Prediction for the match which will take place on July 7. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Artem Harutyunyan

Artem Harutyunyan is a German boxer of Armenian origin, bronze medallist at the Rio Olympics. In his professional career he has only one defeat, which he suffered in his last fight - despite the fact that Artem provided a very worthy resistance to the star Frank Martin, he lost the championship rounds, and at the end he was knocked down at all.

Shakur Stevenson

Stevenson is an undefeated boxer, a reigning champion who has fought well in the amateurs as well, to say the least (he has an Olympic silver medal to his credit).

Everything seems to be going well for him, but he hasn't been given any big fights. In the division there are, for example, the same Jervonta Davis and Vasyl Lomachenko, but Shakur has to fight Artem Harutyunyan.

In his last fight, Stevenson defeated Edwin De Los Santos on points (16-1 record at the time).

Expert Betting Tips

Last fight showed that Artem has obvious problems in defence against top opposition. Stevenson is much more dangerous than Martin, who Arutyunyan failed to cope with. To take rounds Artem needs to press hard throughout the fight (defensive tactics would be suicidal) and somehow avoid the accurate punches that Shakur is so famous for. The task looks impossible, which is what the bookmakers are hinting at.
