Artur Beterbiev vs Callum Smith Round Betting Tips
On paper, this is is a fight that the majority of boxing fans are expecting Artur Beterbiev to win convincingly. The best boxing betting sites agree, favouring Beterbiev quite comfortably at a price of 2/9. This of course means that Callum Smith is the big underdog to claim the upset on his travels to Canada.
However, here at SportsLens we can see Callum Smith pulling off the upset on his travels to Quebec, becoming a two-division world champion in the process. Both men are huge punchers, arguably the two hardest hitters in the 175-pound division.
The reason we are siding with ‘Mundo’ to win this fight via stoppage in Rounds 5-8 is because there have been signs of late that Beterbiev is perhaps past his best. Yes, the Russian-Canadian is 19-0 with 19 KO’s, but he isn’t the quickest or most elusive fighter at light-heavyweight.
Smith has underrated boxing ability, as well as frightening power. His left hook is incredibly dangerous, and we can see Smith getting Beterbiev at the perfect time, as the unified champion approaches his 39th birthday. If Smith is to win this fight, it will likely come in the early to mid rounds.

Beterbiev vs Smith Individual Round Betting Tip
Given the fact our round betting tip for Beterbiev vs Smith is for Callum Smith to win by knockout in Rounds 5-8, selecting an individual round in which the fight will end presents boxing bettors with even better value than just fight outright or method of victory.
Artur Beterbiev vs Callum Smith presents huge value for bettors, especially those backing the Brit to get the job done. The latest Artur Beterbiev vs Callum Smith odds suggest that Smith is highly unlikely to win the fight, but there is extreme value in backing the Liverpudlian, which we firmly believe will come to fruition.
There always comes a point in boxing when a fighter ages overnight. Beterbiev looked more vulnerable than ever against Anthony Yarde, before he pulling a stoppage out of the bag in Round 8. However, Smith is a far bigger puncher than Yarde is, and is also a devastating finisher, so won’t let Beterbiev off the hook if he tags him heavily.
If Callum Smith is to win the fight via knockout, it is likely going to be in the early to mid rounds. Picking an individual round for the fight to end is tricky, but there is sensational value in selecting one specific round. For us here at SportsLens, we see that being Round 6.
