I'm surprised my man is the favourite here.

Slug, that's actually one of the very worst things you can do to yourself. :yep

In case you lose the bet, you're left with $1 (instead of $0, if you'd be it all). People who are left with $0 automatically get a replenishment bank of $75 the next time a new vbookie thread is created. People who are left with $1...don't. So you would have to place a $1 bet on the next event (and maybe win back a few bucks...making for a very slow rebuilding process). If you lose, then you can wait until the next time to have your new $0 balance restored to $75.

Oddschecker.com, mostly.

It's an accumulator site that shows odds from several real online bookies (usually with the best odds in bold).

Acosta is the defending champ, more experienced, and eats undefeated prospects for breakfast.

The oddsmakers aren't always swayed by hype.

That said, Rios is an offensive wrecking ball. I can see why fans would expect him to be the favorite. He just happens not to be. :conf

Same here. :thumbsup


Rios has been over 9 rounds twice, with 6 of his 26 fights (23%) going the distance. His fights average 4.5 rounds.

Acosta has been over 9 rounds 7 times, with 8 of his 33 fights (24%) going the distance. His fights average 4.75 rounds.

Average their stats together and its a 65% chance of a KO in under 5 rounds with a 24% chance they go the full 12 rounds.

Yeah, but if you want my advice you should unload that $1 while you can just in case.

If Rios lets you down that lousy little dollar is going to be an albatross around your neck for a while. :yep
