    I've betted on a Martin KO, purely as the odds are just too good. Think Selby will win on points in a dull technical affair, Hunter is a decent boxer, nice jab good handspeed but a little gun shy at times (watch his fight with Rene Alvarado), he started slow. Rose to outhustle Macklin on points, Groves to win by KO, after a struggle in the first few rounds.

    Pulev via (T)KO.
    Barroso via (T)KO.
    Canelo via points.

    Stake: £5.
    Potential Return: £204.84

    Canelo via (T)KO only returns £47, so thought I'd chance my arm.

    Chisora overl Pulev. Great matchup for Chisora, Pulev is getting way overrated. How do I do Vcash bets? I looked under vbetting and fantasy betting, and didn't see any options to bet?

    Well, I'm not British, but since this appears to be the only real betting thread on the forum I hope I can participate here as I wager quite a bit on boxing and other combat sports. 1 unit= $100 and I quote profit not return. My action this weekend so far:

    Saul Alvarez over Amir Khan at -385 (1.26) risking 3.42 units to win 0.85 units.
    Saul Alvarez wins by KO/TKO/DQ or UD at -249 (1.40) risking 2.49 units to win 1.0 unit.

    Great odds on Chisora mate, you currently have 500 vCash so enter your desired amount on any of the options.

    Not had a bet yet but I like the look of:

    Barroso KO 6/4
    Pulev points 13/10
    Canelo Khan under 9.5 rounds 4/6

    Thanks man, just put most of my vcash down on it. Will probably only bet on underdogs who I think are massively undervalued like in this fight, so I'll either boom or bust.

    No problem dude, Khan is priced nicely against Canelo as well:

    Not sure what I'll put my vCash on yet, the under looks good in the Canelo/Khan fight.

    I completely disagree that Khan is priced nicely. I expected Canelo to be closer to 1/10. Better than 1/5 is a gift. I just don't see how Khan wins. Sure he has the advantage in speed, but he doesn't have the defence and counter punching skill to go with it to pull a Mayweather or even Lara. Canelo in fact has the edge in technique and skill. He'll figure out how to time Khan's speed within a couple rounds. Then we'll see his huge power and chin advantage. I wouldn't be shocked if Khan survives, so I'm not playing around with method victory or over/under. Just Canelo to win.

    It's Herrera at better than 2/1 who I think is worth a stab. We know Herrera's a cutie who can outbox all but the elite, and the odds are just too good to not bet against Gomez in his big step up.

    Canelo to win 6 units as I think the bookies are way to kind to Khan. And 2 units on Herrera. My units are much less than Jim's however :lol:

    Haye vs Gjergjaj

    paddy power currently 8/15 for under 2.5 knockdowns

    very tempted to go big on this, looks like easy money, what does everyone think?

    Could well be stop from 1st or 2nd knockdown. I personally went for under 3.5 rounds @ 4/5

    Barosso didn't lose me much but I'll be going more agressive for makabu KO.
