Alright so the fights on Saturday have me pretty intrigued. PDL-Broner I know nothing of Broner just saw some youtube and while he looked sharp and fast i saw his record and he has faced no one of note. He obviously has a style where he could outbox PDL but also his hands are much too low for a fighter like PDL to take advantage of. With PDL as a slight favorite at +110 is he a good bet?? Alvarez-Hatton Its something like 16 to 1 in favor of Alvarez so not really interested in that. Its the over/under that looks decent. Its set at 7.5 on bodog. I myself think if Alvarez KO Baldomir in 6 Hatton should be no problem in less than 8. I really dont know much about Hatton but the little footage i have seen doesnt really look like a guy defensive enough to avoid an early stoppage. Advice anyone???
Thats what im thinking. If Broner kept his hands up i would say it could be a shut out but those low hands are not a good idea against PDL. Specially now that he has straightened his punches.
Alvarez is 16 to 1. Not really worth the bet in my opinion. I would say the over under is the better bet.
7.5 on Bodog. It looks yummy. But can't tell over or under. Bettors are leaning on over, at least on Bodog.
Tough ass call on Alvarez. On the one hand, this is supposed to be an opportunity for him to face some adversity and develop as a fighter. On the other hand, he's fighting a Euro. I'd take PDL and leave the main event alone.
Thats what im thinking too. Im usually pretty good with the over/under though. If i knew more about Hatton i could feel confident picking it. I think ima do myself a favor and stay away from it though.....
What about the over/under on the PDL fight? Bodog also has that at 7.5 and I don't see PDL getting starched by many people in the first half of a fight. It's -175.
Matthew Hatton is pretty resilient but fades quickly and lacks technical skills. He's an agressive guy who's brother has got him further than he would otherwise be. Matthew has never come across a young, heavy hitting mexican warrior who traditionally fights in the weight above him. Matthew is going to feel pain here.
