365 have flipped their line but haven't void my bet yet...

To their credit, they didn't void me when they briefly had Richar Abril and Derry Mathews both at 5/6 and I hammered Abril. Was gutted when he pulled out of the fight!

Update: they messaged me to say the bet would now stand at 5/6 unless I want to cancel it. Of course I want to cancel it! Oh well, worth a try.

I once won £500 on a fight that had already happened but was being televised later...Rogan-Harrison I think

Nothing from Victor yet.

haven't done a whole lot of betting this year mate, i would advise you have more respect for the likes of insider, globalbox, boxing prospect, bruthead et al than me. disclaimer :)

I'll listen to anyone's opinion mate, but it's mine that's the most important, because it's my dosh. I tend to think that talking about a fight makes me think about it more and stops me rush into anything

[Tarkus]

Rose by decision x3.10, hedged with Jones to win x2.50.

Whyte to win between rounds 2 to 5 or 1 to 4.

[Tarkus]

Campbell by points is 3/1 could be a good value bet. Coyle will probably try to survive after the first few rounds and Luke is not a puncher to put him away.

[bruthead]

I should say first here that I know very little about MMA but some UFC tipsters are big on Vitor 'Lex Luthor' Miranda at 11/8 over Clint Hester. Hester is coming off a disappointing defeat and was pictured looking somewhat out of shape four weeks ago. He then missed weight by a pound yesterday and had to re-weigh. Although he still looked fantastic compared to me, he was noticeably less toned than usual and his body language wasn't great. Plus he is fighting a Brazilian in Brazil.

Now, Hester would be expected to win in normal circumstances. But the weigh-in hasn't moved the betting line at all so you are still getting the same odds. They imply Miranda has a 42% chance and people probably see it being more like 60-65% if Hester's head hasn't been right.

Also, the feeling is that it's safe to add Ronda Rousey into accumulators at 1/12 and she should be more like Kovalev-Mohammedi's 1/33.

Dillian Whyte inside 4.5 rounds is attractive at 6/4. Will have a small play on that.

Me too 20 sheets on it. I've given myself £100 to play with tonight, but instead of putting it on one fight, I'll spread it out. I've seen Costa a few times. Barely throws a punch, hands always held high, if Whyte is busy and goes to the body it should be an early night.

Ricky Burns to stop the Ghanaian lad at 10/11

Thats very high. Are you sure its not 4/6?

Ricky Burns to stop the Ghanaian lad at 10/11

He's only been stopped once and that was by a puncher and RIcky is not a hard puncher. I can see it going the distance, but there's always the chance of a stoppage when fighting brit in Britain.

phuk knows how I typed that. Its 5/6 with bet Victor. just had ward in play at 8/13 on points too.

If I wasn't on Tramadol, I might have noticed that bet. Easy money.

Yeah that more like it.
I took similar odds, but I went for rounds 2 to 5 rather then 1 to 4. Costa is a big unit who can crack, so I expect Dillian to start cautiously. Actually I am not sure Dillian can hurt him at all. But Costa wont last beyond 5 for the luck of stamina alone.

[keithmoonhangover]

4-1 for Mayorga to beat Mosley and I think he's gonna win it. Hmmm.

[keithmoonhangover]

Happy days. What's next?

That's a wounder mate.

Dillian has improved. Whereas Costa is finnished.

I've put the £16 I won on Whyte onto Burns on points. Might even have a cheeky bit of in-play now I know I can.

[The Insider]

Burns k.o in play at 8/13

[bruthead]

Painful for points bettors there.

[Tarkus]

Well, the corner man had his own little bet on round 5.

I thought exactly the same.
