I am caught in two minds. I think Selby wins, slightly favour points but starting to think more and more Warrington might walk onto one as he gets desperate late on. Selby 9/1 to win between rounds 9-12 is good value I feel.
Yes feel like that is a good value bet. Definitely the sort of time frame it could happen. I' still go Selby anytime stoppage as if it gets heated 6 or 7 rounds is a long time to walk on to shots.
Selby starts fast and I think Warrington will be several rounds down by round 9 and will finish stronger but that's when he will leave himself open.
I'm going to say it'll be a split decision - probably a bad one for Warrington. I think Selby hasn't fought anyone meaningful since having a tough night with Montiel and with Warrington's non-stop pressure and style, the judges could be left with choosing what they like - as Selby will have the better footwork, jab and eye-catching shots, yet he'll be walking backwards alot. I think a home cooking could be on the cards.
I have been saying Selby by comfortable UD but I think @moog shout about the later rounds is a good one. Especially 9/1. I just think the sheer accumulation of punches received and then the exhaustion of having given everything he could well be stopped by the ref. At the same time though the corner won’t be throwing the towel in and being the clear home favourite I’m not sure how willing the ref will be to stop it? Selby Decision with a little saver on 9-12.
I'm thinking more along your lines too. I see it as a competitive fight, Warrington to push the action and Selby to counter. If it's close Warrington shall be given a split decision. If Selby slightly edge it, it could be a draw decision, which I have a fiver on. Fiver on split decision to Warrington too.
Was thinking of putting money on a Selby points win. If Warrington bags a few rounds though, could the crowd sway the judges???
8/13 for a Selby decision. 9/2 for a Warrington decision. hmmmm. Might just stick a bit on Warrington in case of a home cooking or Selby has an off night.
No one giving Warrington much a chance here then ? Main factors is selby ok at weight is he used to sort pressure warrington will bring and crowd etc. Do think selby points myself but not as easy as everyone else seems to think Think josh have his moments
Yes I think your right on the weight aspect and also Warrington will be pulled along by a great crowd and I do think it' a good and competitive fight I just think in boxing it' about levels and I see Selby being a level above Warrington. To good of a boxer
Warrington is hyped to the max - reminds me of Hatton pre floyd. Is he going to be too eager to close the gap against someone who's happy to slide of land a 1-2 and slide out of way... Can see Warrington getting picked of as he tries to rush in and Selby is the better boxer and his composure could e key.. Think it will be a 116-112 type of fight with both fighters having there moments but Selbys movement and slight height and reach advantages will probably see him home he probably has a slight power advantage to.
