Browne State Confidence

Extending his online wagering reputation as an undefeated champion are Browne’s boastful predictions. Browne told everyone to not blink as a knockout win is coming fast.

Matchup to Watch

In this situation, Browne brings the boxing betting matchup edge in motivation and recent form. Pascal is clearly past his prime. He has failed to show he can win a championship fight at this level. Of course, Browne has his share of problems outside the ring. But that should not detract from the truth of his prime championship abilities.
