Boxing Betting Tips
This looks like a mismatch and will soon have a betting line that is reflective of that. Angulo is stepping way up in class against a much younger proven champion that has a far superior resume. Angulo is an undefeated champion at a lower level and does merit respect for that. But Ramirez has been successful at the highest level possible. While there is always the possibility of the proverbial “puncher’s chance” for Angulo it is likely the longest of shots. Ramirez should earn yet another win in impressive fashion.
