Scotney vs. Lefebvre Betting Analysis
Ellie Scotney
Scotney is an English professional boxer with a record of 8-0 and zero KO wins to her name so far at the age of 26. Before turning professional, she won an ABA Championship as an amateur and enjoyed a successful UK regional amateur career. She has yet to fight outside of England and will be enjoying a home advantage this weekend.
Scotney is listed at 5’5” with an unknown reach measurement while fighting out of the orthodox stance. She has completed 70 professional rounds since making her debut in 2020. She is currently the IBF women’s super bantamweight title holder and will look to unify with the WBO belt this weekend.

Lefebvre is a French boxer with a professional record of 18-0, including one KO win under her belt at the age of 30. She is the current WBO women’s super bantamweight champion and has held that belt since 2021. She is currently the #3 ranked super bantamweight in the world, according to The Ring.
Lefebvre appears in the records as a 5’6” orthodox with an unknown reach. She will be the slightly bigger fighter in the ring on Saturday evening, so keep that in mind while making Lefebvre fight bets. She has a lot more experience than her opponent this weekend with 155 professional rounds under her belt.

Scotney vs. Lefebvre Betting Preview
Let’s take a closer look at this matchup by breaking down the betting lines, studying film, and even discussing certain Scotney betting strategies that you can implement going forward in her career as a championship-level fighter.
Starting with the boxing odds for this bout, Scotney is going into this weekend as the massive -1450 betting favorite over the +840. This bout is also heavily favored to go to a decision at -800 and both fighters have big underdog odds to win by KO.
Stylistically, Scotney has a very difficult fighting style to fight against. She is very active, moves around the ring well, and has quick hands. She is still developing as a fighter and betting her to win by KO soon might be a huge pick to make as she continues to learn how to sit down on her punches and throw with more power. That can be your free boxing pick in one of her future fights in the next few years.
Lefebvre is a tough world champion with experience in big fights and the ability to fight out of tough situations. She is not as polished as Scotney, but she makes her style work for her and gets her hand raised at a 100% clip.
The Scotney vs Lefebvre prediction seems pretty easy to make when you break this fight down on paper and even what it looks like on tape, but the betting lines make this very difficult.
Scotney vs. Lefebvre Betting Prediction
After looking closely at this super bantamweight matchup from all angles, the official Scotney vs Lefebvre prediction is that Scotney will outclass the French world champion to unify belts at super bantamweight.
Scotney is going to be too fast and too overpowering with her work rate for Lefebvre to keep up with throughout 10 rounds. The early rounds might be interesting because Lefebvre knows she needs them, but the skills of Scotney make this pick easy to make.
Since there’s no value in a Scotney moneyline bet, you might get away with taking her to win by decision. Those odds will be around -420 but that can be a good pick to add to a parlay of some sort this weekend.
- Pick: Scotney to win by decision -420.
