Dylan Arbuckle vs Nico Leivars Prediction
This Super Bantamweight eliminator between Dylan Arbuckle and Nico Leivars is a fascinating clash of styles. Arbuckle's power and aggressive approach will be tested by Leivars' technical boxing and defensive acumen. While Leivars' skills could make for a competitive fight, Arbuckle's proven knockout ability, particularly with body shots, is expected to be the deciding factor.
ATS PREDICTION
Dylan Arbuckle Win
โก70%
Dylan Arbuckle's superior knockout percentage (33.33% vs 14.29%) and reputation as a body puncher give him a significant edge in power. While Leivars is a skilled boxer with good footwork, Arbuckle's relentless pressure and ability to wear down opponents, particularly with his body attack, will likely prove too much over the scheduled 12 rounds. Arbuckle's slightly greater professional experience and recent stoppage win further bolster this prediction. He is also a big super bantamweight, which suggests his power will be impactful in this division.
SPREAD PREDICTION
Arbuckle by KO/TKO (+3)
65%
Arbuckle's power and aggressive style are well-suited to securing a stoppage victory. His history of body shot knockouts suggests he can systematically break down opponents. While Leivars is durable, the sustained pressure and power from Arbuckle are expected to lead to a late-round stoppage, giving Arbuckle a significant advantage in rounds won before the finish.
TOTAL PREDICTION
Over 8.5
75%
Both fighters are undefeated and have shown resilience. Leivars has gone the distance in most of his fights, and Arbuckle, while a power puncher, often works to break down his opponents.
