Boxing betting enthusiasts will be presented with an enticing event to take advantage of this Friday, July 18th, when boxers Danny Williams and John McDermott face off for the British Heavyweight Title.  The fight will take place at Goresbrook Leisure Center, Dagenham.  Boxing betting fans will be keeping a very close eye on the boxing odds over the next couple of days.  Currently, boxing betting experts say the odds are in favor of Williams.  However, as many fans know, odds are never set in stone and could still change radically.

Boxing betting activity will no doubt intensify in the months after the fight because the winner of the fight this Friday night may very well go on to face the current WBC Heavyweight Title holder.  Williams, with a record of 39-6, 31 by knockout (an impressive record for boxing betting fans and an important factor when looking at boxing odds) isn’t giving up his title or his possible upcoming second shot at the world title after a defeat by the giant Vitali Klitschko in 2004.

McDermott, whose record stands at 25-3, 16 by knockout, is looking at an opportunity to make off with two titles, but first he must get through Williams; a feat boxing betting followers are wagering against.  With high endurance and even faster hands, McDermott has some advantages that could turn the tables of boxing odds.  However, having advantages isn’t enough if he doesn’t make use of them and this is what many boxing betting buffs bank on.  McDermott will have to put forth some real effort.

On the flip side of the coin, boxing betting experts know that Williams will have to make an impressive turn-around and become a more consistent, reliable fighter if he is to defend what is currently his.  Though the boxing odds may have him in favor and the boxing betting trend seems to be somewhat inclined to his side, one should keep in mind his win/loss trends and how a monumental victory is usually followed by a devastating defeat.  His win over Mike Tyson in 2004 is a notable accomplishment that boxing betting aficionados still keep in mind when considering who to favor.

These next few days, boxing betting can go either way as fanatics wait for the odds to close in and begin to look at both contenders’ pros and cons.

If you’re looking for boxing odds, SBG Global has boxing betting lines on the Danny Williams vs. John McDermott bout.  The lines put Danny Williams as the favorite by -600 and John McDermott as the underdog by +400 at this point.
