Quite like the odds on Foot v Davies jr

Foot can be had at 5/2 and I see this is a close to 50/50 fight

9/4 is now the best you can get today.

[jamamb]

ya might be worth a bet, when i watch the first davies-syrowatka fight, im seeing someone who could have real problems with a hard as nails phsyical guy like foot

How much did u make?

Have you ever heard of a calculator?

I dont understand these odds.

You don't need to understand American style odds because the math is already shown since I quoted the profit from the bets, not the 'return' like the decimal system.

It does help to know that U.S. facing sportsbooks normally only offer two way lines where a draw is a push or cancelled bet on MMA or boxing so my parlay stayed alive as a single bet with a corresponding reduced payout as if it was a single on the other leg that won.

So on the balance it's $300 net profit from the Catterall fight, $200 from the Relikh fight and $82.90 from the Roman leg of the parlay for a running total of $582.90 plus another $200 from my last minute doubling to my Relikh action below for a grand total of $782.90 for my boxing weekend all told.

should jason maloney really be in 8/1 dog territory vs emmanuel rodriguez? moloney was a good amateur himself and his record now is probably at least as strong as rods was prior to rod beating butler

ive seen maloney and he looks decent , im not sure rod beating up paul butler warrants the puerto rican being such a big fav. rod still isnt very proven to me and he looked good but certainly not great vs butler imo.

i do lean to rodriguez but just seems worth a small bet on moloney to me,

Tyson Fury 50/1 to win sports personality of the year...

Surely beating Wilder a 6/4 shot, along with his great comeback story puts him in with a shout, even with BBC prejudices.

[WelshJack]

Zolani Tete only 2/9 vs a 4-0 kid any reason for this?

[littlepug]

Zolani Tete only 2/9 vs a 4-0 kid any reason for this?

The 4-0 guy was an amatuer stand out and has been matched tough although his last 2 have been SD or MD victories, got to go Tete methinks

Not a cat in hells chance that a traveller wins anything on the BBC.

[Ricky]

Don't know much about Ritsons opponent but 1.8 for stoppage inside 6 seems ok considering Ritsons form.

2.05 tete to win by KO also seems nice given his opponents thin record.

1.53 Crawford to get stoppage too is reasonable odds.

I see Rodriguez winning this. Maybe quite comfortably.
But like you said the Butler win doesn’t say too much.
In horse racing terms he’s unexposed.

If I had a book on it I’d have him around 3-1/4-1. So 8-1 IMO represents value and a small flutter.

Glenn Foot (+250) vs Robbie Davies Jr. $100.00 for $250.00

[PredatorHayds]

Couple of value bets. Mcgregor 3/1 to win via KO, Hunter 4/1 to win via KO.
20/1 the double. All with Bet365.

[GlobalBox]

Skybet are

4/9 Degale

13/8 Eubank

With rumours of the fight happening in December this is very interesting. What has Degale left, I cannot see how Eubank is 13/8 in this, have to be honest Eubank against this version of Degale is favourite for me.

Me too, Degale just not busy enough

8/11 AND Evs now, offering me a decent cash out already and fight no where near, happy to stay in though, Eubank favourite elsewhere now.

[The Insider]

Martin Bakole to stop Michael Hunter is 23/20 with bet365.

Career Cruiser Hunter is up against a fast improving Bakole. Bakole has had some high quality sparring of late and is too big, strong and skilful for the smaller hunter in my book and 23/20 for the K.o is a steal over 10 rounds

[jamamb]

ive seen nothing at all to suggest bakole is too skillful for hunter, a former world class am who has looked pretty skilled when ive seen him, but he may well be too big and strong

bakole has actually looked a bit sloppy to me but i do expect him to be the stronger man in there

[TheLeprechaun]

Bakole went the distance with Sokolowski and it sounds like he struggled. He himself said he was tired. He has fought nobodies other than that. He has only had 17 amateur fights. Hunter for me beat Beterbiev at the 2012 olympics at 91kg and only lost on a countback so he has pedigree. He's got a lot more experience. I don't even think Bakole had walked into a boxing gym at that stage.

Billy Nelson has no credibility for me. He's too invested in Bakole. He's obviously going to tell us Bakole is doing this and that. They turned down Yoka and Hyrgovic fights. Sparring is sparring, it's done at a comfortable pace and guys get work in. Hunter trains at the Mayweather gym and I doubt he is lacking for sparring himself. Bakole doesn't actually live in the UK. He goes over to Congo and then comes back fat and has to lose weight and train the fat off.

I think Bakole gets made to look average like he probably did vs Sokolowski and this one goes the distance with Hunter winning. I don't mind Hunters loss to Usyk as I am pretty sure Bakole would get completely outclassed by Usyk.

[Jmashyaka]

I backed Hunter on decision before the odds dropped at 9/2, I’m not sold on Bakole if he has to go more than 6 rounds Hunter will take over maybe even stop him.

Crawford KO/TKO 1/2
Tete KO/TKO @ 21/20
Buatsi Decision @3/1

49/1 if you throw it in an accumulator.

May be 49/1 if you throw it in an accumulator but certainly not with just those bouts

I think Buatsi will be really going for it tonight. Everything I’ve seen from him this week is him talking about putting on a show and looking exciting. Plus he’ll be wanting to do better than Yarde. I can’t see anything other than a Buatsi stoppage.

[TheGoods]

Vallily was 3lbs Over so Glover could be value tonight. I’ve seen 13/8. I like Foot as another underdog he’s very game and has trained diligently for this.

Also took some 5/2 that Ritson wins between rounds 1-4.

[jamiedavies02]

Anybody think Patera (v Ritson) overpriced at 18/1? No disgrace losing to Mendy, close decision loss to Masher Dodd, loss and a win over Talil who lost a close world title fight with Abril. Ritson looked good blasting people out of there early, but how will he fare if Patera can stand up to his power and get into the 2nd half of the fight?

He just doesn't have the power to keep Ritson off though does he?

I've got Crawford, Tete, Ritson and Bakole by KO and Davies Jr and Tabiti by decision. Think it was 48/1.
