    William Hill are pretty shocking. Never have the best odds on anything.

    Paddy and Victor are mediocre too in that respect. And Bet365 come to think of it, in fact all the most popular ones don't have to provide good odds to get the punters in.

    Best are Boyle, Sportingbet, Betfair

    Very few are good, never lay you a bet and hence always having to get new accounts. Boyles are the "best" for getting a bet on I'd say

    I'm a fan of Bet365. Maybe not the best odds but their setup and stats with the football has won me a fair bit of cash. Also never been messed about with them.

    Betfair's a good shout, always straight forward.

    Betfair are obv the best as they are an exchange. Bet to the lowest % and therefore you'll get better odds as long as you can get matched

    Placed a grand on him with PP the other day. Planning on going in a bit heavier this weekend (going to go into a shop and put cash down on him) so expect the price to fall pretty soon.

    You reckon the odds will get better or worse with Gamboa? Just seen it at 4/5 which seems pretty sweet.

    the odds are going to drop. I'd expect him to start off around 4/6. He hits very hard and is too fast for Rios, who will struggle to make 135 again. I'm very confident in this bet. I'll try to get 5k on him at 4/5 and a bit more on betfair in the lead up to the fight.

    You have absolutley zero chance of getting 5k on anywhere. Anything over a ****** would get referred in a shop as well. Anyways, good luck with your bet

    What do you all think of Dallas against Skelton?

    Too difficult to predict.

    Skelton threw his fight with Pulev and went down and stayed down when he got his by a jab. If the going gets tough here, I'd expect the same,

    But I also expect him to give it a go for 2-3 rounds first. He could overwhelm the poor Dallas so it's a hard one to predict on that basis. Dallas also looks to have **** stamina.

    Two mugs fighting each other.

    You would have to be a mug to bet on it.

    Can't see Mormeck lasting with Wlad. He is old and shot to pieces, and shouldn't be sharing a ring with Wlad at this point.

    Wlad chooses when he ends this fight. I see Wlad knocking him out with one punch in the middle rounds. under 8 is printing money IMO.

    "printing money"

    Wlad is a tentative **** in his fights and it takes Manny Stewart losing the plot in the corner to get him to start throwing right hands. He will jab jab jab for the first 4 rounds as usual and then throw the odd right hand. Mormeck could well last the distance.
