The Bounty vs. Russian Vityaz - world box on 22Bet
Michael Hunter - Alexander Povetkin

On December 7, in Riyadh, the year’s biggest rematch between Andy Ruiz Jr. and Anthony Joshua will be the main event of the evening. Joshua will try to get back at the jumped-up Mexican and regain his titles. However, the battle undercard contains another gift for boxing fans - a fight between Michael Hunter and Alexander Povetkin for the status of the official contender for the WBA world title.

Michael Hunter is 31 years old, he participated in the Olympic Games and is a three-time US boxing champion, as well as a world professional boxing champion according to IBO. The American is very agile, diverse in tactics, hardy and efficient. His arsenal will make any opponent uneasy, even one like Povetkin. Hunter has an excellent track record - 18 wins (including 12 by knockout) and 1 defeat. Experts consider him one of the most promising boxers of the new generation. Hunter’s victory comes with odds of 1.39.

Alexander Povetkin is a world boxing legend, an Olympic Champion, a Russian and European boxing champion, as well as a WBA and WBC world champion. Alexander is already 40 years old. The fighter nearing the end of his career is still one of the most dangerous heavyweights. In August this year, the Russian fought in the UK, defeating the Englishman Hughie Fury. That fight showed that despite the age, the Russian Vityaz is still strong enough to last the full 12 rounds. Povetkin’s victory comes with odds of 3.096 in 22 Bet line.

Hunter’s strong suits are his youth, stamina and agility. The American’s goal in the upcoming fight is to avoid Povetkin’s blows, moving quickly around the ring and attacking with a series of jabs. Michael will most likely miss, but if he doesn’t go down and continues to quickly counterattack, he will get a chance to win by points.

Povetkin’s impressive experience speaks for itself, and his mighty blows are a threat to any opponent. The Russian is likely to pressure Hunter with his core and try to strike a blow to finish off his opponent. If Povetkin’s shots find their target, the American will either get immediately taken out or become much slower. In this case, the Russian Vityaz will manage to win ahead of time.

Man City - Man United

Manchester City, 11 points off the top of the table, host their neighbours United, in the first Manchester Derby of the season.

Both teams come into the game off the back of victories in midweek fixtures. City won 4-1 away at Burnley and kept up the incredible record of their matches averaging 4 goals a game.

United faced their old boss Mourinho, now in charge of Tottenham and ended up 2-1 winners thanks to 2 goals from Marcus Rashford.

Rashford has been in fine form as of late for the Red Devils, scoring 4 in his last 4 Premier League games, which leaves him just 1 goal behind his last seasons tally already.

The midweek win for Pep’s men was a welcomed one, which saw them win on the road for the first time in 3 games in all competitions. The Etihad has been a happy hunting ground for United in recent years with last year’s defeat being their only one there since 2014.

City know they cannot afford to let the gap widen from Liverpool at the top so only a victory will do, but United are unbeaten against the ‘top 6’ sides this season so far.

Will Manchester be red or blue following the game?
