Thank me later and get on very early!

Sakio Bika is 4/6 to beat Jesse Brinkley with sportingbet.com

I'm not joking here, pawn all your possessions, take a second mortgage, sell your kids! Good things like this only come around about the same time as Haley's Comet......Wheelbarrows at the ready.

ive already put money on this, and knowing my luck (or lack of) expect bika to be stopped early

Have faith! this is nailed on, I'm already in for 1500.

Thanks Hagler. Very nice odds!

4/7 odds now. Thanks for the heads up Hagler, if this one drops for me, I will be taking the kids to Disney (Paris) this year after all.

8/13 at Betfred.

Got him at 4/6 aswell. Cheers for the tip, Hagler.

Cheers Hagler, I got 4/6 as well. Dropped £350 on it.

for us non betters what does it mean and I trust the outcome is Bika... explain for the betting tips for dummies.

for those who got 4/6,they will get back £4 profit for every £6 they bet.For instance,put £60 on,Bika wins,get £100 back.Or the guy who bet £350 will get back roughly £585

What if its a NC ? or DQ ?

Bika is terrible with the headbutts and will be rusty as hell !

I want to bet, but he worries me.

Brinkley would win under the KO/TKO/DQ bet.Not sure about NC.Probably a void bet

Never seen brinkley fight. How much of a cert is this?

Brinkley has apparently improved a lot and is looking like a bald, white Mayweather.

His win over #1 Dad in the contender was right up there with Kostya vs Zab for me.

90 times out of 100, Bika should come through this easily with the win.

However, we saw last night with Herbie Hide that anything could happen. A cut, a twisted ankle, a low blow a lucky punch, there are just too many variables in a boxing match to justify betting big on short odds.

I loved that win over Bonsante. He really pissed me off throughout The Contender.

Brinkley has improved, but Bika is better. Brinkley's not elusive enough to win, imo.

Brinkley's not too shabby. The win over Stevens would worry me enough to steer clear though, especially when you'd have to bet quite a bit to see a good return.

ive had a cheeky two fifty on Huck to stop Minto in the first and Mosley to stop Mayweather in the last.... two singles and a double will net me 780 quid. I know its a long shot but its only a small bet so who cares?

I watched that fight, and while Brinkley did well, Stevens was poor. Bika's much bigger, stronger and more skilful than Stevens. There's not too much difference between Manfredo Jr and Brinkley, and Bika walked all over him.

Lookslike Brinkley heard about your bet and decided he would probably lose. if you had money against him

Bika-Brinkley is cancelled

The IBF Super Middleweight Elimination bout between #2 contender Jesse Brinkley (35-5, 22
KOs) and #4 rated Sakio Bika (28-3-2, 19 KOs) will not take place on May 28th in Quebec. InterBox
received a letter from the IBF early Tuesday morning stating that Brinkley was not able to train
for the last few weeks due to what seems to be a bad flu, and has only been cleared recently by
his doctor to commence training.

Balls. Thanks for the info, though, RD.

Too good to be true really.

Anyone fancy Foreman to beat Cotto via decision? 10/3 in Boylesports. Definitely not free money but definitely worth a flutter imo.

I think Foreman has a good shot to pull an upset. He's a good technical boxer who happens to be a fair deal bigger and there is always the question of how much Cotto has left and how he will be perform in a new division.
