Top Boxing Betting Picks of the Week – July 15th, 2024

Still, Paul is just a -300 or so favorite versus Perry. Do those who set boxing odds know something we don’t? In any case, Paul versus Perry is the highlight bout on Saturday. Check out odds for JP’s fight as well as four other bouts taking place on July 20.

The Magnificent Seven – Resorts World Arena, Birmingham, England (ESPN+)
- When: Saturday, July 20th, 2024. 2:00pm ET
Solomon Dacres vs. Michael Webster // English Heavyweight Title
Webster and Dacres fought last November. Dacres beat Webster via majority decision. Oddsmakers expect another close fight because Webster shows up as just a +165 underdog.
Since the bout, Webster has won a bout while Dacres has continued to train. Solomon looks like he should win this, but the -210 odds make him a slight underlay. Taking a chance on Webster makes sense.
Boxing Betting Pick: Michael Webster +165
Chantelle Cameron vs. Elhem Mekhaled // Interim WBC World Female Super Lightweight Title
Underdog Elhem Mekhaled has a terrific 17-2 record. Mekhaled’s last loss came in 2023 in a championship bout versus Alycia Baumgardner. There is no shame in losing to Baumgardner, who is one of the top women boxers on the planet.
Chantelle Cameron was undefeated until her last, a majority decision defeat versus Katie Taylor. Cameron had beaten Taylor in the first fight via majority decision. Mekhaled is taking a step-up in class, which favors Cameron. Chantelle has knocked out 8 of her opponents. So consider a KO prop if you see odds.
Boxing Betting Pick: Chantelle Cameron -1600
Ashley Lane vs. Andrew Cain // Commonwealth, British Bantamweight Title
Ashley Lane has a ton of experience. The +850 underdog is 18-10-2. He’s won 3 bouts via knockout. The bad news if you’re looking to back Lane is that he’s also lost 6-of-10 via stoppage.
That’s not good going up against Andrew Cain. The -2000 favorite is 11-1 with 10 stoppage victories. Look for a KO prop on Cain to end Lane’s night early. Also, consider going under the total rounds.
Boxing Betting Pick: Andrew Cain -2000
Nathan Heaney vs. Brad Pauls // British Middleweight Title
On March 16 this year, Heaney and Pauls fought a fantastic 12 rounds that ended in a split decision draw. Heading into this bout, boxing handicappers have settled on making the 18-0-1 Heaney the favorite.
But Pauls appears to have more power. The +155 underdog has knocked out 10 of his opponents from his 18 victories. Not only that, but Pauls is also younger. A few tweaks from the first fight, and Pauls lifts his arm in victory.
Boxing Betting Pick: Brad Pauls +155
Paul vs. Perry: Fear No Man – Amalie Arena, Tampa, FL (DAZN)
- When: Saturday, July 20th, 2024. 8:00pm ET
Jake Paul vs. Mike Perry
Mike Perry has a single bout, a knockout loss to Kenneth Mitchell in 2015. Since then, though, Perry has turned into one of the world’s top bare knuckle fighters. He’s got an incredible chin and lands power shot after power shot against his opponents.
However, in this fight, Perry is up against a much taller and bigger human. Jake Paul towers over the dimunitive Perry. Not only that, but Jake has the length to keep Perry at the end of his jab.
The problem with Perry going into this fight is that although he’s got an iron chin, he doesn’t have much of a jab. Jake’s has gotten better with every fight. If Perry decides to move straight forward, he’s shown a tendency to do so in his bare knuckle bouts, Paul will step to the side and land a 1-2. Most don’t believe Perry suffers a knockout loss, but Paul has unquestionable power. JP gets the KO win.
Boxing Betting Pick: Jake Paul -340
