Sheeraz vs. Wilson-Bent Betting Analysis
Hamzah Sheeraz
In one of the bigger British events on the boxing schedule, the 23-year-old has a chance to put himself on the map with a great performance.
He is a tall, light-middleweight that has a lot of raw talent, along with some very good fundamentals.
Sheeraz 12 KO’s Streak
Sheeraz has 12 KO’s already at this point in his career and seems to be one of the more dangerous punchers in the division.
What is more impressive than his power is his technique. He lands picture-perfect shots, cleanly on the chin with both hands.
His lead hand is going to be his biggest weapon when keeping Wilson-Bent at range and landing jabs.
The European champion has 9 KO victories out of his last 10 fights. This proves the danger he has in his hands and will always look for a finish.
Against a very hittable opponent this weekend, it is a big possibility that this fight will be finished.
River Wilson-Bent
Even if Wilson-Bent is 5 years older than Sheeraz, he is giving up some experience in the ring on Saturday.
The amount of rounds and the caliber of opponents that he has faced is nothing compared to Sheeraz. This is going to be a big question mark when predicting how he will look in the ring.
Wilson-Bent isn’t quite as long as Sheeraz, but he looks to be a little stronger and in better shape, which is more likely due to him having a more mature body than the youngster.
Significant Speed Disadvantage
Wilson-Bent will have a pretty significant speed disadvantage in the ring, with an awkward “jumpy” stance when he decides to start letting his hands go.
The biggest questions are if Wilson-Bent has the power to hurt Sheeraz, and how difficult it will be for him to deal with that lead hand from Sheeraz. This is going to be a big test for Wilson-Bent, and if he can be competitive at least, it will show a lot about the steps he has made in his career.

Wilson-Bent Odds Breakdown
Bent has his work cut out for him, but Sheeraz has shown that he can get caught coming into a punch and get dropped. There is always a chance for a straight right hand down the middle landing.
Make sure to not make any boxing picks until you do your research on both fighters and what they have been up to recently.
Wilson-Bent has made a few comments to suggest he wasn’t prepared for this fight, and that seems like he’s making an excuse for a bad performance on Saturday night.
Sheeraz vs. Wilson-Bent Betting Predictions
Sheeraz vs Wilson-Bent bets will mostly go on the side with Sheeraz. He is clearly the more talented boxer and has some of the sharpest techniques in the world for his age.
His lead hand is going to prove to be elite and will control the fight. With the moneyline being so one sides, a prop bet for Sheeraz to win via TKO/KO is the best bet to make.
That still doesn’t have any significant value, but if you pair that up with another pick in a parlay, then you have some very good odds.
Who to Bet On?
I believe this fight is going to be controlled by Sheeraz early on and will be a one-sided performance.
The knockdowns will be coming in the second and third round; after that is going to depend how tough Wilson-Bent is for how long this fight will last.
Boxing Pick: Sheeraz (-120)
