What’s the payout for Canelo being KO’d by Berlanga?
Edgar Berlanga is convinced that he will beat Canelo by knockout and the bookmakers share their odds for the epic fight.
The T-Mobile Arena is gearing up for the highly anticipated showdown between Saúl ‘Canelo’ Álvarez and Edgar Berlanga on Saturday, September 14. Once again, Las Vegas will host one of the most eagerly awaited boxing events of recent months. The Mexican champion will put his super middleweight belts on the line, along with The Ring title and the Tamaulipas belt.
Canelo predicts Berlanga KO
The high expectations surrounding the bout have fuelled the pre-fight build-up, with both men stoking tensions. The Puerto Rican-born Berlanga knows that Álvarez represents his greatest challenge yet and sees this as a crucial opportunity to further raise his profile in the sport.
Canelo confidently predicted that he will end the fight between the seventh and eighth rounds. Berlanga, who has 17 knockouts in 22 fights, has drawn attention from oddsmakers, who have released high odds in the event of a victory by the Puerto Rican boxer.
Odds on Berlanga win by knockout
Berlanga is expectedly confident that he can defeat Álvarez via knockout, and betting odds reflect the explosive nature of this fight. According to US betting houses, if Berlanga wins by KO, the odds are set at +5000. For a technical knockout, the odds are estimated at +3500. Clearly, the Puerto Rican is not the favourite, which explains the high payouts for bets in his favour.
Bets on the Mexican fighter offer less lucrative returns. If Canelo wins by KO, the payout is around +200, and by technical knockout, it’s at -125. The highest odds we’ve seen are +25000, in the unlikely event that Canelo is knocked down more than twice and Berlanga wins by decision. Where’s your money going?
