Robson Conceicao vs O’Shaquie Foster Betting Analysis
New WBC super featherweight champion Robson Conceicao will take on the man he beat for the title a second time this weekend in O’Shaquie Foster after a highly contentious first fight between the pair back in July.
Then-champion O’Shaquie Foster seemed to have done enough in what was an extremely disengaging fight after out-landing Robson Conceicao in ten of the twelve rounds. However, the judges disagreed, with both Paul Wallace and Anthony Lundy edging the fight to the Brazilian and stripping Foster of the title he’d picked up a year earlier against Rey Vargas.
That result, by bookmakers at least, is expected to be reversed this weekend however, with O’Shaquie Foster coming in as the sizeable -410 favorite ahead of this rematch, and champion Robson Conceicao coming back as a +300 underdog.
Conceicao Gets Lucky at the 4th Time of Asking
After previously coming up short on three separate occasions against the likes of Oscar Valdez, Shakur Stevenson, and Emanuel Navarrete to claim a share of the world title, Robson Conceicao finally got lucky on his 4th time of asking, edging out O’Shaquie Foster in a fight many observers believed he lost.
That said, Conceicao has shown himself to be an extremely technical fighter in the ring, and one who is incredibly hard to beat also, with his gold medal from the 2016 Olympic Games proving testament to that.
Foster Gunning for Revenge
After out-landing Conceicao by a significant 25% to 11% margin in that first fight, it’s fair to say that champion O’Shaquie Foster felt a little hard done by, nevermind bewildered, by the judges’ scorecards at the end of the fight.
Foster said after the result that he believed he had basically pitched a shutout throughout, with former and current champions Shakur Stevenson, Regis Prograis, Timothy Bradley, Jamel Herring, and Shawn Porter all in agreement with that assessment.
Unsurprisingly, Foster called for an immediate rematch and stated he will leave no doubt this time around.
Robson Conceicao vs O’Shaquie Foster Expert Prediction
Despite the bad intentions and obvious laser-like focus of O’Shaquie Foster heading into this fight, he’s not really a finisher, and we can see this one going very similarly to the first, only with Foster potentially getting more love from the judges this time around than he did in that first fight.
Robson Conceicao, as stated previously, is an incredibly tricky operator to break down in the ring, and one who employs an agitated body attack also which often puts fighters off crashing the pocket against him.
However, he is very low volume, and employs a technical style that is not particularly pleasing to the eye, something that cost him against both Emanuel Navarrete and Oscar Valdez in recent fights.
O’Shaquie Foster’s greater urgency this time around should get him over the line, but it’ll likely come via a slow, technical fight that the judges need to be called in again on.
