British Forum BETTING thread

True.

 

won a decent amount last night, like I said before. I've bet on green bay packers to beat what ever handicap sky have put on them, i've bet for the last 7 games now and I've only lost once by a last second score. Green bay are worth watching out for. I'll be doing the bet again next week. It's got me some really good money.

 

Thinking bout a treble this weekend

Cleverly TKO/DQ/KO
Degale Tko/dq/ko
Hopkins outright

Comes to about 13/2. Thinking of shoving Katsidis by TKO/DQ/KO to boost it as well

 

Does everyone think Burns has not got a chance? I thought Kats was struggling with 135?

 

Armenia to beat Ireland at 9/2 or possibly the draw at 11/4.

If I wasnt Irish I would be betting on one of these.

 

Ive won so much money on Hopkins over ther years. Ive bet on him winning on points against Tarver, Wright , Pavlik , Pascal. It Defies belief hes the underdog against Dawson. Ive dropped 4 Ton on a decision win

 

I'm going with Hopkins to win only.

Got a slight feeling he'll stop Dawson.

 

really? That seems like a lot to be putting on a 'method of victory' bet.

I have 110 rolling over from an accumulator just on Hopkins to win at even money..

 

400 quid on decision isn't worth the risk, I'd have gone outright for a little less. I think hopkins will go looking for the stoppage in this fight.

 

I don't think it is, if he thinks he is going to win I think that is the only outcome unless something like a cut or a DQ brings an end to the fight, of the top of my head I think the last time Hopkins stopped someone was Dela Hoya when was that 7 years ago?

 

I think when you can get 5/4 for a win, or 6/4 for the decision it doesn't seem worth it for the little bit extra, especially laying down as much as £400.

The most I've laid down on boxing this year was £200 for Brook by decision against N'Dou, which seemed like a banker at 6/5. If it had been 1/3, which it ought to have been, I might have left it alone altogether.

 

Sorry did not know the odds, if that is the case without a doubt not worth it at all.

 

**** happens though, malignaggi even managed to stop someone fairly recently, if he can pull out a stoppage i'm sure hopkins can. The difference in odds between the stoppage and the decision just wasn't worth the extra gamble, even though it's a likely outcome.

 

Are any prices for Murray vs Rios out yet?

 

I'm waiting impatiently on that one! Hopefully they'll be SLIGHTLY generous as he's a Brit so I can lump on a Bam Bam stoppage :deal
