Glanton: "He's fast and hits hard, especially to the body. I respect what he's accomplished in the ring. But I'm not the first to face an undefeated opponent. They call me 'Bulletproof' for a reason. I've fought all over the world, been through fire and brimstone, and nobody has ever managed to stop me early."
⭐ Editorial Prediction
The bet on over 10.5 rounds seems like a well-founded prediction, considering Brandon Glanton's phenomenal resilience and his ability to take elite fighters to the judges' scorecards. Despite his reputation as a fearsome knockout artist, Jai Opetaia will find it extremely challenging to finish an opponent who has never been knocked out, even in the toughest battles. Most likely, the champion will opt for a strategy of methodically accumulating points from a distance, aware of the risks involved in trading blows with the sturdy American.
