Ben Whittaker vs Benjamin Gavazi Fight Prediction
Ben Whittaker goes into the fight ranked by the WBA, WBC and the IBF at light heavyweight. Also, as this is his Matchroom debut, we expect the exciting stylist to want to put in a show for the highlights reel. Benjamin Gavazi is fighting outside of Germany for the first time, and Whittaker will be his toughest opponent so far. While Whittaker will surely look to get the KO, we think it is unlikely, as Gavazi’s long unbeaten streak indicates that he is not easy to get rid of. We predict over 7.5 rounds.
