Get Davis vs Martin predictions, picks, and odds for 6-15, including a fight prediction and best bet analysis.
Frank Martin might prove to be a pesky opponent, but Gervonta Davis has more than enough guile to weather storm early and deal some crushing blows late, as our boxing betting picks explain.Gervonta Davis faces off against Frank Martin in our featured boxing attraction this weekend, and this bout between undefeated lightweights will surely deliver in the action department.
Boxing odds have Davis as a significant -600 favorite, and Martin is a +425 underdog. Here are my best freeGervonta Davis hasn't held a recognized world title in the weight class before he was promoted to full champion by the WBA, making this his first official title defense at lightweight. His first defense of 2024 is also his first fight in over a year against undefeated contender Frank Martin, and he might be in for more of a fight than the odds indicate.
Martin looks like a fighter who can be a problem at 135. He has good power, hand speed, and good ring IQ. He is an aggressive stalker who likes to fight on the inside, unlike most of Davis' recent opponents. He made waves last year by walking out on a potential fight with Shakur Stevenson, a fight I wouldn't have favored him in, and instead held out for a tougher, more rewarding fight with Davis.
It wouldn't be surprising if Martin gives Davis a run for his money in the opening rounds of the fight, but being competitive is the best he can hope for. Martin may be champion one day, but it won't be this night, as Davis will make the first successful defense of his title at Martin's expense.While Davis hasn't been in the ring for 14 months, Martin's last fight was 11 months ago against Artem Harutrunyan, so both might be dealing with ring rust.
