Terence Crawford vs. David Avanesyan Preview

Crawford heads into Saturday’s showdown as the bookmakers’ heavy favorite. The 35-year-old American is priced at -1400 to secure the win, highlighting his superiority over Avanesyan.

On the flip side, “Ava” is the clear underdog at +700. The 34-year-old Russian comes into this bout on a six-match winning streak, but there is no denying that Crawford is his toughest test to date.

It is worth noting that Crawford’s last fight came more than a year ago. “Bud” defeated Shawn Porter by TKO back in November 2021, stopping the American in the tenth round to retain his WBO welterweight title.

Meanwhile, Avanesyan last took to the ring earlier this year – beating Oskari Metz in March. The Russian took just two minutes to stop Metz, meaning he didn’t have to struggle to retain his European welterweight title.

Now that you’re up to speed on both fighters, let’s get stuck into the top picks for Terence Crawford vs. David Avanesyan.

Crawford vs. Avanesyan Predictions

Here are the best Crawford vs. Avanesyan picks. I have selected two relatively safe bets, as well as one longshot. The longshot pick has the potential to land you a tasty profit, so be sure to stick around until the end.

Terence Crawford to Win in 1-6 Rounds (+160)

Of course, Avanesyan will be desperate to put up a decent fight on Saturday, but I expect Crawford to make quick work of the bout. The 35-year-old knocked out Julius Indongo in the third round before stopping Kell Brook in the fourth, so it shouldn’t take him long to dispatch Avanesyan.

Total Rounds – Under 7.5 (-110)

Since I’m backing Crawford to seal the deal inside six rounds, it also makes sense to back the under 7.5 rounds wager. Let’s not forget that three of Crawford’s previous seven fights ended before the seventh round.

Terence Crawford to Win in Round 6 (+800)

Admittedly, my final Crawford vs. Avanesyan betting pick is something of a longshot, but it could easily come to fruition. Crawford’s moneyline price is far too low to bother with, so why not take a punt on the winning round?

Crawford stopped Amir Khan in the sixth round back in 2019, meaning four of his past 20 fights have ended in the sixth round. With that in mind, it wouldn’t be a shock if he secure the victory in the sixth round on Saturday.
