Jaron Ennis vs Uisma Lima Betting Tips
- Jaron Ennis WIN via KO/TKO in Rounds 7-12 @ 7/5
- Jaron Ennis WIN via KO/TKO in Rounds 7-9 @ 5/2
When it comes to betting tips for the Jaron Ennis vs Uisma Lima fight this weekend in Philadelphia, there is certainly money to be made judging by the latest odds.
This is particularly the case if you’re backing Lima as the underdog. As such a heavy favourite, making money on a ‘Boots’ victory will be difficult and will require some pinpoint method of victory selections.
As one of the world’s leading boxers in the latest pound-for-pound rankings, Ennis is understandably the overwhelming favourite here at odds as short as 1/30.
That being said, his next fight is his debut up at 154-pounds. Having become the unified champion at welterweight, Ennis is now aiming to dominate a second weight class up at light-middle.
Last time out was arguably a career-best performance for ‘Boots’. He emphatically dismantled Eimantas Stanionis to add the WBA belt to his IBF crown, vacating both in the aftermath in favour of a move up to super-welterweight.
Lima is a tough competitor for sure and has only lost once, but isn’t in Ennis’ league. With that in mind, here at SportsCasting we feel the Philadelphia man will put in another emphatic display in front of his hometown Philly crowd.
At odds of 1/4 to win the fight via KO/TKO, we have gone one further and selected a group of rounds we feel ‘Boots’ will secure the stoppage in.
Our resident boxing expert feels the knockout could come somewhere in the second half of the fight, with Ennis to win in Round 7-12 (7/5) and 7-9 (5/2) our standout predictions for the weekend.
Jaron Ennis to WIN via KO/TKO in Rounds 7-12 @ 7/5
Judging by the latest odds, Jaron Ennis’ next fight is one the 34-0 undefeated former unified world welterweight champion is expected to win easily.
It is clear to see why, given the fact he has won 30 of his 34 fights inside the distance. There is perhaps one question mark over whether Ennis’ power will convert up to 154-pounds. However, it is highly likely he continues to be a huge puncher at super-welterweight too.
Ennis is used to winning his fights inside the first half of the contest, but does have a few later stoppages too. With Lima being a tough competitor and a big puncher himself, ‘Boots’ may have to be more patient in this fight.
With that in mind, backing the American to win the fight via KO/TKO in the second half of the fight seems wise. At odds of 7/5 for this outcome, this certainly appeals.
Jaron Ennis to WIN via KO/TKO in Rounds 7-9 @ 5/2
Diving a little deeper into a prediction of Jaron Ennis securing a knockout in the second half of the fight, refining six rounds down to three will further enhance your odds.
Here at SportsCasting we feel Ennis won’t want to wait until the championship rounds, but will be keen to get the durable Uisma Lima out of there as soon as he has his man hurt.
If the fight does go into the second half, expect ‘Boots’ to get to work on the Angolan opponent sharpish. The 28-year-old is a clinical finisher and absolutely devastating when he sniffs blood.
At odds of 5/2 for an Ennis knockout in third quarter of the contest, we feel this presents huge value and some appealing odds for our second Ennis vs Lima betting tip.
