British Forum BETTING thread

Yes that's why i've backed half the field as well

 

7/4 Munroe against Quigg is way too big surely. Nothing to suggest that Munroe is on the way down and I think his performance against Nishioka would win him this fight quite comfortably to be honest.

Also think 9/4 Hall against Webb is too big, I realise Hall has something to prove in his comeback but surely its the same for Webb, after the burst ear drum thing against Arron.

 

I wouldn't touch that.

While McIntosh isn't the best he can still be very tricky, and with Bellew boxing more recently I can see it going to the later rounds at least.

 

Would go Bellew stoppage 5/6 instead if your only getting evens.

 

Any thoughts on Darchinyan/Yamanaka tomorrow? Yama opened at 7/4

 

I think Adamek would beat Chambers.

He's just a better operator, there's little natural size difference between them. Chambers is a bit quicker but he's lazy, Adamek has the knack of being able to win rounds....

I'd favour Tomasz strongly by decision.

 

Yeah, he's never been compulsive viewing but at HW he's not particularly easy on the eye.

I suppose he's aware of his limitations and relies on not being a fat, unfit **** to give himself an edge in fights.

To be honest it's particularly damning that a good LHW/CW (he's nothing more) can hold down a spot in the top 5 at heavyweight..... it's not like he possesses a particularly special attribute.

He's not a puncher, he's not fast, he's not hard to hit, he's not undentable.... just ticks most boxes fairly well.

 

Aye. He'd have most likely have stayed at the lower weight in any other era.

In the 90's he'd be a decent European contender that would lose as many as he won against decent fighters.

It says it all that we've got rugby players boxing part time to earn a few quid smacking around which ever fat knacker will get in there for the least money.

 

Absolutely no idea tbh mate. He's the home fighter though and Vic has looked on the slide a bit lately imo. Southpaw, decent record on paper it seems with stoppage wins over Christian Esquivel and Ryosuke Iwasa who was seemingly a decent prospect. I get the sense he has everything in his favour & is "supposed" to win so somewhat surprised to see him nearly a 2/1 underdog

 

Paul McCloskey vs Julio Diaz

Diaz is @ $5.15
Im on him, he can still box and paul's style is not a banger
