Can I ask how you've staked here? Have you gone larger on Rnds 4-6?
Brave bet and can't fault it as your backing your convictions. If I was betting on Kovalev I'd have gone just for the stoppage outright as it would be a bitter pill to swallow if he was to stop Clev 7-12.

Good value considering who's officiating. This is what I'm worried about.
I'm going to do some hedges I think, to cover the late Kov stoppage. I think I did a fairly even stake on the round groups because 1-6 odds weren't available at the time at the price I wanted.

That's what I'm on. I got a tenner on that treble. I think Buckland and Cleverly will win. I don't think Enzo will although he's in with a chance. He took some decent shots from McKenzie last time and it was a terrible stoppage. Enzo is desperate to win considering it's in Cardiff and he wants to fight Cleverly. He also wants to revenge the terrible stoppage last time.
It's for the Commonwealth light heavyweight title. Which is more than enough to get Enzo ranked in the top 15 of the WBO light heavyweight rankings. He'll be hoping to win and return to Wales against Cleverly for the WBO light heavyweight title in a couple of months time.
That's the goal he's stated anyway. So he's going to be focused and in great shape I hope. It all depends on his chin and if he can keep moving and avoid shots.
So far my permutations will involve:
- McKenzie stopping enzo in 1-6 (~6/4)
- Clev to win (10/11 although I might stake small on him stopping Kovalev)
- Buckland to stop Smith (6/4)
- Geale to win (1/2 although as with clev might put small amount on stoppage going on Barkers recent history of injuries)
- Romero to decision Kiko (evs)
Prob do the 4-folds and acc. Shortest price 4-fold pays just over 13/1 and acc pays just under 35/1
Cracking value on this double with Ladbrokes, if you think Kovalev will do the job early. And I think a lot of people will think it's feasible Haye KO1 happens too, although it's more likely he has a look for a few rounds before uncorking a right hand.
Haye KO1/Kovalev KO1
441/1.
At this price I'm going to have a lot of punts at a few variations for a tenner each.
Really fancy kovalev now after hearing about clev sparring domestic level fighters. Have to sort my coupon for the weekend but it will all roll on if it wins too
+1. I am just so so confident Kovalev will do the business here, it's like I've come back in time from watching it in the future. Might regret saying that but I doubt it. I'm tempted to put even more on, but I'm comfortable with the amount I stand to lose currently and that's usually my criteria for betting.

Froch does most of his with Tony Bellew. He uses Callum Smith too.

Cleverly is not Froch.
Just an example... How do know how good Nathan is? He has not peaked yet.

This sparring doesn't fill me with confidence. McKenzie is not going beyond domestic level and we don't know how far Buglioni will go yet as he's very green. Neither of them will be able to provide anything near to the level Kovalev is going to come in with. If they're dismissing him as a banger like McKenzie then they are really in trouble
Noticed that Campillo is 3/1 to beat fonfara on points. Think ill take some of that. Didn't fonfara recently struggle with clev victim karpency before getting a dubious stoppage or did I just make that up?!?!??

Regardless I think that's a good value bet
I noticed this too. Seems decent value, Fonfara doesn't seem that good, Campillo is pretty sound, if he hasn't been ruined by the Kovalev loss he might pull it off. Haven't looked but I'm assuming the fight is in Chicago which might explain the odds.
