    I was starting to think Fury might have a chance, but sadly Dwyer has picked him which means he officially has zero chance now.

    What did you expect?

    The guy pockets UK money to hype UK fighters ( ahem-Degale-ahem).

    UK is the second coming of Las Vegas.

    Erm...

    He hates AJ and picked against Froch in basically every fight.

    His Degale thing is weird but it's not because Degale is british lol.

    Been around for years and often makes calamitous picks.

    Some highlights:

    Yuri Foreman over Cotto
    Margarito over Pac
    Glen Johnson over Froch

    To name a few.

    To his credit he was the only person I saw pick Ward to win the super 6 when it was announced, and he Thompson over Price the first time.

    He reads styles very well but doesn't seem to understand levels.

    True but Fury is no Lennox Lewis.

    Foreman over Cotto! Jesus H Christ.

    I think that's the danger with these hot take merchants. Every so often one will happen to be correct because boxing is boxing. I work with a lad who called Fury to beat Wlad based on nothing other than 'having a feeling'. He's got pretty much everything else wrong since but still lives off of that prediction. I ****ing hate him. Every time I see him I want to volley the water cooler at his stupid spud face

    He usually picks based on betting odds. He has had a lot of odd picks come out as wins as well as losses, including picking fury against Klitschko.

    He tends to favour a technical fighter, sometimes a little too much however the arguments he makes are usually sound of logic and well thought out. Probably helps that he's a lawyer.

    Yeah thats the thing is he plays value.

    So it's like if a guy is severley undervalued at the bookies he will often play that bet.

    Rod Salka to beat Garcia was another Dwyer prediction.

    It's not just these ridiculous takes, he is wrong just about every single time on genuine 50/50s.

    Get your mortgage on Wilder.

    He makes betting picks, which is why he's often justifying a case for a rank underdog. He doesn't try to give a full balanced picture, just a specific angle. Dwyer is not the best analyst but not the worst.

    Out of all of the fights... gave me a real hoot that one:lol:
