    Yeah called that one wrong, although I did mention about the eye which was a deciding factor (the opposite one lol)

    Lenroy Thomas came in for an unexpected points win. Also had Groves by KO, credit to @dellboi94 for that one.

    What sites do you guys use for boxing betting? I only use paddy power atm and wondered if any other betting sites cover a wider range of fights?

    I find that usually Paddy Power has the best odds for boxing but I don't know about any sites with a greater variety.

    Betting on boxing is hard work.

    It is very hard, the odds on straight win or loss are ridiculas most of the time, ive found betting on the fight going under or over rounds to be a more viable way to win though.

    bettin on the boxing isnt the best at all... I bet on the football plenty but it just doesnt work for me in boxing... I think its mainly down to the amount of one sided fights there are now. Normally its fairly easy to predict the winners but the odds are rotten. The only real money I have made from betting on the boxing is from draws. I tend to stick a quid on fights that I think might be a draw, ie. Williams/ Smith recently. I did put a fiver on draw for Canelo and GGG @ 22/1. Thats the only real money iv made from betting on the boxing sadly

    It is hard to find value, though you can find good bets. I had Groves 6/4 to stop Jamie Cox at any stage which I felt was free money before the fight.

    I use betfair and you can get some great value on underpopulated markets. They don't really get going till around fight night so some real bargains to be had.

    The lay market can also produce good results especially on the round betting.
