By examining both, we may be able to identify features of each man’s profile or spot differences that could be significant when they step inside the ring.</p> <p>Masoud’s fight figures are first…</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>Age - 29 vs 29</li> <li>Height - 5'7" (170cm) vs 5'7" (170cm)</li> <li>Weight - 121.9lbs (55.3 kgs) vs 121.9lbs (55.3 kgs)</li> <li>Reach - 71.0" (180cm) vs 65.0" (165cm)</li> <li>Stance - Orthodox vs Southpaw</li> <li>Record - 14-0-0 vs 12-1-0</li> </ul> <h2>Shabaz Masoud vs Peter McGrail: Betting Preview</h2> <p>There are a few things to note about how these two compare.</p> <p>They share identical physical stats for their body composition, except for reach. With Masoud able to fight at a distance, this could come into his advantage. Additionally, his unbeaten record could give him confidence to take the title that McGrail is defending.</p> <p>However, the contrasting fight stances of both boxers add a further interesting element to this upcoming bout. There can be some awkwardness to the fight, as angles can become challenging for both to navigate.</p> <p>Masoud’s last five fights:</p> <ul> <li>Liam Davies - Win (SD, 12) - Nov 2024</li> <li>Marvin Solano - Win (Points, 8) - Jul 2024</li> <li>Jose Sanmartin - Win (SD, 10) - Nov 2023</li> <li>Jack Bateson - Win (TKO, 12) - Nov 2022</li> <li>Yoan Boyeaux - Win (TKO, 2) - Mar 2022</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>McGrail’s last five fights:</p> <ul> <li>Ionut Baluta - Win (MD, 10) - Jun 2025</li> <li>Rhys Edwards - Win (UD, 10) - Dec 2024</li> <li>Brad Foster - Win (TKO, 2) - Sep 2024</li> <li>Marc Leach - Win (UD, 10) - Apr 2024</li> <li>Jarico O'Quinn - Loss (TKO, 5) - Dec 2023</li> </ul> <h2>Shabaz Masoud vs Peter McGrail: Betting Predictions</h2> <p>The <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/boxing/grade-a-fights/shabaz-masoud-v-peter-mcgrail-9733217">Shabaz Masoud vs Peter McGrail betting odds</a> have Masoud as the favourite, and we predict he will win the fight to become the new EBU European Super Bantamweight Champion.</p> <p>He has been unstoppable during his boxing career at the moment, winning every bout that has been put in front of him.
