have seen that Gulyakevich is 5/2 to beat Alex Arthur this Saturday, thats on Stan james, think i might have a few quid on this one.

Gulyakevich is a dangerous boxer who looks in good form coming in, I've not been overly impressed with Arthur the last couple of fights, and wonder if he might be looking beyond Gulyakevich before he should.

I'm up a few quid anyway as i had Bryant to beat Sykes last week .

Ive never seen "the ghoul" in action - anyone seen him box? Boxrec have him listed as 5ft 10 - that effin huge for a superfeather - arthur usw got the height and reach over most opponents.

I've noticed Man U are 5/2 to do Chelsea.

Tempting.

How do you see Raheem Vs Freitas going?

Raheem best odds 5/6 and Freitas Evens, it's a tough one to call :box:

You can get as high as 5.5 decimal (that is 9/2) on betfair on Gulyakevich. (Although with Betfair you pay 5% on winnings which effectively means odds of 5.275 or roughly 4.3/1)

This is a price well worth taking - Arthur is strangely not that hard to catch, and the Ghoul is a puncher - he has got good write ups too in Boxing News.

I've got £40 on.

Yeah that's an excellent win over Tontchev he has - anyone seen it or got a link?
Looks a dangerous one for AA - Sports Network must have a good reason for taking this fight though: Has Gul been hitting the Vodka maybe?? :D

Yeah it confused me for ages too - the laguage and help pages were poor.

But then I realised you can just place a bet almost like a normal bookies, you are just asked what odds you want, and you should not alter this, just take the odds given (if you ask for higher odds, you will have to wait for someone willing to offer you those odds - and you may not get a taker.)

Sorry have probably confused you more....
