Joshua vs Takam Betting Odds
A strained pectoral muscle took out Joshua’s scheduled opponent for Oct 28.
The Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev was a match for Joshua in height and weight. Takam, however, is smaller but he makes up for that with his unorthodox fighting style.
Anthony Joshua is still the heavy favorite going into Saturday’s matchup.
But Joshua himself has said that this bout against Takam would be tougher because of the fighting style and the predicament of a different opponent this close to a title fight.
Here are the odds for the no.3 ranked Takam and Joshua;
