    I had a similar thing with Quigg/Munroe draw in the first fight - I actually backed the draw at two different books and one paid and one argued the point but paid in the end, so that worked out for me. This one was only a tenner at 9/2 but I have registered my concern so will see what they do.

    Haven't had an email from them yet but i've just logged into my account and my balance reads: "Promo cash: £50.00".

    My initial bet was £50, however, i also put my £25 free bet on it as well. I'm guessing i won't get my £25 until i place another bet but i might ask just in case.

    Has anyone had any joy getting outright bets on Botha voided? I know Betvictor have voided both MOV and outright bets but WH are so far refusing to void my outright bet.

    I have always understood that outright bets stand even if the distance is changed, however in this circumstance where it was possibly/probably changed to affect the result you would like to think they would make a gesture of goodwill and give you your money back. You might want to cut and past a couple of the articles calling the fight fixed and mail to them with your repeated request. They are a big firm and point out that its not good to be associated with a fixed fight.

    given up on gettin my money back on sbw and botha...******* bookies

    bets for tonight Frampton by unanimous decision...dont think frampton is a really heavy hitter and while kiko is a scary lil fuker i think frampton should be able to comfortably outbox him... kiko is well aware of this hence why he is trying to bait frampton into a firefight with him.

    gonna wait til the odds are on skybet and bet on an early ko in the proksa fight.

    bit wary about betting on a selby unanimous decision cos of the fight being in ireland....not saying irish judges are bent but i still remember the scoring in Mccloskey v Prescott

    is the Proksa fight on the Frampton undercard?

    Yeah i think so - Dunno who he's in with though, somewhere has it against lee noble and boxrec has him against norbert snekkesxes (weird latvian sounding name i cant pronounce haha)

    Incidentally Noble has already been tko'd in 3 by proksa and norbert has been koed in the 1st a few times by average opposition, just waitin for skybet to gimme some odds.

    How you seen the Frampton fight Acs

    if they put nice odds for a early ko i might put it on
    im not riskin the Frampton fight i was gonna do Frampton in 8-12 or points but i dont know his opponent so id be goin off what other people been sayin
    i made a rule to myself never bet unless i know both people lol
    ill be watchin in play tho i might get lucky, what about u what u puttin on that?

    its a good rule, i made that mistake with rabchenko v vitu...(cedric who??...the guy who didnt get bombed out early n cost me a tenner.lol)

    Ive seen kiko fighta few and he loves to load up on his hooks, he throws them fast and with alot of dig,to the best of my recollection hes never really been hurt, rendall munroe beat him by leaning on him and pushing him, back, i doubt Frampton can do that but hes an far better boxer and im not sold on his power despite some great koes. easiest money looks to be ladbrokes unanimous decision at 12/5.

    if Framptons chin holds up theres no way he loses in ireland kiko would need to win 9 rounds just to lose by majority.

    Not sure about the Frampton fight. Might put a few £ on Frampton to win on Points but i'm not sure. A world title fight isn't far away and i have a feeling he might look to just win without taking many risks.

    I like the look of Selby/Frampton 8-12 or PTS double @ 5/2
