Narratives and Predictions

Joshua vs. Wallin: A Path to Redemption

Joshua, following a mixed year, seeks to close 2023 with a win, emphasizing his journey back to the pinnacle of heavyweight boxing. Wallin, known for his only professional loss to Tyson Fury, is not to be underestimated. He could potentially upset the odds against a determined Joshua. Joshua appeared timid, or gun-shy, in his last few bouts and his button can absolutely be pushed. Expect a tactical bout, with Joshua using his reach advantage and experience to control the fight.

Our Pick: Joshua Dec

Wilder vs. Parker: A Test of Resilience

Wilder, coming off a period of inactivity, faces a deceiving challenge in Parker, a former world champion with a recent string of wins. Known for his god-given knockout power, Wilder will be keen to make a statement ahead of a potential March bout with Joshua. Parker’s resilience and ability to take a pinch will be key in this bout, but only one man alive seems to have a jaw tough enough to stand in front of Wilder. Expect Wilder to seek an early finish, with Parker aiming to be able to walk out of the ring on his own accord.

Our Pick: Wilder KO/TKO

Derek DaSilva is a hobby fighter turned betting addict, I mean enthusiast. After a few years of figuring out he can’t compete in the sports he loved, he decided to throw his money at them. He focuses on Boxing, MMA, football, and basketball  (in that order) and his claim to betting fame is losing a 9-team parlay by half a point and a f****** yard… I’ll never forgive you Nick Chubb.
