at first glance you may think wow Scott has a 35-0 record and he is the underdog?!? But looking into it further you see that Scott has fought a bunch of tomato cans. He has pretty much made a living fighting guys that are 3 or 4 notches below him. Scott is a good boxer and has a very good jab. He likes to work from the outside and some call it boring but it's effective. He doesn't have much pop in his punches.
Glazkov on the other had has a 14-0 record and is coming up. HE has a substantial amateur background and has won a silver and bronze medal. He is not your typical european stiff boxer. He has some decent movement and has a good jab along with very good power. I think power is a huge difference in this fight. I think they are pretty much even in the boxing ability department but Glazkov has that power that he can depend on.
One thing that kind of scares me is that the over 8.5 is heavily juiced so the books are expecting this to go to a decision which should technically favor Scott. But I trust Glazkov to figure out Scott after a couple rounds and pretty much walk him down and win a decision with a chance of a late stoppage. Scott's motivation has often been questioned and he supposedly has a renewed interest in fighting again...but IMO I would never want to back a fighter that has had motivational issues before...wouldn't be surprised if he quit on the stool.
Glazkov at -165 is pretty much the best you will ever get from him again.
