    and also a nice 'little' loss if you get a trigger happy referee

    :good

    You have to be careful with bets like this. Very common to get screwed over.

    Eubank has an excellent flashy style perfect for 'British' stoppages. Unless the guy is a TTG I wouldnt bother personally

    Concussive power means little here.

    It's about levels and if one fighter overwhelms the other, hurting him or not, you're likely to see a stoppage.

    Especially as they are trying make Jr's record pretty.

    Good luck though.

    Check who the ref is first but I wouldn't want to risk it

    Clear for me that Junior Witter will not win tomorrow he has looked terrible the last 1-2 years. Lynes is on form under Mark and Jimmy Tibbs and could maybe stop him.

    Kid Galahad on points is a peach!!!

    Does anyone ever bet in play, starting of with small stakes and lumping it all on dead certs with the aim to make a gradual profit?

    In-play is a very underrated resource for betting on boxing, IMO :good

    On the same note as a couple of recommendations above...this is an interesting 'long shot'

    Colin Lynes by KO/TKO 6/1
    Kid Galahad Decision 5/2

    23.5/1 with Bet365 :think

    Not sure its that much of a long shot. Junior Witter is completely past it, if he gets dominated in this fight he will probably be pulled out by the corner at some stage.

    Galahad is a pretty feeble puncher. So he may be favored to stop an overmatched opponent but its not out of the realms of possibility it goes 12.

    I think the Lynes bet is better value personally. Do you know for sure how durable/good Wale is? Could be way out of his league and a Brit stoppage on the cards. Don't get me wrong, still looks decent hence me pondering it.

    But I think 6/1 is too good to pass up in itself even for the less adventurous. I find it harder to see Junior going 12 than not if he's **** in this fight, which lets face it on the balance of probabilities is fairly likely. His balance has looked shot, so too his reflexes and timing. It'd be a pretty big turn up for the books if he suddenly had a reversal in fortunes here.

    Lynes bet looks a decent shout

    Wale marks up quite badly
