Diego Pacheco vs Trevor McCumby Predictions

Standing at 6’4″, Pacheco carries the shine of a future star—tall, fast, and armed with highlight-reel power. But McCumby? He’s cut from a different cloth. A throwback kind of fighter with grit, attitude, and just enough chaos to make things dangerous. He’s awkward, he’s raw, and he hits like he doesn’t care about looking good—just making it count.

In many ways, the 32-year-old McCumby resembles a super middleweight version of Rolly Romero—wide punches, unorthodox footwork, and mechanics that make purists cringe… right up until he lands a bomb and flips the fight on its head. McCumby punches like a mule and believes in his power. Enough so that even a young, confident fighter like Pacheco will need to stay sharp, fight off his back foot, and think twice before firing his best shots.

McCumby can do a bit of everything—box, punch, fight on the inside, or counter. He’s not just durable—he’s dangerous.

Pacheco has the tools: a long jab, quick hands, and crisp technique. But he’s still learning how to navigate real danger. Up to this point, he hasn’t had many opponents who’ve made him earn their respect. McCumby will demand it—every inch of the way. He doesn’t just throw punches; he launches them with bad intentions.

Diego Pacheco vs Trevor McCumby Total is at 6.5 Round with the Over at -125 Odds

Diego Pacheco vs Trevor McCumby Predictions

Pacheco should survive the test—but he won’t dominate it. He’ll have to dig deep, box smart, and outwork McCumby in the late rounds to secure a wide decision. But it won’t come easy.

The 5’11½” McCumby is an underrated boxer with sharp defensive instincts and a strong jab at range. Nearly pulling off the upset against Caleb Plant has given him the confidence to believe he can hang with anyone.

The betting market expects a knockout, but McCumby is too proud, too tough, and hits too hard to go quietly. Put a couple fazools on McCumby to last the distance on the losing end of a decision for one Boxing Betting unit.
