    Anyone doing a UEFA Cup bet. Always hard to get these with teams playing weak teams

    Yes.

    50% of my accy from Tuesday (which included BM at 10/11:D) went on the 2 English clubs to qualify at even money.

    As tipped again.

    That's my weekend sorted.

    What are the picks for this weekend in the SBO event? I've seen some decent odds on group round bets for a mid stoppage for Khan or Barrera...

    i have put a bit on to make it more interesting this weekend

    £5.00 accumulator:
    Enzo by stoppage
    Macklin by stoppage
    Abraham by stoppage
    Pryce by stoppage
    McCloskey to win outright

    not too much return, but like i said, makes it more interesting

    Interestingly McCloskey is 5/6 on to STOP Harrison.

    I agree with the odds, over 12 rounds I think he will stop him. I was hoping for a little more value though.

    If you are going to include all of those fights you'll do well if it comes through...but really any number could go wrong.

    Pryce/Hall, Khan/MAB, Cook/Martinez...good chance one of these does not go your way. I've seen Maccarinelli at better odds too, 1/6.

    Anyway, if it was me I'd take a small bet on Khan/Pryce/Maccarinelli/Cook PTS and Macklin instead of Fury.

    I fancy Elcock to be honest, plus I wont be betting Enzo or Fury at those odds.

    Pryce, Cook and I cant decide on Khan Mab.

    I really dont know if there is money to be made this w/e on the boxing.

    May stick to the handicap betting for the 6 nations.

    Yep they are all 50/50 matchups, and not even the type where its obvious who will win.

    Nobody has a stylistic edge in Hall/Pryce, but Pryce has better experience. Pryce is likely too slick, but at the same time he's at his worst under pressure.

    Khan has no chin and we don't know what Barrera really has left.

    Martinez is an unknown quantity. But I'd say the best value of the evening could be Cook on PTS. The kid can box but his power is nothing. The bookies must know something we don't with Martinez, I wouldn't put much, but I've not really bothered researching this guy yet. Maybe when I get home. From the little I saw on Barrera/Khan countdown he looked pretty wild and crude, but big and strong. Good chance Cook outboxes him for a close decision if thats typical for him.

    anyone else think that Fury to win on points @6/1 is worth a punt?

    i think i may have to go for it
