Ali Eren Demirezen vs. Kevin Johnson
Kevin Johnson is a big underdog to beat Ali Eren Demirezen because the +1000 choice has 35-18-1 record and has won a single bout in his last 7. The good news if you want to back the underdog is his last win did happen via knockout. But even then, Johnson will find it difficult to beat Demirezen. The favorite has won 15-of-16 with 12 TKO or KO victories. Demirezen is on a 4-match winning streak. He should knock out Johnson.
Boxing Betting Pick: Ali Eren Demirezen -2000
Eduardo Ramirez vs. Luis Melendez
Luis Melendez is 17-1 with 13 knockout or technical knockout victories. Since losing his third career fight, Melendez has rocked it, building a fantastic resume. On Saturday, the underdog faces the most skilled opponent he’s ever faced. 29-year-old Eduardo Ramirez is 26-2-3 with 12 knockout or technical knockout victories. Ramirez fought Miguel Marriaga last December. He should have no trouble beating the underdog.
Boxing Betting Pick: Eduardo Ramirez -455
Jesus Alejandro Ramos vs. Lucas Santamaria
Jesus Alejandro Ramos is undefeated with an 18-0 record. Ramos has won 15 of his 18 bouts via KO or TKO. But although Ramos should be the chalk, he faces a tough fighter on May 28. 13-2-1 with 7 knockout victories, Lucas Santamaria is a very skilled boxer. Since a unanimous decision loss to Paul Kroll in 2020, Santamaria has won 2 straight. Before writing the underdog’s chances off, check out who Santamaria beat in the last two bouts, Devon Alexander and Abel Ramos. The dog is worth a look.
Boxing Betting Pick: Lucas Santamaria +450
Gary O’Sullivan vs. Erislandy Lara
No odds yet for Lara versus O’Sullivan. Once odds drop, Erislandy Lara will be a massive favorite. The future hall of fame boxer is on a 3-match winning streak. Gary O’Sullivan has fought twice since 2020. O’Sullivan fell to Jaime Mungia via eleventh round TKO in the 2020 fight. Last year, O’Sullivan beat Nodar Robakidze via six-round unanimous decision. O’Sullivan is taking a huge step-up in class. Lara may have lost some of his speed and power. But he’ll handle the underdog no problem.
Boxing Betting Pick: Erislandy Lara
Gervonta Davis vs. Rolando Romero
Undefeated Rolando Romero has won 12 of his bouts via KO or TKO. Obviously, this is a massive step up from any opponent Romero has ever faced. Gervonta Davis is one of the best pound-for-pound boxers on the planet. Although a lightweight, the 26-year-old Davis has heavyweight power. Gervonta has won 24 of his 26 bouts via technical knockout or straight knockout. Davis is one of the few lightweights that can KO an opponent with a single punch.
Romero is taller, but he’s not a great boxer. He doesn’t move his feet well. Gervonta has fought some of the best boxers in the world, including Leo Santa Cruz. So Davis should dominate. Look for a knockout prop if you don’t want to accept the low odds.
Boxing Betting Pick: Gervonta Davis -909
