I'm not familiar with this fight but since the thread was already created and the fight is going to happen this month, I think I'll put my interest to it.
The odds is good for the underdog, Oscar Valdez is still undefeated with 22 KOs from 28 wins, I think this kid has a decent KO rate.

I've watched some of the boxing videos of Oscar Valdez and I think I will also bet for him because until now he is still undefeated, I've absolutely agreed with you mate, and also based on their stats, Oscar Valdez has a lot of KO than Miguel Berchelt. But who knows will win between these 2 Mexicans because we all know that Mexicans are one of the top boxers all over the world and even Manny is having a problem when the enemy was a Mexican boxer. In this match, I will definitely bet on Oscar Valdez and the odds are quite good.

Miguel Berchelt has 1 loss in his career but he also has a high KO percentage.

33 KOs of 37 fights (https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/553222), that's very impressive, and there's a reason why he is the favorites in this fight.
By the way, here are some of the sites that already has the betting odds of this fight.

They both have good winning records. Both are the same from Mexico, only different areas of birth. For the match I thought it would be fun. They are both strong. But I wanted Barchelt to win. Because Valdez just gave up his title and moved up to WBC super featherweight. Besides that Barchelt has more competitive experience it will benefit him. I heard that he will also move up to the light class at 61.2 kg if there is an attractive offer. Looks like Barchlet wants to bring good results to enter the light class.

[ReiMomo]

This is an interesting fight for both countries, at this time, I'm in favor of Oscar Valdez since he has a good record than Miguel.

It's 19 days more to go before the fight and here is the countdown and odds from few bookies that at this moment have.

This match would be perfect for the two great fighters, but my thoughts will be favor for Berchelt based on the record he had. Boxing fans loved to pick which of these guys they'll able to see hard punches towards their choosen boxer, however we don't know what the challenger prepared in order to bet his opponent. Some also wanted to bet for the challenger, as hype stories tends to eradicate promoting some nice speculations.

That's not correct, Berchelt has the 1.27 betting odds hence, he is the favorites to win the fight, the lower the betting odds means the higher the chances to win and that makes Berchelt the favorites.

Check on this post, he attached the betting odds from different sportsbook/

That's one of the reason why i'm making a thread about this fight, though Oscar Valdez is moving up in weight to fight Berchelt, he had a decent chance of defeating the champ.

In terms of the quality of opponents both fighters have faced, Berchelt have the advantage and this maybe the reason why bookies have put him the favorite but with the KO rate of both fighters i think this won't go the distance and it could go either way and if odds for a KO win for Valdez is very tempting then i would not hesitate to pull the trigger  .

I have to spend more than thirty minutes checking about the status and style of both fighters, and I have to agree that this is going to be a making-of good fight both fighters love to go all out, both are slugger and do not back out of a fight although Miguel Berchelt is the champion and his title is on the line, Valdez has a good chance, I hope a link to a fight will be posted here, with both fighters having a good knock percentage, the fight will end in a knock out I'll go for Valdez, with a slight advantage.

I am not familiar too with these mexican fighters. The odd is interesting and it is obvious who has the upperhand and who is the underdog for this match.

Does anyone have notable highlights videos for both boxers? or they are searchable on YT? I'll watch it first before thinking if it's worth to take the odds for Valdez.

Oscar Valdez is the one who handed Genesis Servania his first career lose in boxing.

Servania, a former ALA fighter was once considered the future of Philippine boxing but that have changed when Oscar Valdez beat him.

To add to that, this fight has been brewing since last year, but has to be postponed because Berchelt was tested positive of Covid-19. So take this in consideration when you are going to bet on this fight. If the fight goes to distance, maybe just maybe it can affect him physically. So I hope that is not the case for Berchelt here.

But I agree, this is a battle of two champions,  Mexican blood flowing in their veins so this will be war and this will probably might not go to distance and end up with a KO. Odds are good for Oscar Valdez, (wink, wink),

Miguel Berchelt had that belt for a long time and he is pure destruction. Yes, both are slugger so this is really going to be a total Mexican brawl. Both has tougher chin as well and can get up of the canvass and continue to fight. Valdez is the one going up in weight here. But I still favour the champion, he has been in many wars and I would say more battle tested than Oscar Valdez.

I have not heard of both fighters but watching their videos made me excited on the fight because fighters are willing to slug it out, both fighters are knock out artist and flatfooted and will not back down to a fight, we love to see real fights and we might see this on this fight, bookmark it, I think Berchelt has the edge here.

toe-to-toe fight is really good to watch not a boring one. am not really familiar with these 2 but checking their KO stats, quite impressive. so we will see war inside the ring here. lets see...
berchelt is the favourite right now, but i believe the odds will change once the fight is getting near.

For what reason you think the odds will change? The line opened at 1.27 for Miguel Berchelt, it's not a 50/50 chances fight for both boxers according to bookies, so no reason the line will significantly changes, unless there some unexpected things that will happen.

For sure, when two Mexican faces in the ring, it's always a war and not a boring fight.

No surprised that Miguel Berchelt is the slight favourite, but we can't discount the fact that Oscar Valdez is also a champion and going up in weight class to challenge Berchelt. I think the winner here will be the most active fighters each and every round, throwing everything with bad intentions or to knock out each other. The odds will remain that though, I'm not seeing any flip as the fight gets near.

Thanks, bisdak!

I've watched the highlight and I can say that he has endurance and strong punches. I also didn't know that he's too popular or mean to say that his match with Servania from 2017 because it has a million views.

Damn, I'm missing a lot in the boxing industry. I only knew those popular matches.

Just curious, have we seen boxers who have been infected by the virus and then comeback and fight and then lose some steam because of the effect?

But I agree, this is a battle of two champions,  Mexican blood flowing in their veins so this will be war and this will probably might not go to distance and end up with a KO. Odds are good for Oscar Valdez, (wink, wink), 

That's what we love about Mexicans and that's why there are rivalries even from Mexicans themselves. But we love to see Mexicans vs Filipinos or Mexicans vs Puerto Ricans. But in this case I will go with the champion Berchelt he will be too much for Valdez. But this has the making of probably another Barerra vs Morales.
