    the over actually won there, if I had more money to play with I would have possibly made a small bet on the over, but I'm only betting 5 to 20 dollars on bets I actually like, and minimum bets are at least 5 bucks so its just not worth it right now....however I like the following
    Karmazin at 3.0
    Foreman at 2.6
    Vanes M (no odds posted)

    Foreman showed power I thought he did not possess vs Santos. Cotto has been in so many wars and ran about even with Clottey and Mosley, and now he is moving up again not out of necessity, its a big weight for him IMO. Surely Cotto can win with a vicious body shot it wouldn't surprise me, but I like the value on Foreman who has a good chance here.

    I heard Karmazin didn't look good against D Miranda, but how good is Sylvester really? Another bet that I like the value on.

    Vanes M is a roach fighter and has been slowly building up his level of opposition. Seems very focused and confident in the interviews I have heard. Joe Greene is taking a huge step up here in class. Funny thing: Vanes gave Joe the nickname "mean joe" according to Vanes, and at the time Joe was very pissed off about it but now he uses it.

    Why is Aydin like a an eight to one favorite? Seems pretty wide.

    Depends on where my friend.

    Bodog had great odds on the over/under for Klitschko's fight. 6.5

    My site my friend works for (eagledp) The O/U was 9.5 Which I thought was BS.

    Payout was different. On bodog it was like -110 for both but on my friends site the over was +170 and the under was -350. I liked Vitali by late KO so the Bodog odds were much more reasonable and realistic. The over on my friends site would have made me lose money.

    Some don't know but when they say over 9.5 it means all 9 rounds plus half the next round. So in essence you bet the under you want the fight to be over by 1:29 of the tenth.

    For one the fight is where Aydin is from and Ion is moving up in weight class, Aydin has fought the better opposition.

    Ross is a live dog in that one. I've been very impressed with what I've seen of him.

    not really. He is kind of crude and Cunningham is tall and long and more skilled and has been in with bangers the likes of Adamek.

    definitely its possible Foreman met a drained worn Santos, however Roach is pretty high on Foreman beating Cotto too.

    I will be rooting for Karmazin but they don't have that bet where I make most of my bets, only on a service where I don't have much money in the account. He could lose anyways. Wolak / Moore just doesn't have value on it and I don't know that Wolak is head and shoulders above Moore but he might be. That turkish dude vs Io Dan, Alkyek whats his name? Not on the main boards where I bet. I should really put more money (or win more lol) at The Greek they have every damn fight up there every week just about. Cunningham seems like a solid play even at 18%. I'm sold on Vanes being at least a contender I think he would have less value if Ouma didn't give him a scare.

    I am shocked you bet Foreman.

    Had I been forced to bet. I would have gone with Cotto. I just decided to not put money on and enjoy the ride.
