Preview Of Richardson Hitchins vs. Gustavo Lemos
Richardson Hitchins is an American boxer who has a 17-0 professional record and seven knockouts demonstrated to the boxing world back in September 2023 that he is a genuine fighter when he defeated Jose Zepeda by a majority decision.
When watching Hitchins fight, the first thing that strikes you is his incredible hand speed.
Even though Hitchins doesn’t have the strongest weapon, his sheer speed, particularly when he throws his right cross, causes his opponents to take damage before they ever realize what hit them.
Hitchins is a very difficult problem for anybody to solve because he combines speed and good defensive technique, as seen by his perfect record. Our forecast for the battle between Hitchins and Lemos is that Hitchins’ five-inch height advantage will play a significant role, possibly even being the reason he wins this coming weekend.

Gustavo Lemos is an Argentinian boxer with a 29-0 professional record that includes 19 KO wins; although he hasn’t competed against many well-known fighters, his strength will undoubtedly stand up against any light opponent.
Lemos isn’t particularly tall for his weight class, but he usually makes up for it by using head movement to bobble and weave into close range, which permits him to strike his powerful shots.
Lemos’ stellar record indicates that this tactic has enabled him to prevail in all of his professional bouts; nevertheless, our Richardson Hitchins vs. Gustavo Lemos prediction indicates that Lemos may find it difficult to get Hitchins to fight at his favoured range.
Predicting The Upcoming Boxing Match
We officially predict that Richardson Hitchins will prevail over Lemos in the match.
Hitchins’ defence is so strong that it’s difficult to see Lemos being able to catch him cleanly enough to put him out. Nevertheless, we believe Hitchins to win by decision, which is now available at -145, is your best option because he isn’t the strongest puncher.
