    I'm leaning towards the over, but it's hard to say. Jacobs has a big edge in speed, is the harder puncher, and the overall better fighter, but has a fairly weak chin. He could outclass Lorenzo and get a TKO, and catching him and getting a KO isn't completely impossible. But Lorenzo is pretty durable, has never been knocked out, and has faced much better opposition the last three years, so I think it's more likely that he doesn't get hurt and this goes the full 10.

    Anyone else pick up on the Enzo ko? I had Enzo win, then pts an ko to cover myself and ended up with a tenner profit.

    Good call, hope you made the play. I think the chin vs power dynamic is overrated when we try to predict if there will be a knockout or not. If one fighter is simply much better he almost always has a chance of getting a knockout.

    Yes it is hard to predict, so much involved, like we need to do research the chins? The power? Who got koed by that power? Who is the ref? How fit the boxers? the **** list goes on and on, and we need to watch as many fights as possible.
    Ladbrokes another **** bookie I only made £400 next day received my restriction email, what the F***k, I rang them called they traders’ clowns, unprofessional ****s, etc.

    probably a fairly obvious answer to this, but none of the sites I've checked are letting me put on for anything other than a win either way or a draw? there's no round betting or an option to bet on a knockout, anybody know why this is?

    They will put all the odds up closer to the fight or after the weigh in

    Just seems strange as they've got a full list of odds for floyd Canelo the same night and fights way beyond that.

    Because Floyd vs Canelo is such a big fight theyd put them up early
    Most fights they put up the method of victory after the weigh ins

    They will closer to the fight, some bookies like 365 or Bwin do it a bit earlier as well.

    Not happening on Mayweather bill it never was to be fair, someone said it might and everyone thought it was, later in the year perhaps, third big fight on the bill is Smith/Molina with Theophane/Cano as the fourth decent fight

    I know canelo and money may is a blockbuster fight
    but Garcia and Matthysse is no small thing. This is the biggest fight in the division aswell.
