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


I have and that was the last time i had a Bet :witzend: i got beat by Napa..............................................................................................................................
Use to love a Bet on the Horses and Dogs did for a good few years..
Only ever time i see Betting for the English Title was John McD vs Larry.. Is there normally betting in Enlish Title fights?
The Irish sites (Boyle or Paddy Power) usually offer odds on all fights above 8 rounds in the UK. They may not be up until the week or even the day of the fight.

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.

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.

:TU:

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.
