Jose Pedraza vs. Mikkel LesPierre, Bell vs. Bernaldez: Insider releases best bets on Thursday's bouts

Former two-division champion Jose Pedraza (26-3, 13 KOs) fights Mikkel LesPierre (22-1-1, 10 KOs) in a 10-round main event Thursday from Las Vegas (ESPN, 8 p.m. ET).

Before you bet, you NEED to see what Peter Kahn has to say. A 2019 Boxing Writers Association of America Cus D'Amato Manager of the Year nominee, Kahn is a longtime insider who has his finger on the pulse of what's going on inside and outside the ring. Kahn manages nearly 10 percent of Top Rank's fighters, and he can be seen and heard weekly as co-host of "The Fight Guys" show on FITE TV.

Not surprisingly, Kahn is uncanny when it comes to picking fights. He is 7-0 on SportsLine boxing picks since the hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic, extending his highly profitable run. Last year, for example, Kahn called Deontay Wilder knocking out Dominic Breazeale in the first round, a massive 22-1 long shot bet. "Based on everything Wilder has expressed leading up to the fight and his true dislike and beef with Breazeale, expect Wilder to come out and try to get rid of him early to make a statement," Kahn told readers. The result: Wilder ended it at the 2:17 mark with a violent one-punch knockout, and everyone who followed Kahn's advice cashed huge.

For Thursday's six-fight card, we can tell you Kahn likes Albert Bell to handle Mark Bernaldez in a 10-round junior lightweight bout. "The story of this fight will be Bell's footwork, height and reach advantages and hand speed," Kahn tells SportsLine.

Kahn also has released a VERY confident pick on Pedraza-LesPierre, including a prediction on how long the fight lasts! You ABSOLUTELY need to see his best bets before you make any picks of your own.
