jarrett Hurd vs. Jose Armando Resendiz

At one time, Jarrett Hurd was spoken about in the same breath as fighters like Ryan Garcia and Gervonta Davis. Not anymore. Hurd has fought three times since 2019, losing two of the three bouts.

This is Jarrett’s first fight since falling to Luis Arias via split-decision in June 2021. Hurd didn’t pick a cupcake to take on in the return fight.

Jose Armando Resendiz has a 13-1 record. Resendiz won his lone 2022 bout, beating then 20-1 Heber Rondon via second round TKO. If the old Jarrett Hurd shows up, he’ll win. But there’s no guarantee the old Jarrett will show up. Backing the dog makes sense.

Boxing Betting Pick: Jose Armando Resendiz +325

Brandon Figueroa vs. Mark Magsayo // Interim WBC Featherweight Title

Up until his last, the underdog in this had been undefeated. Mark Magsayo was 24-0 with a signature victory over Gary Allen Russell Jr. But in his last, Rey Vargas beat Magsayo via split-decision.

We can forgive Magsayo for losing. Vargas is 35-1 and considered one of the top boxers in the division.

Most consider Brandon Figueroa the best in the division. The 23-1-1 pugilist knocked out Carlos Castro in his last. Figueroa has a 4-inch reach advantage. So if he uses it, Brandon shouldn’t lose. The chalk is the play.

Boxing Betting Pick: Brandon Figueroa -263
