You were unlucky that fight was close and I think Higgins deserved it, all of his shots were more spiteful and was working well when he got Richards on the ropes.JimGunn wrote:I know they have the one referee scoring in four rounders in England, but in a ten round fight too?

I had a dabble on Higgins in play. Also on the draw at 16/1JimGunn wrote:I know they have the one referee scoring in four rounders in England, but in a ten round fight too? Pretty lame. Even Eddie Hearn disagreed with that one, lol. Threw away my fight goes distance winnings there.
Close but no cigar

Great shoutJmashyaka wrote:Domestic dust up between Alan Higgins vs Craig Richards. Higgins is a 1/5 which seems abit steep since both men have fought guys with losing records. I guess Higgins has fought opposition with less of a losing record, but studying the little footage I could find on these two fighters, Richards seems to be the better boxer, he commits to a jab and utilises better footwork stepping back and countering etc.
However as there is no recent footage of Higgins I'll have to assume his favourite for reason, the bookies think he will knock Richards out, I think Thisbe might go to points as neither man has real pop.
5/4 for the fight to go the distance, if you wanna be risky then Richards on points is 11/2 and 9/4.
Re: Betting thread
I didn't originally bet on the Richards vs Higgins fight. I looked at the odds about 20 minutes before the fight. The odds changed drastically. Richards was like 7/2 a few days ago when I last looked at the odds and all of a sudden he was 5/6.
So I thought something was up and placed a double on Richards @ 5/6 and Andy Lee KO @8/13. £50 double almost pays £150.
I've also gone for Wach to beat Teper @ 7/4 and Mansour to beat Kauffman @ eves.

Re: Betting thread
Well, I stand corrected...sort of. Grayton really is bad. He should have lost a point for the constant hits to the back of the head. I'm happy with the draw...because it bails me out! Grayton looked to be coming on, although I think the rabbit punching was aiding his cause there. I thought a draw was fair. Cintron doesn't have much left, less than I thought. He REALLY needs to get matched carefully then cash out.armageto wrote:I looked up some Youtube video on David Grayton.....he is pretty horrible. Granted Cintron is past it, but I think Kermy knows he can get one more payday. His power should still be there and I can't see him losing to this chinless bastard.
Wichita State and R.I. look worth a play in the NCAA. So I'll make a play on each and on Cintron, who is at -170. Grayton just looks terrible. Cintron would have to be completely shot to shyt to lose to this guy.
Re: Betting thread
I really thought Grayton was going to win the technical decision and my bet at +326 considering he knocked down Cintron in the fifth for a 10-8 round before the inadvertent head butt that forced it to go to the cards and a lame technical decision that resulted in a majority draw.I should get my money back on that one at least- that's usually the case with most books when boxing ML bets go to a draw and push. At least Mansour just won my biggest bet of the evening at -115, earning a majority decision over Kauffman in Pennsylvania which is Kauffman's back yard.
Re: Betting thread
I thought Cintron won the 1st and 4th, Grayton the 2nd and 5th. The 3rd, I think it was, was close if I remember. I thought the draw was fair honestly, garbage fight. I'm looking forward to Grayton getting brutally KO'd soon.JimGunn wrote:I really thought Grayton was going to win the technical decision and my bet at +326 considering he knocked down Cintron in the fifth for a 10-8 round before the inadvertent head butt that forced it to go to the cards and a lame technical decision that resulted in a majority draw.I should get my money back on that one at least- that's usually the case with most books when boxing ML bets go to a draw and push.

Good job with Mansour, I favored him, but didn't pull the trigger. Was surprised they gave him an honest decision.

Is Teper v Wach on TV ?
Re: Betting thread
Ceylan vs Lowe, it's a real 50-50 not sure who will win I do not see the ko so the fight to go the distance makes the most sense.

Lowe is very live but I think it will go to the scorecards so you will have to think Ceylan is likely to get the home decision.TheLeprechaun wrote:Jmashyaka wrote:Ceylan vs Lowe, it's a real 50-50 not sure who will win I do not see the ko so the fight to go the distance makes the most sense.

He's not live for me. Ceylan should be around 1/5
Re: Betting thread
Marius Wach defeats Erkan Teper, an excellent price. Without the juice, Teper is utter garbage.

FFs this draw sh*t is annoying, second fight for me where a headbutt ruins my chances.

Re: Betting thread
Cheers lads, I won decent money on Gonzalez's opponent (can't spell his name without searching)....so it's evened out, thought Jacobs deserved the nod if anyone, I woulda won some more had he.

Re: Betting thread
What a night of boxing! Won almost a thousand bucks alone on the Thai challenger known professionally as Rungvisai upsetting undefeated four weight division champion and pound-for-pound number one boxer Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez. In the main event I thought for sure Daniel Jacobs was going to get the decision in the GGG bout. I thought he outboxed Golovkin soundly, despite the early knockdown that didn't seem to really hurt him, and won at least seven rounds if not eight. Judges cost me another $1800 or so with the Jacobs ML and Jacobs by 12 round decision bets I had at sick odds. It was a close and competitive fight, but I kind of agree with Jacobs in the post-fight interview that GGG got the benefit of the doubt to protect the GGG/Canelo payday. Still, another big weekend as the year of the underdog rolls on!

Re: Betting thread
Backed Wangek at 10s, thought it was very close but had Chocolito by 1 so although I feel sorry for him, the £200 profit only made me feel so for a short while tbh.
Re: Betting thread
I didn't know much about Wangek, just aside his record. The fight played out as I would have imagined, aside a stoppage. Both guys took a lot of punishment and Wangek's size kept him in the fight. He's way better than I thought he would have been, record based. With that said, I had a hard time giving him the nod. I thought Roman won the fight, it was close, but I think aside the first couple of rounds, Roman put in the better work overall.
Main event was close as well. I had it 14-113 G3 and could see the score ranging from 114-113 Jacobs to 115-112 G3. Anybody who thinks there was a clear winner on either side, I can't agree with that. Pretty much every forum poll I checked and out of 4 major boxing websites had this one right down the middle.
I see a few people won on Wangek, congrats to them. Glad somebody won....
