    Your probably better off doing it now IMO. Get on early. I think the odds will shorten on the KO for Martinez come fight night.

    Also, not sure where you 'heard' that Chavez isn't taking this fight seriously. Martinez is a threat. Why would Chavez not take the most important fight of his career seriously? Rest assured that both men are training hard and will not be taking this fight lightly. :good

    If your a little bit more ambitious take Sergio 7-12. Chavez will not be going down early so expect a later stoppage.

    I'm not counting Chavez out though. I think he could even get the KO if he's able to bully Sergio.

    No bet is safe in this fight. But Sergio by TKO is a decent bet considering the current odds... I'll be having a little dabble on it for interest. I'll be pulling for Sergio.

    Watch the 24/7s Chavez skips training with roach several times and you can see Freddie is fed up with him. He has a reputation for just doing what he wants. His dad spent hours watching Martinez fights then tries to tell Jnr who has only just got out of bed at 6pm and jnr basically ignores him. Could all be bull but I think roach is genuinely annoyed with chavezs lack of effort.

    Not touching Martinez/Chavez Jr with a bargepole. Is there actually an outcome in that anybody would be terribly surprised to see?

    Martinez has looked decent of late but not without fault and not the guy of a few years back. He's starting to look more and more like a guy that needs to dictate pace for long periods and if he's put under sustained pressure by a huge guy like Chavez it could be trouble.

    Chavez Jr is the marketable fighter that's already benefited from decisions in the past.

    But on the other hand, on video you'd say Martinez's best performances are a lot better than anything we've seen from Chavez and that the most likely outcome is probably a UD for him, but Chavez takes a lot of punches too so can you hang your hat on that?

    Draw is in play too!

    Not one for me, the outright odds are not that enticing either, priced well IMO. If I absolutely had to I'd make an Over play in a double.

    i bet you used spellcheck on dyslexic,
    the fight you are talking about is a nightmare to gamble on neither have a notable edge that you can use so my advice is to sit back and enjoy and wait for a better betting oppurtunity

    Them 24/7's can be misleading. Remember when Pac and Margarito were fighting. They made out Pac was doing **** all similar to Chavez and Margarito was the one who was training like a beast. We all know what happened there. But yeah Roach seems sick of Jr's ****. Jr was a right ignorant ******* towards his father aswel.

    i wouldn't read into 24/7 too much they are designed to attract more buys. Im still deciding who to bet on, sensible head says Martinez but betting head says Chavez to shock the world!!

    Chavez Points seems to be the bet im thinking right now.

    I was thinkin about 7-12 but the Paul Williams fight puttin me off,also against Macklin he threw some bombs that would probably catch Chavez, n i know Sergios lookin for the ko he has one punch knockout power but i do see Chavez hangin in there late

    Saunders v Fletcher - Anyone else think 10/3 Bet365 Saunders pts is big, I realise BJ may well stop the aussie but Fletcher is decent enough, not sure about his beard but Pryce took BJ the distance and I would have Fletcher fav over Pryce personally although of course the chin is the imponderable.
