Well my daft acca isn't looking too daft now thanks to Fury. When Eubank wins it'll finish a nice bet that I backed Fury, Alvarez, Abraham and CEJ in so I'll have a nice little return before Christmas. Also got one that I can possibly retire on if Dillian Whyte wins on the 12th. Could be a very Merry Christmas.

For once, I didn't actually put the bet on. Mrs Hangover reminded me that I've been telling everyone for years that Fury was going to be a world champion.

I'm glad you didn't lump on :TU: we may have to make a new 'bankrupt betters thread' before long.

I just wish the rematch was done. Fury will stop him next time in another stinker.

Then why put that post up? You're essentially lying and misleading other bettors who will follow your tip. (I didn't, input £10 on Fury Ko at special price of 10-1.) Realy poor form, I hope not too many follows your so-called tip. :shame:

Well it's certainly implied, especially when you quote an actual figure! After you decided not too you should have edited the post to say you had decided against it.

Two things.....

1. Betting on a 1/5 favourite is not a tip.
2. Everyone knows I'm not to be trusted since 'Povetkingate'.

Betway have Tyson Fury as the marginal outsider at 11/10 against V Klitschko in a possible rematch. Any takers? Obv a draw back is tying up the stake until the listed date of the 5th August (fight by then for bet to stand).

Good to see live boxing on C5 this Saturday with Mick H putting Lenny Daws' challenge for the vacant EBU belt on at Daws' home town venue. Anyone got any opinion on 16w 1loss Ruben Nieto? He hasn't shown much evidence of multiple passport stamps and not sure if there are many Spanish boxing fans on here?! The Spaniard's defeat came by a narrow decision against Michele Di Rocco (who has now vacated belt), and who had previously beaten Daws by a similarly tight margin. If weighting is given to home town advantage Nieto's narrow loss to Rocco was in Spain, whilst Daw's one was in Rocco's home Italy.

Don't know anything about Nieto (hence this post), but am probably going to have a small bet for a Saturday night interest. Am leaning towards rolling the dice on Daws at 1/3 with Bet365, a firm that refund bets if a draw.

If Nieto is anything like bang average he will beat Daws who has looked terrible of late.

Daws by ko has been backed from 4s to 11/4 with Bet365 and its as low as 13/8 elsewhere. Daws engine should be too much for Nieto in my view, having watched both men fight Di Rocco, I can see only one winner and would favour Daws to stop the visitor late.

With you on that took the 11/4 raging I missed the 4/1 but with the home crowd behind him I think he can force a late stoppage

Gary Lockett mentioned in this months BM that Enzo's KO win over Ovill was underappreciated and he's probably right

How can anyone not love Big Macc?

Interesting to see the prices on Lenny Daws have been on the drift, from best priced 1/3 to 2/5 with bookies and it's being traded at 4/9 on Betfair.
Quite looking forward to this one now, a nice little - under the radar- fight on C5. Could be worse things to watch on a Saturday night. I hope Hennessy manages to flog a good few tickets for this one (think they have) as Mick's last TV show looked pretty unattended, and Mick Hennessy seems a good fella.

Daws is now out to 1/2 on Betfair from pre best price of 1/3 earlier in the week, quite a drift.

If Stan James are still letting you on, their 3/1 about Nieto is a late line price, and indeed an arb also as you can then back Daws at 1/2 and the draw at 35/1 on Betfair (if not more) and guarantee yourself a profit whatever happens.

Not sure about the stoppage necessarily but I like Enzo in a big way. Got him at the 15/8 opener but for me he is the clear favourite here so I might double down on him. Wasn't sure the fight was happening, now looks like it is.

Roy is 46 and although Enzo is shop-worn at 35, he has been fighting at the higher level and his recent win over Ovill is a big plus. Roy doesn't have a decent win in 6 years and while Enzo is chinny, I'm not sure Roy has enough power left to take advantage, especially at cruiser. You would have to think Enzo has the better gas tank given their ages so I can see an Enzo stoppage, especially down the stretch. Will wait for the odds because I might just play Enzo straight.
