They'll fall apart without Coloccini, you think James Perch will cope with any combination of Suarez, Bellamy and Carroll?
On another note, I had a double on Rigondeaux to win last month, and Floyd to beat Pacquiao. How long will I have to wait till the 2nd part of my bet is voided and I can get my hands on my money? Coz that fight ain't happening any time soon!
Perch has been outstanding in the second half of the season. He played centre back for Forest a lot so he is not new to he position. Williamson will pick up Andy The Donkey (if he plays) and I think Perch will do aswell as any other centre back has done against Suarez this season. Kenny doesn't Bellamy upfront.
That point aside, Newcastle have been playing some of the best football in the league recently and with Cisse and Ba up front, they have plenty of goals in them. Liverpool are in woeful form. Skrtel aside, they have been shocking at the back. 21/10 is a great value bet in my opinion.
Few boxing odds that stood out for me over the next few months:
Dimitenko to beat Pulev @ 5/2. Dimitrenko is no great shakes but neither is Pulev. Dimitrenko is the champion and has a lot more experience. The bookies are reading too much into both of the fighters performances against Sprott, IMO. A snoozefest and tight decision is pretty much guaranteed but if Dimi can establish his jab early on, I'd favour him.
Harrison to beat Adams @ 8/15. Surely not even Audley can screw this one up. Adams will be hungry but I'd be expecting Harrison to stop him.
Lee to stop JCCJ @ 15/2. The only way Lee wins this fight in Texas is by stoppage. He has the one punch power and it will be interesting to see how Junior takes it if Andy lands flush. Head says Chavez decision, but this bet is worth a bit of loose change.
Wow, please don't bet on Audley. I'm going with Adams. I honestly think that Audley is deluding himself to the extent where he might just come in so unmotivated and lethargic that he gets outworked. Even given how limited he is, Adams' motivation I think will be enough for Audley.
Felix Sturm to decision Seb Zbik @ EVS. Sturm has been lucky on his last two outings and is clearly on the slide, but Zbik doesn't possess the work rate or power to beat Sturm. Macklin and Murray worked their socks off for 12 rounds and still couldn't get a decision. This is a Sturm promotion in his home city and can only go one way IMO.
Fury to get knocked down and win is 9/1 at Skybet. I doubt it will happen as he seems better prepared for this one, but he has been hurt in his last few.
Price to beat sexton by stoppage is 4/9 @ totesport and Betfred. I'd get on this now as I reckon these odds will come in significantly approaching the fight.

This is a pro bet, a hail-mary, fill your boots, mortgage bet. I don't have the balls and will, as usual, watch meekly as the odds get shorter and shorter.
