JOSEPH HOLMES VS CLAUDIO RIBEIRO PREDICTION

Joseph Holmes (8-3-0) has lost two of his last three bouts and will need to improve greatly if he is to get the better of Claudio Ribeiro (10-3-0). The Brazilian also lost last time out but won his six prior fights and will fancy his chances of bouncing back here. He has a strong ground game as well as decent striking skills which could be tricky for Holmes to navigate. The American is known for his striking ability but it is unlikely to be enough to overcome the stronger Ribeiro who has claimed a KO/TKO success in all 10 of his wins to date and that method has to be fancied once again.
