The Irish sites (Boyle or Paddy Power) usually offer odds on all fights above 8 rounds in the UK.

Martin, have you ever backed yourself in a fight or is it frowned upon?

Jon wins this sorry but just my opinion. :surprised:Jeff Thomas wrote:Donnelly is decent in most areas but far too brittle for power, think martin can look good here if he trains well and had the right attitude
Re: Martin Power V John Donnelly English title 19/11/11
What makes you think John can win it, BF? The thread so far has been leaning heavily towards Martin, so I'm interested to hear another perspective.boxingfarmer30 wrote:Jon wins this sorry but just my opinion. :surprised:Jeff Thomas wrote:Donnelly is decent in most areas but far too brittle for power, think martin can look good here if he trains well and had the right attitude

Jon was in with hall last time out and struggled,but is a strong fighter when match his right weight,don't get me wrong martin is decent but i think he's on the slide(no offence pal)and jon really has no where to go if he loses and that for me makes him th favourite.Deno1986 wrote:What makes you think John can win it, BF?

Likewise, Martin has probably been fighting above his weight for a good while - I think I remember him posting that Super Fly is probably his best suited boxing weight. You say John has nowhere to go if he loses, but Martin is probably in a similar position regarding his career. They are both going to be equally as hungry for this one. With respect, I think Martin is a class above John and in my opinion that will show on the night.
