If that happens against Zuniga it could be a bit of an issue.

Sure DeGale should win, and it remains to be seen what type of shape Zuniga is in at 3 weeks notice, but based on DeGale's last fight 11/2 seems okay as he ought to be a better fighter than that Frenchie.

Degale willingly goes on the backfoot and willingly goes to the ropes. It's not like he is getting pressurised and can't keep the guy off. He decides to do it and pose defensively with that makeshift mayweather defence.

It's really stupid but thats what he does.

I reckon he has the ability to box on the outside all night but prefers not to. Watch him vs darren sutherland at the olympics. Degale ran for his life all night and won the fight quite easily.

Anyone seen this sportindex spread betting thing
Say u wanna do corners they will put the amount of corners like 10 then you have to choose if you think its gonna go over or under then say u put a stake of £10 for every corner it goes over u win £10 but if it ends up at like 8 then you've lost £20
They gave me a free £100 this is gonna go terribly wrong or im gonna get lucky

Stupid is the right word, because the problem is regardless of whether he thinks he's Mayweather or James Toney the evidence is slightly contrary to that idea. He gets hit a fair bit, too much for a guy thats supposed to be soaking it up and countering. He doesn't get any real leverage on the ropes the way those guys do, nor is he a natural there. Better than most British fighters but nothing to suggest it should be a tactic.

You can't really run all night in the pros, and DeGale has taken a pretty macho approach recently. If he gets hit he likes to either soak it up on the ropes or get into a tough fight. He doesn't really use a long game.

All concerns going into this fight. Should win but 11/2 ain't bad, will see how other bookies price it, got a feeling might get 6's.

Well it's probably a good bet if you bet like that long term but when I think about it, I think it's not that good of a bet to be honest.

At 11/2, the bookmaker is saying that if they fight 13 times, Zuniga will win 2 of those fights and Degale will win 11.

I believe Degale would win every fight they have unless he gets injured or robbed on the cards which is unlikely, and the odds reflect that.

this sportingindex site is a joke its got Pacquiao vs Marquez fight minutes 29.5-30.5
so if i put a stake as £100 and it went the 12 rounds thats 5.5 extra so id win £550
if the fight went 10minutes id lose 19.5 which is £1950 lol they must make so much money

[|A|C|S|]

this site is sayin the £100 they gave me is withdrawable but my card isnt workin
i dont think its fake because its on oddschecker and i googled it but i hope not lucky i got no money in my account so aint too bad

city v dortmund

[Beeston Brawler]

Pick a match that's likely to be pretty one-sided, I say.

Sometimes the more even games have hardly any corners.

Yeah thats true, or is there any games where a team might not qualify if they lose so they go out all guns blazin

[Beeston Brawler]

If you've got both, you're likely to be laughing.

The Celtic game might be a decent shout actually.

I put it on the man city game

[|A|C|S|]

Can someone tell me if giving your credit card details over the phone is safe to a betting site
Because they gave me £100 n it says its withdrawable but in the offer they take the £100 back after 14 days so if i withdrew it i could use it on the Pac Marquez fight make profit then put it back on their site for when they take. But my card isnt working on the site could it be because my bank account has no money in it? Lol

[cutthroat22]

Fuck messing about with decent money, they'll scan you one way or another.

Quick thoughts in arsenal 3/1
Not all the first team but they are playing for first against a team with nothing to gain
