Looking at Odds for GBP on DAZN This Thursday

Published

DAZN

Oscar de la Hoya and his Golden Boy Promotions are set for a full night of fights at L.A.’s Avalon Theater this Thursday night that sees the main events air on DAZN.

The main event is a 10 -round lightweight bout featuring Mercito Gesta (33-2-2) as he faces veteran Juan Antonio Rodriguez. Gesta lost to Jorge Linares in a world title fight in January of 2018 and back in 2012 he lost his first world title shot to Miguel Vasquez. After the Linares loss he returned to win an eight rounder in June and he has been off since then.

Gesta sees himself in the world title picture and will be heavily favored to start a winning streak on Thursday as Rodriguez, 29-7 overall, is coming off a layoff of more than two years. Prior to being on the shelf, he was 3-3 in his last half dozen fights, but that includes losses to Jezreel Corrales and Javier Fortuna, both of whom went on to win world titles.

Featherweight prospect Manuel Avila faces Jose Santos Gonzalez as the 23-1 Avila returns to action after a 15-month layoff. Avila took the lone loss of his career in May of 2017 when he faced GBP top gun Joseph “JoJo” Diaz. He bounced back to win an eight rounder in November of 2017 then he took all of 2018 off. In Gonzalez he is facing a fighter with a 23-7 overall record who has lost five of his last six fights.

A welterweight match-up featuring two undefeated fighters from the Golden Boy roster is set for eight rounds as Ferdinand Kerobyan (10-0) faces Blair Cobbs (9-0-1).  The odds for this one widely favor Kerobyan who hails from Armenia and brings a big amateur resume with him in terms of experience. The pro records look pretty much the same, with this clearly being a step up fight for both men.

Below are the odds at the sportsbooks as they stand a few days before fight time. Check your local listings for start times on DAZN.

 Welterweight 8 rounds – 

Ferdinand Kerobyan -3000 Under 5 ½ +400

Blair Cobbs +1500 Over 5½ -550

Featherweight 8 rounds –

Manuel Avila -1600 Under 5 ½ +525

Jose Santos Gonzalez +1050 Over 5½ -860

Lightweight 10 rounds –

Mercito Gesta -2000 Under 7½ +285

Juan Antonio Rodriguez +1250 Over 7 ½ -375
