How could you possibly make 400 quid backing each guy with a tenner?
Eastman you can make 30 quid
Earl is sixty quid
Hatton is 20 quid
Nowhere near 400...

Wake up. One wins, your stake from that plus your winnings go onto the next one and so on.

With an accumulator you don't bet on each fight individually you only win if they all come in.
When the first one wins the pot goes into the second bet and so forth so in fact u r only betting the tenner on the first fight

£10 accumulator on Hatton 5/4, Earl 11/2 and Eastman 5/2 (???) would return about £510......
£10 at 5/4 returns £22.5
£22.5 at 11/2 returns about £146
£146 at 5/2 returns about £512

£10 on Eastman at 3/1 return £40, that goes on Hatton at 7/4 which returns on £110 which moves onto Earl at 5/1 which gives you £660 altogether.
It works out at 65/1 on the treble. Awesome odds, absolutely awesome.

I think a treble on Eastman, Earl and McCulloch has more chance of coming in with Martinez's weight probs and more lucrative

So you seriously cant see any value in placing a stake on this? Even a £5 returns over £300.
Hatton has an excellent chance against Mayweather, Duddy is moving up in class against a guy who can be extremely dominant on his day, and Earl must be fancied looking at the rouble that Limond provided Khan with.
I fancy Earl and Hatton strongly, its only Eastman who i see letting this bet down.

Exactly. Crazy old Eastman is the wild card in the bunch. He 'can' do it, but will he? Does he genuinely give a shit? Often i doubt it.
So which site is doing this accumulator? I'm def up for it!! 10 quid is all i need??
And i can bet outright rather than anything specific?

Only PaddyPower seem to be taking bets on the Eastman fight

So in other words we cant actually do the 3 fight accumulartor.
Only on Earl, and if he wins, roll it onto Hatton?
And if you want to take a risky side bet on the erratic Battersea Bomber you can do?

Unless you put the 3 fight accumulator on at PaddyPower.
I've emailed my mate Stan James to see if hes gonna be putting odds up for the Eastman fight?

I put a bunch of bets on; but this was most interesting:
Hatton to win
Eastman to win
McCullough PTS
EArl to win
483 to 1
Put a tenner on.....

Go into a bokies a couple of days before the fight and ask in there. You may have to come back a day later to get the odds but you can 9/10 place any bet in the bookies.

20 quid to make 10 large well worth the punt

Is it worth holding out?
Are the Underdogs odds going to become MORE or LESS attractive as the 3 fights close?

Think Hatton is the one to worry about. I know he's being touted around as short as 5/4 at the moment. Maybe he could get to evens.
I think Eastman and Earl will defenitely stay the way they are. All the hype will be on Khan and Duddy in the next seven days, wouldnt be surprised if the underdogs odd lengthened.

i wouldnt waste £30 quid on hatton/earl/eastman all winning at 11/1

Could go either way, but I don't think they'll change much. Unless alot of other people think the Earl odds are as ridiculous as I do and start backing him, then they might get worse
