Do you think this is correct?

I know there are one or two who like the odd flutter, are you surprised (like I am) that the odds on Pinto winning are longer than Michael Stewart.

Not any more Stu, as far as I know.

Pinto is now best-priced 7/2 with Stewart 4/1. This site isn't exhaustive though so there may be better prices elsewhere. I really regret not taking that 5s about Pinto now. Stupid boy. I would have been able to comfortably back the pair come fight time.

I'm going to ring Richard Maynard tomorrow and ask him when Pinto is due to arrive.

Stick your money on the favourites. It's the only earner.

Sorry, I am just involved in a cyber betting game on another site and the lad whoose running it (who usually follows Olympian online betting) has laid odds of 6.00 for Pinto and 4.70 for Stewart.

He's leaving it late! :o though it's only 4 hours time difference in Brazil. I wonder if his workouts will be public, you should get some video shot for britishboxing if he does.
I'm going to check those Pinto odds tomorrow, but I'd be interested to hear what date he arrives.

Not sure about Stewart, I haven't seen his record, but Mitchell is on a role at the moment...

6.00 for Pinto means 5/1 (good if I can get it) and 4.70 means 3.7/1.

I did have a brief look at the site you mention...might give it another peek.

MW - I'm not getting nervous about his arrival but if he isn't here by Wednesday, I will be! I'd be very surprised if any of his sessions are in public - perhaps the biggest strength he has in the psychological build up is his unknown quality. Unless they get in a willing victim for sparring to get bashed up and win a little mind game!

Stu - you haven't got a link to the gambling site your mate uses, have you?

I, I have just heard he uses to sites mainly 5dimes and Olympic, here is what he had to say.

Olympic: http://66.36.201.80/sports/home.asp ... then click "More Sports" from the bottom of the menu on the left and "Boxing" at the top of the new menu for a full listing of fights.

5dimes: http://www.5dimes.com/LinesLive.cfm?BT=S&CPE=9 ... They seem to have redisgned their page so that instead of scrolling down one big page, I had to click through 8 short pages, and thus that "9" at the end of the address is likely to change. They have Pinto available at +525 right now, though, so this is definitely worth your while
