    I'm sure you'd get a very good price. Not only for him to fight DLH but also get KO'd? Go into a bookies and ask, report back here. I'd be interested to see. :yep Reckon you might get 10/1

    Yeah cheers pal. I reckon I should get more than that especially seeing as he looks primed to fight Marquez :yep

    Probably yeah...come to think of it.

    If the fight was actually made I think De La Hoya would be about 4/6 to win. To win by KO maybe 7/5.

    Then on top of that the fight to get made, perhaps I wasn't being generous enough. Maybe 8/1. That works out at about 20/1.

    will have two multi bets this weekend...
    I usually do one somewhat safe bet each week, followed by another multi. Had Uruguay and Costa Rica drew 0-0 in Costa Rica, I would have taken home a nice wad of cash last week. Still, my safe bet got up which was only a 4/1 multi.

    This weeks safe bet...

    Kessler to win
    Wales to beat Argentina (rugby)
    Australia to beat Scotland (rugby)
    Man U to beat Everton
    Rangers to win.

    For a $20 bet, I'l get $61 if it gets up.

    The other bet is all of the above with these two fixtures added...

    Arsenal to beat Sunderland
    Leeds Utd to win

    A $20 bet will get me $191 back if it gets up.

    If Beeston Brawlers lurking about, can you tell me how Leeds have been playing recently?
    I haven't seen any of their games this year, I just know that they're killing it by far, and the odds on that bet is too good to refuse.

    And TFFP, you don't think I should bet on Kessler?

    Leeds are evens to win away at Brighton.

    Certainly worth sticking in an accumulator on current form, in 15 league games we are 11-1-3 (w-l-d).

    I'd say Wales will squeak past Argentina despite my doubts about their team selection...... the odds for Wales winning by less than 12.5pts is 7/5 - looks the best bet to me, the over is 4/5.

    I'm running with NZ, Australia, Wales, SA, Ireland and France all to win on Saturday..... the accumulator is **** so I'm gonna stick some margins in there to make it worthwhile :good

    . . .I guess my only concern is that it's spoken about so often now a fighter who manages to hold on until the final bell against VK would get a hell of a lot of credit. Enough to play for it regardless of the decision?

    I wouldn't bet on Kevin Johnson being stopped...he has a good defence. He might realize he's beat and play it safe. Arreola got so far and he was plodding forward getting beat up. I think thats why its as good as 8/15 when Vitali was like 1/4 to stop Arreola.

    And nope, I don't think Kessler is a sure thing at 1/2. I havn't done my official pick and analysis for that fight but I will do tomorrow.

    I was never Captain of the official longboat, that was Decebal !

    I'm still firmly on board, but you'll just have to wait and see for my prediction. It might be a surprise...or maybe not :D

    Exactly my thought after I got over the initial excitment of seeing a near 1/2 for a VK KO!

    Can see me putting the KO in a small stake accumulator but won't be loading up on it as a single bet. :-(
