Going to this event on the 18th with a mate, got ringside tickets and am really looking forward to it. Putting a few bets on but stuck on a couple of the bouts. Kell Brook Vs Michael Jennings - I haven't seen much of Brook but know a lot is expected from him and the bookies have him as a dead cert, thing is he's odds on to win by stoppage but I think Jennings is durable so is Brook a good enough boxer to win on points or do the bookies have it right? 2nd one i'm stuck on is Sexton Vs Chisora, Chisora was up on points in their 1st bout and then stopped him, i know Sexton has improved but i don't know which way to go here, was thinking Chisora stoppage or Sexton points. Any advice appreciated. My other predictions are :- Cleverley - Points Macklin - Stoppage Macarinelli - Stoppage Degale - Stoppage Gavin - Stoppage Rhodes - Points
If it does not - it will be a real shame as great fight for both, but it needs to happen as one of the above definately ain't happening
I really hope the Macklin fight happens as it's the one i'm most looking forward to. Chisora looked dead on his feet in the 6th vs Sexton as did Sexton against Rogan, i think it might struggle to go the distance so will maybe take a chance on the Chisora stoppage. So Brook should stop Jennings then?
I posted this in another thread: The bets I'm liking at the moment for each fight are: Brook vs Jennings - either to win on points: 13/8 (Sky Bet) Chisora vs Sexton - Chisora by stoppage: 11/10 (Betfred) Macklin vs Barker - Macklin by stoppage: 7/2 (Boylesports) DeGale vs Dilks - Degale rounds 7-12: 5/2 (Sporting Bet) Rhodes vs Konecny - either to win on points: 4/5 (Sky Bet) Enzo vs Frenkel - Frenkel rounds 1-6: 7/2 (Sporting Bet) Clev vs Murat - Clev on points: 13/8 (Ladbrokes) Gavin vs Kelly - Gavin by stoppage: 2/9 (Boylesports) Can do an acc. with Sporting Bet (which excludes the Gavin fight) and you get odds of 703/1
Brook will KO jennings. I have backed sexton as i see the fight 50/50 and the odds are 2/1 for a sexton win so ive took that. i
How confident are you that Brook will stop Jennings? Because, even though I am a Brook fan, I can't see it...
Well ****, I already have 2 avatar bets riding on this fight but what the hell Brook's not a massive puncher, Jenning's has been in with proven punchers in the past (Takaloo, Pryce, Mutley etc.), has only been stopped once by body shots, he is very hard to hit to the head with his reflexes and will be constantly moving so Brook, who usually relies on follow up punches to get his guy out of there, will find it very hard to do so.
Cheers for the help lads, can Brook out box Jennings then to win on points? Think i might go for Sexton stoppage now.
Its the way fwank works, never gonna put these 2 in 2gether... ticket seller then pulls the plug...wouldnt surprise me if 1 of them or both got a nice little cut out of it..............
If this happens i should be entitled to a percentage of the ticket price back but know i wouldn't get anything! Really hope the card stays the same....
