If the fight gets cancelled and you have money on it on an online account, you do get it back don't you?

i know the froch fight is on but it seems like there are lots of easy ways for an online account to screw you over.

re jerry elliott, who says there isn't an upset tonight? Eastman looked like shit when he boxed 45 years ago against that russian. elliot has been active, is a mauling, awkward fighter and isn't afraid of anyone.

You defintely should. I recently bet online on a fighter to win, and when it ended in a draw, I got my cash back - which was pretty amazing.

Elliott is not the worst opponent at 24 hours notice but Eastman will use him as target practise, he only made the Magee fight interesting because Magee struggles to take a punch. Elliott was schooled over 12 by former Middleweight "contender" Evans Ashira, Ashira has since been blown off the scene by New Zealand banger Maselino Masoe. Eastman UD 8 Elliott.

By the way what time are the Beeb showing this bill, if they are at all?

Elliot was stopped in 9 rounds by Ashira after being down 4 or 5 times.

Henassy always seems to get good fighters in at the last minuett but it is a great shame for Eastman and all the fans who baught tickets. Not much could have been done about this though.

Never underestimate the awesome recuperative powers of the Austro-Nigerian Nightmare and his bottle of magic Edelweiss elixir, my friend.

Elliott never gets blown away and took everything Magee could throw at him last time out. Not sure about weights but he MAY have a slight advantage going in. Howard slow to get going last time out. Only and 8 rounder. One winner if it is anywhere near close:

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you..... EASTMAN ON POINTS AT EVENS (Bluesq).

that sounds like a damn good bet. a rusty, shit looking eastman creaks out a questionable decision over a tough foe, just like last time.

How would you rank Eastman as far as being a waste of talent goes? Hattonesque, Calzage-esque, or somewhere in between?

I'd say he is slightly further on than them two
