I was thinking Chelli but apparently he hasn’t had a full time trainer for this which is a bit of a red flag. I think he’s naturally bigger than Cullen and has a decent workrate so could win on points but the trainer things works against him.
I also think Mayer but think she may get shafted by the judges.
Cullens had some hard fights since they last fought. Been stopped a few times. Chelli could be that bit fresher.
Plus the motivation of having not won a British title yet against having been there and done it.
I quite like 11/4 Chelli stoppage. It’s worth a nibble.

Yeah betting on the KO or points in play can be a good one to bet on I’ve found.

I’ve won a lot on the Brentford game (bet on 3 anytime scorers and 2 of them came in and also had money on over 2.5 goals)) so I’m literally going highest variance.
17/1 on the draw for Mayer v Jonas. I’m still miles up for the day even if this loses.

7/4 Jonas going in to the last. She was never in the fight imo. The bookies must have been wary the stitch up wasn’t gonna happen…

Mayer at 11/10 looks like fair value tomorrow night.
Bullshi1t decision potentially incoming.
Jonas will have the small crowd going potty everytime she throws even if she misses by 6 inches.
In saying that if Jonas wins a legitimate decision Mayer will give it the 'I was taking them on arms and gloves' line that's so often used.

That’s a good prediction
There you go

AJ is a ridiculously generous 2/7. I make him at least 1/20

I don't understand betting really, if someone is 2/7 I know it means it's a rubbish odd, but how does it work?

Put 700 on to win 200.
I think it's a bad bet.

I'm having £25 on Zhang by ko in rounds 1, 2 a d 3. I think it's 49, 39 and 29 in odds
£75 for a handsome return.
Might cover it with Parker on points at 4.25 in odds

Parker will be on the run bigtime. Zhang has hurt everyone he's fought early. You can't stand in front of him in the first 3-4 rounds.

Fancy Joshua and Zhang stoppage double. Skybet offering evs on Joshua stoppage with 15quid max stake which is a nice price.

Disagree. Betting is about value. Zhang and Parker are having a rematch. I'm sure you like most would favour Parker to win a rematch. Would you bet on Parker if I gave you 1/100 odds? No because it would be a really bad and stupid bet to put 100 on to win a quid.

No, betting is about winning and losing. There is zero value in a losing bet, ZERO. I bet on AJ when he was 1/4, then again at 2/7 and even more at 1/3. Guess who won all of his bets last night? Me.
You still "think it's a bad bet"?

That was a good bet. It turns out that Joshua was probably more accurately priced at about 1/20. Definitely would be near that if they had a rematch.
You don't understand gambling and will end up losing your dosh mate.

So it was a bad bet last night at 2/7, but today it's a good one? Maybe it's you who doesn't understand betting.
Since September, I've had a 1,712.2% return on my original stake from betting.
