Just put £50 on a an accumulator - Klitschko, Frenkel, Abraham, Bute, Alvarez, Rigondeax, Klitscho.

I'll be shocked if they don't all win. It's a money doubler.

There's always one that lets you down! I got £100 on Rigondeaux at 1/2 when the fight was first announced, down to 2/9 now, it's just like buying money innit?!

[SteveDow]

Just done a quadruple: Man United to beat Wolves, Chelsea to beat Liverpool, Ireland to beat Italy and France to beat Scotland. Odds of 7/4 with Ladbrokes.

I went with Jason Booth to KO/TKO Jamie Arthur @ 2/1. Bookies are siding with the fight going the distance but I think Booth is a class above Arthur and his pressure style could wear Arthur down who has been stopped twice in 4 defeats.

Those are terrible odds for 4 wins, the bookies are terrible. I do four draws in an accer for a £10. If it comes it pays out 120/1. But i have yet to get over the first hurdle haha. My first one went down in stoppage time!

Steve, you should have quit after your 6 nations bet!

My mate backed 4 draws at 120/1 with a tenner a couple of weeks ago, when all 4 Sunday games finished in a draw (sunderland-Newcastle, Spurs-Man U etc.)

[SteveDow]

Just had a treble: Phil Taylor to beat Adrian Lewis in tonights darts, Man United to beat Man City on Saturday and Scotland to beat Wales in the rugby on Saturday. Combined odds of 5.24 with William Hill.

[Hagler2002]

Taylor is finnish!

I have a question about this gambling lark.

I've put an accumulator on for 8-9 fights or so, (the wife lets us watch boxing if there's money on it), all pretty heavy favourites, in including the Frenkel Vs Azzouzi fight. I think that fight has been cancelled, so what happens to the bet?

I think it will still be on but with that fight a "non runner".7-8 fight accumulator instead.

[Deno1986]

1.5 goals (so basically 2 goals) or more in the first half of the Man U - Crawley game is EVS with Boyle. Just stuck a nice bit of cash on that.

[Hagler2002]

Dont know if his has been posted 7 pages is a lot to go through, but Fernando Montiel beating Nonito Donaire at 15/8 has to be a Great price? Aint seen Nonito Donaire fight tho...

Was just looking and you can get 5/2 on Montiel, it's worth a small punt at that price.

[Kilsby]

I'd prefer the Donaire on Pts at 11/4.

OR

make it a treble with the above^^^ Larry TKO & Mike Jones Pts for at cool 11/1 at bet365

[Datsue]

RE: Montiel vs Donaire: Kiss of death I know but I can't see it going the distance. 5/2 for the Mexican is what I've gone for, though it's more heart than head I have to admit.

But anyway, one of them is going to end up on their backs. Montiel I think really regrets not going after Jhonny Gonzalez (a similar size & style fighter to Donaire) all those years ago, it really bugs him, & I think if he starts getting in a similar position where he's being outboxed & can't get past the bigger guy's jab he's willing to go shit or bust all over the Filipino.

Should be fun...

[Hagler2002]

I just think 5/2 on a world class fighter is worth a small play.....the price is wrong in what is probably is a 60/40 fight.

Betclic are doing an offer at the minute on a no lose bet (upto) £25 for opening an account. If it loses it goes back into your bank account rather than a free bet

[ApolloCreed]

Bump

[Hagler2002]

Andre Berto by KO/TKO @ 5/4 against Victor Ortiz has certainly tickled my cock.

[ArtOfWar]

Is anyone gonna put a bet on Mosley to beat Pacquiao? There are some good oods on that result, but I need convincing.

Mosley's big & powerful, and Pacquiao's not invincible (Cotto and Margarito hurt Pacquiao, but obviously not enough). I probably recognise more of a chance for Mosley than most people. However, I do think Pacquiao should win.

I disagree, dude. I don't think Manny's been hurt since Marquez II. Cotto and Margo hit Manny with great uppercuts but he took them, fired back, and never looked bothered. Using the word hurt is wrong, IMO; buzzed is probably a better term to use.

You're disagreeing with Manny Pacquiao himself there. Manny said after each fight that Cotto and Margarito hurt him.

He also said Hatton hurt him in the 2nd. Manny is a humble guy; not got a bad word to say about anyone.

Yeah, Hatton did hurt him.

Really? Then Pacquiao's as vunerable as Khan when he's on the lash. Pac says something good about ALL of his opponents. He even said Diaz was the srongest fighter he had faced even though that was horrendously one-sided. Pacquiao wasn't hurt against Hatton, Cotto and Margo.

You ever been hurt in the ring? There's a difference between being hurt and buzzed.

[Dioufy]

The word "hurt" in stupidly overused in fights. Khan was HURT against Maidana, ffs. It's not the same as Hatton landing with a half-cuffing right-hand when Pac's backed up on the ropes.
