ATS PREDICTION

Sean Waugh Win

Predicted: 39-37

⚡100%

Sean Waugh, despite his limited professional record (1-0), enters this bout with significant amateur pedigree, having qualified for the Toledo Golden Gloves National Team. Jordan Palacios (2-5-0) has a losing professional record and is listed as inactive since 2024, raising concerns about his current form and fight readiness. Palacios also holds a 0% knockout rate in his wins, indicating a lack of finishing power. Given Waugh's amateur background and Palacios's inactivity and poor professional record, Waugh is expected to demonstrate superior fundamentals and activity to secure a victory on points in this 4-round super featherweight contest.

Sean Waugh to Win by Decision (0)

87%

Sean Waugh's amateur background suggests a solid boxing foundation and ability to outpoint opponents. Jordan Palacios's 0% knockout rate makes it unlikely he will stop Waugh, and Waugh's fresh professional record implies he will be looking to establish dominance over a less active opponent. Therefore, a decision victory for Waugh is the most probable outcome.

TOTAL PREDICTION

Over 3.5

87%

This is a 4-round professional boxing match. Jordan Palacios has no KOs in his two wins and has gone the distance in many of his fights, indicating durability despite his losing record. Sean Waugh, with only one professional fight and a strong amateur background, is likely to control the pace rather than seek an early knockout against an experienced, albeit inactive, opponent. Both factors point towards the fight going the scheduled distance.
