Chris Eubank Jr. faces Conor Benn in a very anticipated rematch today at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, United Kingdom. The co-main event is a Welterweight contest between Jack Catterall vs. Ekow Essuman. This is a 12-round bout for the WBO Global Welterweight title.

Here is my best bet for Saturday’s boxing fight between Jack Catterall vs Ekow Essuman.

Jack Catterall by Decision or Technical Decision (-140)

The former title challenger Catterall is coming off a victory against Harlem Eubank in July and is 5-1 in his previous six bouts. His opponent, Essuman, has a 22-1 record and is riding a three-fight winning streak. Essuman is the taller fighter in this matchup, as he is three inches taller (5’10” vs. 5’7″).

On DraftKings Sportsbook, Jack Catterall is a -225 favorite with Ekow Essuman being a +175 underdog. The over/under for this fight is 10.5 rounds, with the over being -550. Although Essuman is taller, Catterall is the overall better boxer and has more experience. Catterall has won 18 of his 32 fights by decision, and you can bet on him to beat Essuman by decision or technical decision at odds of -140.
