Yes those are very generous odds, who is offering 16-1 because I feel like milking that bookie. You ca back the stoppage at 16 and lay it off elsewhere, very good arb if you can really get 16-1.
Thanks for that. Not enough market at betfair yet to lay this off so I think I am going to back it at Ladbrokes now for a few bob and closer to the bout lay it off, especially if the lay off price is only 6 odd (decimals).
I hate decimal odds. Its just not as instinctive (to me) as fractional odds, I can't just look quickly at a bet and know exactly whats being offered.
I was like that but now prefer decimals as it is easier to work things out when you are bonus grabbing or taking advantage of arbs. Some good bonus grab offers on at the moment if you have got a decent float at betfair.
I think you may get better odds than that closer to the fight. Alot of patriotic betting on betfair may move the price up higher.
It's only 6-1 on Betfair at the moment but there's been very little activity (sorry Kurt only just noticed you posted the same thing) There are big gaps at present between Ladbrokes and betfair for either man to win by stoppage. Ironically I doubt either will !!! Doesn't matter though. I agree Gaz, decimal odds are awful. The American + / - is even worse. But it's just down to what you grew up with I guess. I know how people who don't understand betting feel now when they have their annual bet on the national !
There will be no money up for a long while though. Only £66 traded on all outcomes at the moment. I think the price will go higher as many will feel Paulie wont have the power. When Hatton weighs in looking in good shape the price will go out past 16/1 imo.
I hear you However Hatton is 7/2 for the stoppage with Laddies What do you think he'll end up at? 'Patriotic betting' suggests lower IMO
Hatton ain't never going to stop him. Malignaggi will get 2 minutes a round free in clinches, which he'll be happy to engage in.
It wouldn't surprise me if Hatton stopped him, Cotto was dead at the weight for the Pauli fight and doesn't like fighting for sustained periods any case.
It's hard to say but I do think it will get shorter closer to the fight but it depends how Hatton looks at the weigh in, I'm assuming he will look in good condition. Personally I see Hatton winning by UD in a fight that wont be easy on the eye :yep
