I had Johnson drawing with Carl.

He was just more cautious than usual, not moving forward as much as he did even vs Froch. But I honestly think he didn't look THAT much worse than he did vs Froch. Maybe it's just me.
Johnson is going to stop Groves late and I'll be betting on it.
Here we are again. 3 from 4 as yet. Will hedge a little so I won't be losing anything but hope Khan doesn't let me down (too much). Small bets on Johnson and Blackwell have lost me a couple of quid but Rose paid for my weekends betting last night.The Insider wrote:Little accumulator with odds of just over 50/1
BJS points, Ajisafe win, Groves points and Khan rounds 7-12.
Having seen Glen Johnson on the scales I think he looks like shit but will still have a little side bet on him as a cover. Will also have a tiny bet on Blackwell as it would break my heart if he won and I didn't back him.

Bob Ajisafe being the pick of them to win imo. Bob can hit pretty hard and has mixed in the better company and if Dickinson can't keep him under control from the off he may find Bob more than a hand full. Other 2 to keep an eye on are Glen Johnson and Nick Blackwell. If I'm being truthful I don't really expect either to win but the bookies odds are so poor on the favorites I just can't bring myself to bet on them. No stoppage odds are available yet but a patent of Ajisafe and Johnson by stoppage and Blackwell winning are my fun bet for the weekend.
The only boxing bet with any value at all this weekend. If you find anything else please tell me otherwise.
Who knows what you're on, that accumulator you had the other week you had 2 different selections in different threads.The Insider wrote:Here we are again. 3 from 4 as yet.

I'm hoping for Khan late stoppage too to complete my treble, had BJS and groves points. Thought Glen was gonna stop Groves at one point when George looked tired, that would have been favourable.The Insider wrote:Here we are again. 3 from 4 as yet.

I drew off the Hatton Bill accumulator of Shenchenko, Buckland, Murray and quigg by stoppage. Also nailed Quigg stoppage too. Showed a few licence holders the slip. Had a few bets this weekend too. Some come in some didn't.Hagler2002 wrote:Who knows what you're on, that accumulator you had the other week you had 2 different selections in different threads.The Insider wrote:Here we are again. 3 from 4 as yet.

Yes, he could land a booming right hand and drop Groves but Adam Booth is a smart man and I am sure he will have drilled GG on movement and angles and avoiding the right.The Insider wrote:So this is the big question. Will Groves be able to keep Glen off for 12 rounds and pick and prod himself to a wide points victory or will Johnson be too much for him and force a stoppage. GJ is at 9/2 just to win outright at the moment so it'll be interesting to see what the stoppage odds are.
The 2 scenarios I see are Groves wide pts or Johnson being stopped on by an overcautious ref due to taking a few clean shots. Depends on the odds as to the value/versus probability.
Or the guy who loses 2k on katsidis then lumps on the next figh but then mysteriously falls to sleep..........and so on and so forth. Don't hate the player H, hate the game :)Hagler2002 wrote:You remind me of the guy who stands and chucks a fortune into the FOBT and then when asked how he got on says "I broke even"

Seems to be a thread full of people patting themselves on the back so I may as well join in....
I win, I lose. What i don't do is bump up every winner I have and post multiple selections in different threads and then delete the losing bet.The Insider wrote:Or the guy who loses 2k on katsidis then lumps on the next figh but then mysteriously falls to sleep..........and so on and so forth.

No deletions. My losing bets are there for all to see (as well as the winners). Take it you've not been doing too well of late?Hagler2002 wrote:I win, I lose.

Can't fault you. I was actually ultimately swayed by that thread to get on it. Was shit scared Audley was gonna rape me though so didnt go huge. Only 2 I really went mad on was Price to stop Sexton and fury to stop Rogan but had a few decent outsiders come in between.Hagler2002 wrote:The Insider wrote: Take it you've not been doing too well of late?
My last substantial bet was Price to KO Audley inside 6 rnds which has paid for Xmas and my daughters skiing trip. I'm very selective in my bets I await the correct bet at the right price.
The next one could be 2 months or 12 months away but when it comes I will go in large.
In between I have a few quid here and there for some interest.
That is brilliant.fcking hell a 100/1 and 50/1 in a month. Well played and thanks for sharing. Didnt get on again but no doubt the hail mary acc of yours that i do get on will have 4 losing legs, such is lifeThe Insider wrote:Little accumulator with odds of just over 50/1
