Abdullah Mason vs. Jeremia Nakathila: Predictions, odds for fight in Top Rank main event
Abdullah Mason vs. Jeremia Nakathila will serve as the new headliner for Top Rank's card on Saturday, after the promotion was forced to pivot on Friday.
It will be a 10-round lightweight showdown held at the Scope Arena in Virginia. The fight will serve as the main event following the cancellation of the WBO lightweight world title fight between Keyshawn Davis and Edwin De Los Santos. Davis did not make weight and was stripped of the title.
Mason enters the fight unbeaten with a record of 18 wins and 16 knockouts during his career.
Nakathila has a record of 26-4, with 21 of those wins coming by knockout. He also has been defeated twice by knockout.
It will be Nakathila's first fight back in the United States after winning three consecutive fights in Southern Africa. He lost his last two fights to Ernesto Mercado and Raymond Muratalla.
Here are the current predictions, odds and how to watch Abdullah Mason take on Jeremia Nakathila.

Abdullah Mason vs Jeremia Nakathila predictions
DAZN: Mason expected to overcome experienced Nakathila
Mark Lelinwalla writes: 'Yes, Nakathila has an experience edge that Mason will have to overcome. Still, DAZN News has the Ohio native with a 2-1 edge heading into Saturday night's bout as he certainly possesses all the sweet science tools to deliver a scintillating statement.'
Bet365: Mason expected to earn quick victory
Rob Tebbutt writes: 'Not one to waste time, Mason has only been past four rounds in three of his 18 professional contests, and it's fair to say that I don't expect that to change this weekend.
"My lock is for the fight to be over inside the opening six minutes, but given both Muratalla and Mercado finished the job in two rounds, I fully expect Mason to one-up them and try and close the show in the opening round…'
Betfred: Mason to win it
Joey Mills writes: 'I am going to go for Mason to take this in round five at 8/1, allowing for the underdog to have brought a smidgen of self-preservation into his game.'
