Vegas boxing odds are heavy favoring Andre Berto in the W.B.C welterweight title fight defense this Saturday night with the line favoring Berto at 7-2 odds. The Andre Berto vs. Juan Urango fight will pit two young  killers in their prime against one another under the bright lights of HBO cameras.  The Floridian Hatian Berto, 24-0, 19 KO’s, is the fast-rising star with the big dollars in the bank account while the Miami based Colombian Urango, 21-1, 16 KO’s, is the relatively unknown contender  hungry for some greenbacks of his own. The critics have all but given the fight to Berto on the basis that the slugger Urango is tailor made for his slick style. Vegas Sharps fight picks experts have done the homework and made the calls to the people in the know and have a knockout selection for you to win on.  The Andre Berto vs Juan Urango Vegas odds have the champ Berto at -380 on the moneyline.

Styles make fights as the saying goes and Andre Berto has shown some vulnerability to guys who can bang.  Even though  Berto is a talented fighter with an abundance of boxing skill but his chin is below-average. Even against a relatively light puncher in Luis Collazo, Berto was in big trouble from a punch to the chops.  Another  dilemma for Berto was the susceptibility that he showed when faced with a fast punching southpaw. While Juan Urango is far from a slick fighter he does have very fast hands and hits much harder than Collazo. Urango was outclassed by Ricky Hatton a couple years ago which is what seems to be the reason why the boxing betting odds on Berto are exaggerated. Juan Urango at this point  is a full grade better  than he was when he faced Hatton going from about a C+ to a B+. The Vegas odds for the Andre Berto vs Juan Urango fight give Andre Berto a 79% chance of beating Urango.

Andre Berto is a hard fighter to tag but he isn’t slick enough to evade Urango’s quick fists all night. Boxing is a hit sport and  Urango is one of the hardest pound-4-pound punchers in the sport. Andre will be playing defense with his “cute” moves but  eventually Urango’s pressure will get to him and he will tire and get hurt. Take a flyer bet on Urango at the inflated +300 boxing betting odds to take the wind out of the sails of the fast moving Berto. The Vegas odds for the Andre Berto vs Juan Urango fight have the boxing betting OVER\UNDER at 11.5 rounds with the OVER at -130 chalk.
