Jaron Ennis to Win In Rounds 1-6 (+160)
Since Ennis is such a big favorite, let’s see what he is to win by KO/TKO/DQ. Ennis is still -390 to win by finish, which are still lopsided odds. So, that is why I’m taking Boots to win this fight in Rounds 1-6, which is priced at +160 on DraftKings Sportsbook.
This is the best value play in this contest, and it is because Ennis has proved to be an earlier finisher in his career. In Ennis’ career, 31 of his 34 victories have come in Rounds 1-6. Ennis is one of the best knockout artists in boxing, and at just 28 years old, he continues to improve with each fight.

He also lands 43.3 percent of his power punches, which is over seven percent better than the 154-pound average. Moving up a weight class shouldn’t be a problem for “Boots” since he is such an incredible all-around boxer.
