Iggy v Holyfield: A friendly wager

i see holyfield hitting iggy with that signature left hook and knocking him out cold around the 10th or 11th round.

 

I think you've made a good choice. I'm not saying Holyfield is going to win but there's no way Sultan stops him in 4 rounds. Holyfield has lost a lot of stuff but not his chin or heart and even a 44 year old Holyfield has more than enough chin and heart to carry him past 4 rounds with Sultan. :good

 

Great bet. while i think brag will win, no way he takes holy out in 4

 

Yeah, noone is stopping Evander early...just aint gonna happen.

IN FACT, I am still favoring Holyfield in this one.

 

I actually think this is likely the general way it will go myself - Holyfield by late stoppage. However, regardless of whether you or I have over-estimated what Holyfield has left, or underrated Ibragimov - NO WAY he knocks Holyfield out in 4 or less, no way.:yep

 

If anyone is getting stopped inside 4 its going to be Sultan. Evander is taking the belt in this one.

 

Don't know if Holy will win this but I do know there is no way he gets stopped this early,if at all.:good

 

perfect bet.

 

You can't even call that a bet. Call it a donation from him to you.

 

How closely does your friend follow boxing? Even if he lucks up and wins, he made a stupid bet.

 

Man your bet is as good as when I got one of my friends to bet Tyson KO Lewis in 5. actually yours is better

 

No.

If he wins, the bet starts to look smart.

 

It will look better, but the logic behind the bet is poor, no matter the outcome. Unless this person can detect otherwise undetectable cues outside the grasp of everyone else. Which I doubt.

 

A bet may look foolish before the event has happened.

If you bet on me against Mike Tyson, most would agree that was a foolish bet.

But after the event, if you have won, the bet can no longer be considered foolish.

If I pull it off against Mike somehow, then you made a smart bet.
