Carl Frampton a 1/25 Favourite To Defeat Gutierrez on July 29th
Published on July 22nd, 2017 4:31 pm ESTWritten By: Dave Manuel

In the eyes of the bookmakers, this fight is about as big of a mismatch as they come, as Frampton is currently a 1/25 favourite to win.
This is not particularly surprising given that Frampton is currently the world's #2 ranked Featherweight fighter and will be fighting in front of his home fans in Belfast.
Frampton will enter this fight with a nearly flawless record of 23-1-0, with his lone blemish coming via a Majority Decision loss to Leo Santa Cruz in January of 2017.
Andres "Jaguarcito" Gutierrez, on the other hand, is significantly down the Featherweight ranking ladder, as he is currently #23 in the rankings. Gutierrez is entering his tilt against Frampton with a record of 35-1-1, with his last fight resulting in a TKO win against Wallington Orobio.
Frampton has faced a much higher caliber of opponent than Gutierrez has, however, and is the clear favourite to win this fight.
