McCullough at 6/1 with the bookies!!!! surely this has to be like finding money in the street!!!!

Martinez, fair play to him caught a over rated Dunne cold last time out but this does not make him a 1/12 shot, even against a 37yr old McCullough who has mixed with the best for years.

Thank me later.

How often does the old fella win fights though?

I've seen odds of 4/1 for Howard Eastman to beat John Duddy as well.
Eastman is now 1lb over the middleweight limit, and he's already over in Belfast training, at John Breens gym.

Little trixie on Eastman, Earl and McCullogh for me.

I see your argument David but there is no way McCullough with his CV should be priced up at 6/1 against an unknown quantity, also home support will be a factor.

I fear Wayne is in for a severe beating against this guy. Unknown he may be, but rumours that he was the real deal where buzzing before he took out Dunne.

The Spanish usually protect their fighters for a long time, but their real confidence in this guy showed by the way they stepped him up so soon.

Interesting at 6-1 as the dunne fight didnt tell us much other thna he can bang, hard. Dunne went after the first solid shot, something Wayne wont do.

Cant see Eastman beating Duddy.

What are the odds on Earl against Khan?

I fancy Eastman, but i can't see Wayne beating Martinez.
Earl to beat Khan, i may have a bet on that as well.

On the world scene one that interests me is Medgoen Singsurat to beat Jorge Arce, looking at odds of 8/1 for that. Singsurat has been stopped 4 times, but he's a southpaw, and Arce really can't fight them. For some reason he can't suss them out.

Their real confidence was shown when they lumped his purse on a first round KO!

Eastman was buzzing at Breen's gym yesterday, he has arrived 12 days early and is well up for it. Of course we hear that all the time but i am starting to sniff an upset.

11/2 best.

Anyone know what weight McCullogh/Martinez is at? As far as I know it's not for the Euoprean title, but is the weight limit sb anyway or is there a catchweight?

Intersting that's he come in so early. Did McCracken show up too? They must fancy their chances. How did Eastman comes across?

By plane I think.

Good odds, but I'd be very surprised if he wins. I prefer the Earl bet

Who is training Earl? and where?

I wouldn't see it as much of an upset myself. It's not like Duddy is a superstar in the making and he's still unproven.

I fancy Eastman in this one. People are talking about duddy like's he frigging Hagler, he's not beaten ANYONE of note and he's as easy to hit as a barn door.

Eastman can still crack, and I could well see Eastman sparking him if he's properly motivated for this one, which, given the fact he isn't doing chin ups on a palm tree in Guyanan seems likely.

Eastman is shot for me. Duddy doesnt have to be any great shakes to beat him *

* See Wayne Elcock for example 'A' and Evans Ashira for nearly man 'B'

I've not seen much of Duddy, has he ever shown a dodgy chin Am's or Pro?

I think Wayne has a shot. One thing he doesn't do is come out of a clich with his hands down and nonchalantly with his chin up in the air, like Dunne does.

Eastman won't be busy enough for Duddy. Duddy's not great but is busy and I think Eastman is just in there for a paycheck nowadays.

Best bet is Earl to beat Khan in my opinion.

Eastman's workrate is too poor and i sense Duddy's handlers know what they are doing with him.

If Wayne had been more active I'd be interested in this but I can't see it coming off.

I reckon the bookies paid Martinez off after they read this thread and got scared.

Looks like he sussed this one out

Yes i really outdid myself on that one, Singsurat lasted all of 48 seconds before being KO'd .

At 66/1 as well. Would loved to have know how much they all took home! Fair play to them.
