Terry Flanagan vs Maurice Hooker Fight Preview

Strengths

Flanagan is aiming for a 6th successful defence of the lightweight title. His quick hands, rapid punches, and other combinations manage to overwhelm his opponents. The jabs, quick hands, and movement are some of the positive elements of Hooker, who has been spending a lot of time in the ring since 2016.

Weaknesses

The lack of punching power is the significant disadvantage for Flanagan. This statistic is aptly reminded by his relatively low KO record of 39%. Hooker is not the most physically imposing boxer and it remains to be seen if he can take the punches of the opponents.

Terry Flanagan vs Maurice Hooker Prediction

Flanagan is likely to be the fighter with more pace and aggression coming into the fight. He will be trying to get the better of Hooker, who is expected to adopt a defensive approach. The big problem for the latter will be his inability to cope with the powerful punches that may come his way. A pick for this match will be Flanagan. Let’s do the boxing odds comparison!

Terry Flanagan vs Maurice Hooker Betting Tips

The fight sees Flanagan come in as the overwhelming favourite for a win. Even though Hooker has a decent record coming into the match, the skills possessed by Flanagan can be too much for Hooker’s fragile body. A reason for Hooker failing in recent times is the inability to close out decisions sooner than expected. He is also fighting outside the United States for only the second time. Terry Flanagan vs Maurice Hooker predictions would go with a Flanagan win with Betfair.

The fight with Flanagan would be Hooker's biggest test to date, after going to a controversial draw with former world champion Darlys Perez back in November 2016 as part of the Andre Ward vs. Sergey Kovalev undercard at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Hooker has been unable to get knockout wins of late, but his opponent has not faced such issues. Flanagan has a strong KO record (39%) and OddsDigger’s Terry Flanagan vs Maurice Hooker betting tips expect a KO win for Flanagan with 10Bet.
