British Forum BETTING thread

I think the public might make fury a favourite just by betting on the name they recognise

 

Neither will be a big favourite. Nor should they be. Good fight, hope it happens soon

 

Its not about what the public recognise, its the bookies who set the odds and i will guarantee Price starts as favourite.

You never see a poor bookie, remember that

 

The casinos have gotten it horribly wrong before, i reckon they would this time and make fury a favorite

 

Price will be clear fave 100%

 

Price favourite, if they didnt then the 'price' on him would be chopped in straight away with big bets.
The general consensus is that Fury is a ko waiting to happen and that Price has extremely heavy hands.

I think the odds would be similar to the Wlad/Haye fight.

11/8 the stoppage, around 1/2 straight up win.

Id make Price/Chisora a 50/50 fight tho.

 

ladbrokes priced up for a week and price was 4/6, think thats fair against a useless opponent i dont think ill ever understand how he beat chisora

 

I've got a feeling Fury will be favourite with the bookies, but Price obviously favourite for the fans. Should be easy money to be made on this fight

 

Price 4/6 Fury 11/10

 

No.

The bookies often move their odds when there's heavy betting. Limits their losses on the chances of an upset. That's why England are always sh!t odds at international tournaments - because the vasy majority of dunces pile their cash on england in some misguided act of patriotism. On the off chance England got a final, the bookies would be paying out millions if they had England realistically priced at something like 12/1.

But I digress. There'd be close betting on this I would think. Price a marginal favourite unless there's hefty money going the other way.

 

I was hoping for something similar with Haye-Wlad but I never happened. I'm not sure it would for Price-Fury either.

 

Ditto

Could be closer than we all think tho logic points to a Price stoppage.

 

Ladbrokes went 4/6 price 11/10 fury

 

Yeah, the ****** betting never really kicked in for Haye/Wlad the way it did for Hatton vs Floyd.

I was in the bookies messing about on the roulette machine one day and some lad put a 1-er on Hatton in the 3rd. ''Hit him with one body punch and it'll be over. The little puff won't fancy it'' he said.

Another put £20 on Floyd by stoppage and got quite good odds, can't remember what they were. The bookie said ''your the first person to bet on Mayweather by stoppage all day''.
