Boxing odds: Terence Crawford predictably a massive favorite over ‘Mean Machine’
Photo by Al Bello/Getty ImagesWBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford (35-0, 26 KOs) failed to get a “big” fight against other top 147 lbs boxers in 2019, so he’s going to end the year with a defense against mandatory challenger Egidijus Kavaliauskas (21-0-1, 17 KOs), who goes by the great nickname of “Mean Machine.” The Lithuanian hits hard but he’s shown unpolished skills and is coming off an ugly draw with Ray Robinson (no relation to “Sugar” Ray Robinson).
On paper, this fight is a mismatch, and the odds reflect as such. The odds from Pro Boxing Odds have Crawford at just above 16-to-1 to get the victory.
