    looking at belges record, i know this sounds crazy but hatton is a class above and should stop him, i am now officially leaning towards hatton by knockout.

    Its not that funny...

    How do you know who hits harder?? They've both been mainly fighting at different weights against difference opposition, none of whom were you. So how the **** do you know who hits harder exactly..

    Hardly the most outlandish statement ever made...

    thats 11/10 i know what you mean i just read a piece about belge and he sounds pretty poor to say the least.

    Looks like they might have tried to find someone who hatton has a chance to stop to make his record look a little better i.e stoppin an unbeaten fighter to help his world ranking?

    Or is this just me being cynical:hey

    Hatton can barely knock the skin off rice pudding.

    Just leave it alone!!

    I would go for Froch pts at 5/2 and ward pts at 4/6 accroding to ladbrokes. Not sure about JMM Katsidis, torn between JMM by Ko or PTs, no point backing him outright at 1/3.

    Think ill just leave the hatton fight alone.

    Bet of the weekend for me has to be chelsea 8/11 to beat newcastle who are without both 1st choice CBs and chelsea need a win to get back up and running. Think ill have a decent bet on it.

    i'm going to do a little bit on abraham to beat froch. i think abrahams defense is the key in this one as froch will be too open. i wouldn't be surprised if abraham stops him late.

    i think they will win and those odds look good but chelsea have problems in defence and hughton will go 4-4-2 with andy carrol ,ameobi and if they play well there a real handfull

    They can be but i as long as its alex and ivanovic at the back they should be fine,If newcastle go 442 i feel they will get battered,chelsea will dictate the midfield also how are campbell and taylor going to handle drogba they havent played all season? Is essien back for this game?

    Also newcastle have struggled at home when due to having to go and win the game IMO another reason why if they go 442 i think they will struggle.

    If we all fancied it buddy, it wouldn't be 5/2.

    20-6 :deal

    Lovely 11/8 winner to start the w/e.

    The biggest bonus is I opened an account with Coral to get a free £20 to do on the weekend.

    They should it annoys me when teams dont have a go at the bigger teams and try to defend for 90mins(which is impossible to do and not give chances away).

    They could prove me wrong i just think if you can handle newcastle physically you have a great chance to beat them(bolton,blackburn), chelsea can usually hold their own in this department and shuld have way too much class and the fact their without both 1st choice CBs is a bonus.
