Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
I've had a tenner on AJ to win on PTS given the rumours about the possible bent judging of the contest.
I won't actually mind losing as much prefer Usyk as a fighter and a man.

Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
Has all gone quiet on the betting front....I'll probably throw a few quid on an accumulator tomorrow.
Actually just looking at the double for Usyk & Hrgovic to both get the stoppage in the second half of their fights pays 15/1.
That's tempting.
Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
This week's pod had some good material. Hopefully some winners out there.
Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
Not a lot of great fights this weekend, but the pod tries its best!
Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
Big PPV this weekend, plus some Friday fights, plus an appearance by a longtime Boxrec member:
Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
PPV is upon us tonight, should be a great overall card! Catch the latest podcast for some leans for tonight's betting action. What I played myself:
Canelo/G3 doesn't go the distance at +130
Conway +350
My thinking here, you can grab the under right now at +170 at 10.5 rounds, leaving you better value, but that 1.5 rounds for the fight to still get stopped. You could also grab Alvarez at +175, but then have the possible chance of a G3 turn back the hands of time stoppage. I think playing it safe and still getting + money is the way to go here. G3 looks like he has a lot of miles on those tires, with a Canelo stoppage being the most likely outcome to me. Might as well protect yourself on all possibilities, and still get the + money. It's boxing, anything can happen. With that said, I think Canelo gets the stoppage the 2nd half of the fight.
Conway at +350 has a chance, just because Ammo Williams looks to be in deep space 9. For what would be one of his tougher fights to date, if he isn't fully mentally prepared, it could be a tough night. Rolling the dice with Ammo isn't prepared mentally, Conway at +350.

Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
Seems like there's not a lot of betting action happening around here of late. Maybe the cost of living is catching up to everyone! ![[icon_e_sad.gif] :verysad:](./images/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif)

Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
Can’t see past Canelo by decision at close to evens.
Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
G3 looked old as I imagined. I didn't expect Canelo to look a little worn down to. After looking at his last few fights, he might be on the decline as well.
At least the pod had some winning picks and ideas on it, ha!

One of Boxrec's own joins Trotman on this episode.
Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
Always worth a listen for some betting insights:
I think Ramirez takes out Dogboe later in the fight. Even at even money, Ramirez KO looks worth while. You could also look at Ramirez 7-12 as a possibility for better odds.

Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
Went with:
the under 5.5 on Morrell-Falcao at -110; the under 8.5 on Davis-Ryan at -127, and did an under parlay on both bouts at +284.

Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
Thank you - I hit the three bagger on the last round of wagers and will "reinvest" for Canelo-Ryder.
I think Canelo comes out strong and went with the under 8.5 rounds for the Ryder bout at -115. If this covers I will have the necessary loot to cover a trip out to the desert for Haney-Loma.

Re: The ol' betting for the week thread
I'm actually having a small bet on Ryder.
I think it's going to be more competitive than most (all) think.
