    Taken Floyd to decision Mosley at 6/4. Massive price.

    Mosley is 1.53 to be knocked down on skybet which is quite possibly the worst price I have ever seen. A shame they dont have a not to be knocked down price.

    Can you lay on Skybet?

    If you can I'm straight on there taking that.

    I've run with Booth to stop Marsh at 13/8 (Boylesports)..... decision was 4/5 last time I checked.

    Have Cas made any signings of note during the close season?

    I wasn't all that impressed with Leeds last week, bar the new signing Delaney. Eastwood hopefully will shift a bit of timber and improve.

    They signed Steve Snitch from Wakey, Paul Jackson from Huddersfield but thats about it and when Cas played Huddersfield in a friendly recently they were supposed to be awful.
    IMO Leeds would have got 50 last week if it hadnt been for the snow but this week if the weather and pitch is ok, Leeds should easy win by more than 16.

    Very generous if you ask me. I'd price that the other way round...4/6. A lot of people are on Mosley's jock for this fight...too many hearts ruling heads.

    I think Mayweather is nailed on to win, and there is more chance of Aliens landing on earth tomorrow than him knocking out Shane.

    How much is everyone putting on that?

    Kos..... have you seen anything of Hammond, 3/1 seems like it's worth £10 to me.

    That does seem like a great price.

    I think Shane could give Floyd more problems than most due to his longer reach but can't see even Richardson coming up with a strategy that will beat Floyd.

    Torn between placing something on that now or waiting until nearer the time and taking the risk that the price will fall.

    :?

    The 6/4 has already gone. Now skybet go 5/4. Sportingbet are 4/6.

    Like TFFP I think Floyd is nailed on. Margarito who uses his face to defend himself and is far slower than Mosley has skewed a lot of peoples thoughts. This will be a comfortable decision.

    I cannot believe those odds. The bookies are falling for the same old trick again without taking into account styles.

    For anyone interested in the Six Nations over the weekend......

    Ireland -21 vs Italy EVENS
    Italy +21 Ireland EVENS

    England -4 Wales EVENS
    Wales +4 England EVENS

    Scotland +7 France EVENS
    France -7 Scotland EVENS

    Games take place in Dublin, Twickers and Edinburgh.....

    All odds with Boylesports.... 7/1 for the treble.

    I fancy Italy to stay within 21 of Ireland, Wales to beat England regardless of a 4 point start.

    The only tricky one for me is Scotland vs France.

    I don't think he has ever been on TV before, but I have read reports that he is a banger and with Concepcion not having the best chin it seems to be worth a punt at 3/1.
