What's confusing about that?

Decent price on Salido I think...

Looking for something to go with my Selby stoppage win I picked earlier in the thread and I reckon Eric Ochieng is a cert at 8/15. Eric took Smith very close in his last fight while Evans only managed to scrape past Willy Warburton by a point in a 6 rounder.

Guys, does anyone have an opinion on Golovkin/Adana going the distance? Don't know anything about Adana but on paper he looks like a 'teak tough Ghanaian!' The problem is I see he was down vs Don George and down twice against Dyah Davis. Can he at least get to the later rounds?

Selby stoppage at Evens is a very good price IMO I have proceeded to avail myself of this offer and will now keep all things crossed.

I agree, Banker of weekend for me. Body shots to get Rendall out of there....

I think he will go past 5 but only because he will be doing nothing but trying to survive. Golovkin will catch him sooner rather than later.

What does everyone think of Gary Buckland over Gavin Rees at 2-1? I think it's an even fight. Golovkin pts at 5-1 might be worth a small bet

Guys, what is your reasoning behind backing Selby by stoppage? Just asking because I don't know anything about Lee other than he has a low KO percentage. Thoughts please.

Selby hits a lot harder than that percentage indicates, it was well known that he "allowed" a lot of his early bouts to run the distance for experience reasons and on the advice of his team but since then he has stopped some solids kids in Simpson and Smith, the type that don't go down easy, also feel he has been crying out for something to motivate him recently and has kind of let his level of performance slip. Thereby for me the Euro Crown in front of his own countryman will surely have him buzzing, he looked a lot better at the weigh in today than recent fights and whilst Munroe looked ripped I just keep remembering the Quigg body shots that took it all away from Rendall, if Quigg can do that (although better delivered perhaps not with the power of Selby) then I just feel Selby can and that Evens is a very good price.

Down side for me is the recent performances of Selby but I just feel he was going through the motions again Simion and Walsh, if I am wrong however and he has plateud then my
bank balance will be significantly weaker tomorrow and there will be less spending money for my family holiday in March.

Thanks mate.

I have gone with my usual accumulator

Selby KO
Ochieng
Golovkin 7-12
England in rugby
Ireland in rugby

And a couple of hedge accumulators including GGG 1-6 and covering France...
Also might go larger on single bets on Ochieng and Selby stoppage.

I don't see the Selby stoppage as a banker myself, his last couple of performances have been a bit flat and he often cruises, gets lazy and does just enough, Rendall is always fit and I don't think he was up for it against Quigg, he was going from a world title fight to a domestic fight, I don't think you can judge him too much from that only stoppage loss. I know this is a higher weight class and Selby is looking to impress at home but i'm gonna pass on this one.

His world title shot was over two years earlier! Quigg was a big fight on one of the biggest shows of the year.

Totally agree. I also think Rendall will fold if it comes on top too. Have had a fair bit myself in this.

I have went with the fight not to go the distance for Selby-Munroe (4/6) and doubled with Ochieng (4/7).

Looking forward to tomorrow!

Mouthwatering weekend of sport ahead with the boxing, rugby, football and Superbowl. Starting off with a speculative accumulator tomorrow:

France to win by 1-12 points
Italy to score +10.5 points
Golovkin/Adama +5.5
Bursak/ Fletcher +8.5
Ochieng outright
Rees/Buckland not to go distance

€20 returns €880

I didn't realise it was that far after to be honest, but I still believe he wasn't up for that fight, no disrespect to Quigg but there's no way it would have been that easy for him if Rendall was at his best, so if everyone is expecting the same Munroe I would be careful. I guess we don't know what Rendall has got left physically and mentally until the final bell.

Isn't it just to avoid punters thinking 18 counts when in fact it's over 18? They could just say 19 and over it seems.

Im going for -
Lee Selby v Rendall Munroe - Selby Wins in Rnds 8-12 or Pts
Adama - Golovkin Rnds 1-6
Anthony Joshua v Dorian Darch - Joshua Fight Outright
Gavin Rees v Gary Buckland - Rees Fight Outright

Ive gone for the 4 fold.

Ochieng

I think Selby - Munroe is closer than you guys think. If Rendall gets off to a good start, I think he'll win.

Not betting on it like. Too much win going on to celebrate our magnificent victory over the Gerodie Horse Punchers.

I only seen the Selby - Munroe weigh in today and Selby looks 2 weight classes bigger than Rendall. I think he wears him down late but I'm not confident enough to bet on it.

Don't feel so bitter towards Ochieng now that Rees/Buckland has gone the distance.
