Spence a 5:1 favorite over Ugas
WBC/IBF welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr is a -550 favorite to rip the WBA welterweight belt from the waist of WBA ruler Yordenis Ugas (+400) on Saturday night in Dallas.
Also in the most evenly matched fight on the card is WBA regular welterweight champion Radzhab Butaev faces mandatory challenger Eimantas Stanionis in a virtual pick’em fight. The winner will be in line to fight the Spence-Ugas winner although a clash for undisputed status against WBO champ Terence Crawford may come first.
In other action, lightweight contender Isaac Cruz is a 14:1 favorite over former champion Yuriorkis Gamboa, lightweight contender Jose Valenzuela is a 9:1 favorite over Francisco “Bandido” Vargas, welterweight Cody Crowley is a 4:1 favorite over “The Riverside Rocky” Josesito Lopez, and Brandun Lee is a whopping 25:1 pick against Zachary Ochoa.
Butaev-Stanionis and Lee-Ochoa will air on Showtime. The rest of the bouts will be featured on a $74.99 pay-per-view telecast.
