Yes.

50% of my accy from Tuesday (which included BM at 10/11

) went on the 2 English clubs to qualify at even money.

As tipped again.

That's my weekend sorted.

What are the picks for this weekend in the SBO event? I've seen some decent odds on group round bets for a mid stoppage for Khan or Barrera...

TFFP · 03-12-2009, 06:33 AM

Not much of the boxing is taking my fancy this weekend.

steveng · 03-12-2009, 07:04 AM

i have put a bit on to make it more interesting this weekend

£5.00 accumulator:
Enzo by stoppage
Macklin by stoppage
Abraham by stoppage
Pryce by stoppage
McCloskey to win outright

not too much return, but like i said, makes it more interesting

TFFP · 03-12-2009, 07:39 AM

Interestingly McCloskey is 5/6 on to STOP Harrison.

I agree with the odds, over 12 rounds I think he will stop him. I was hoping for a little more value though.

Grant1 · 03-13-2009, 04:18 AM

E-mailed my bookie yesterday looking to do an accy and he came back with the following, what d'ya reckon?

Amir Khan vs Marco Antonio Barerra 5/6 20/1 5/6

Enzo Macarinelli vs Ola Afolab 1/8 25/1 9/2

Tyson Fury vs Lee Swaby 1/16 33/1 7/1

Bradley Pryce vs Matthew Hall 4/7 33/1 5/4

Nicky Cook vs Roman Martinez 6/5 20/1 8/13

If you are going to include all of those fights you'll do well if it comes through...but really any number could go wrong.

Pryce/Hall, Khan/MAB, Cook/Martinez...good chance one of these does not go your way. I've seen Maccarinelli at better odds too, 1/6.

Anyway, if it was me I'd take a small bet on Khan/Pryce/Maccarinelli/Cook PTS and Macklin instead of Fury.

I fancy Elcock to be honest, plus I wont be betting Enzo or Fury at those odds.

Pryce, Cook and I cant decide on Khan Mab.

I really dont know if there is money to be made this w/e on the boxing.

May stick to the handicap betting for the 6 nations.

TFFP · 03-13-2009, 05:30 AM

Yep they are all 50/50 matchups, and not even the type where its obvious who will win.

Nobody has a stylistic edge in Hall/Pryce, but Pryce has better experience. Pryce is likely too slick, but at the same time he's at his worst under pressure.

Khan has no chin and we don't know what Barrera really has left.

Martinez is an unknown quantity. But I'd say the best value of the evening could be Cook on PTS. The kid can box but his power is nothing. The bookies must know something we don't with Martinez, I wouldn't put much, but I've not really bothered researching this guy yet. Maybe when I get home. From the little I saw on Barrera/Khan countdown he looked pretty wild and crude, but big and strong. Good chance Cook outboxes him for a close decision if thats typical for him.

steveng · 03-13-2009, 10:25 AM

anyone else think that Fury to win on points @6/1 is worth a punt?

i think i may have to go for it

TFFP · 03-14-2009, 07:36 AM

How long do Paddy Power take to settle bets?

I'm still waiting for my money on Bute. Irish bastards.

Beeston Brawler · 03-14-2009, 08:27 AM

My broadband has been iffy all week, was going to put some on Bute.

Hull to beat Newcastle, good value at 13/10 IMO.
