The time is approaching and casinos in Las Vegas are red hot ahead of the eagerly awaited fight between Sebastian Fundora, who will put his WBC and WBO super welterweight belts on the line against Chordale Booker in the main event of the “Premier Boxing Champions” card on March 22 at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas.
Sebastian “The Towering Inferno” will arrive with a record of 21 wins, one draw and one loss where he will defend his belts for the first time after becoming the unified champion after defeating Tim Tszyu. Meanwhile, the challenger of the night will present himself with credentials of 23 wins, 11 by KO, and one loss. It should be noted that Booker has won his six fights since losing to Austin “Ammo” Williams in 2022.
Who is the favorite for the Fundora vs Booker fight according to Las Vegas casinos?
The preparation of both fighters has been strenuous to reach this super welterweight title fight, which has caught the attention of boxing fans. According to betting company Draftkings, Sebastian Fundora will go into this fight as the favorite with a -1400 bet. Meanwhile, Chordale Booker has a low +750 odds as the fight approaches.
Given these numbers, a Booker victory would mean an extraordinary gain for people who bet some money on the challenger. It is also clear that the casinos will be shocked by this result, but as they say in Las Vegas, “the house never loses”.
