Azat Hovhannisyan vs Eduardo Baez

Zuffa Boxing head Dana White has always spoken about putting on 50-50 fights, and here is a pretty good example of that. In all honesty, neither is a top-level performer. They sit on the fringe of world-class, and both are tough and durable, which is why this is an even-money fight. Baez is no pushover for anyone, and as he’s coming off a very good win over Alex Dilmaghani in, of all places, Lahore, Pakistan, he brings some form into this contest. Hovhannisyan himself is coming off three straight defeats and one very good bounce-back win against the previously undefeated Aidos Medet. Hovhannisyan has six defeats on his record, and Baez has 7, so both know how to win and how to lose. I’m going to go with the California-based Armenian Hovhannisyan to nick this on points in a very tough contest.
