    Chambers was pretty much at evens days before the fight. After the weigh in and a lot of money coming in for him he was about 10/13.

    Not seen enough (any) of Quigley to punt on that fight.

    I was tempted to have a dabble on this one..... but after a quick bit of Boxrecing have decided to leave alone.

    Dodson is the bigger name and has boxed in better company..... but has done little of note since being beaten by Froch, other than a close points win over the guy that lost to Anderson last night (forgotten his name already!). Quigley has a stoppage win over the same opponent, and a stoppage loss to Cleverly a while back.

    A fairly even match IMO though I lean slightly in Dodson's favour. The odds aren't enticing enough though.

    Aye, purely from Boxrec Quigley would seem a good value bet. But having seen nothing of him I just couldn't bet on something like that without having an idea of styles. Too much of a punt.

    I've got an accumulator on Betfair for England, Spain and Italy to win today. Special offer...any winnings are tripled by Betfair.

    I'm kind of suprised that the odds are so close, thought Froch would be the underdog, but I think bookies are realising that its way too big a risk, with what a quality fighter Froch is. But no will not be betting.

    I am not placing a bet on this one. I like both kids who both come to fight. this will be the toughest challenge of Froch's career. If pushed I might pick Taylor but I rteally like Froch as well. There is no BS about Froch he comes to fight. Very refreshing attitude. I would have fancied Froch strongly against Calzaghe.

    the racing post paper found the best bet for dodson fight it was 4/5 not to go the distance had a few quid on that and this morning im still feelin very lucky !! not many fights finish in the 12th round i was about to put the slip on the fire, i thought this was a good bet with neither man having a history of goin the 12 round distance i was nearly wrong!

    I'm going, so will wait until I get to USA as I'm sure the odds on Froch will be better there
