Gambling with Stovepipe

WHAT!!?? You opened a thread on how you were really tempted to vote for Foreman??

Indecision thy name is vargasfan1985 - not a slight on you, i just think its funny

 

I am shocked cause I thought he'd go for Cotto. It had nothing to do with what I thought. I figured he'd go with the favorite. That was what I was saying.

 

I thought he'd go with the favorite. That's all I am saying. I am not making fun of him. I thought Foreman was going to give him hell. They say bet with your head. My head said Cotto but my heart said Foreman was going to make it a close fight.

 

Stove, the over under on the Rahman fight is very nice. It's 5.5 and both are nearly even. I think this fight had early KO for Rahman written all over it. Even Rahman by KO, TKO, DQ is 4/1. Rahman ain't letting this go 10. If the odds were on Bodog I'd be going large.

 

It's driving me nuts. 4/5 odds on under 5.5? Rahman is gonna crush this dude. Even if it goes over, Rahman by KO 1/4 over a guy like Miller? Rahman KO's this dude easy and most likely early.

Also I know it's far off but Adamek/Grant, 8/1 fav for Adamek. I think Grant has zero chance.

 

Considering how average Chavez is it might not be a bad bet. I am gonna stay well away from picking a winner but might take a look at the over under - if both these guys come in shape i reckon it will go the distance.

 

He didn't go down, he got his bell rung hard they said.

I did some investigating. Rahman has, in his career, knocked out club fighter status guys almost each time out. I think I counted like 11 of his last 12 fights with guys who have club fighter status, all got KO'd. Sykes was the only one to go the distance.

In other words, if his next fight is against a chinny club fighter, I am going heavy on his next fight. I would have been able to lay at least 4 G's on his fight with Miller. I will fly to Vegas if I have to! Rahman, 4 to 1 by KO for the Miller fight! That was free money. A guy on Boxrec went heavy on the under. He made a good chunk of change.

 

I think Vegas has this one right. Chavez by UD. Duddy is not good. Period.
