Prediction, pick for Edgar Berlanga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz

Two of the best Super Middleweights in the world, Edgar Berlanga and Hamzah Sheeraz, face off tonight. This event begins at 6:00 p.m. ET on DAZN PPV. Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepeda for the WBC Lightweight Championship is also taking place on this card.

Here is my favorite bet for tonight’s boxing event featuring Berlanga vs. Sheeraz.

Hamzah Sheeraz Moneyline (-155)

In his career, Sheeraz has a record of 21-0-1 with 17 knockouts. Sheeraz’s previous 15 wins have been by TKO/KO. Sheeraz is -155 on DraftKings Sportsbook to beat Berlanga.

With a two-inch height and reach advantage, this matchup favors Sheeraz. Although his last fight ended in a draw, Sheeraz has a great opportunity against a former title challenger to get back on track.

Sheeraz does his best work when he pressures opponents and unloads combinations. In his previous fight against Carlos Adames, Sheeraz only landed his punches at a 27.6 percent rate and power shots at a 28.7 percent clip. He must be more efficient against Berlanga to pick up the victory. Berlanga is talented, but the longer this fight lasts, the more it should benefit Sheeraz.
