    They just put odds for it up. You like him by KO? How much?!

    Haven’t seen either guy but on paper Taylor seems to be a KO machine and he’s the bigger guy.

    I might bet it but Kiladze has been KO'd (not TKO'd) in his last three fights. Even if Alfonso isn't that good you never know if Kiladze's chin is completely cracked. Kiladze might go down on the first clean shot that lands.

    Wilder-Breazeale is two glass cannons looking to KO either other. Sure, you have to favor Wilder but Breazeale definitely has a chance at pulling off the knockout IMO.

    It's always a little worrying when someone is predicting a fighter getting stopped for the very first time as a professional. Taylor ITD is +175, so not a huge price.

    -360 for the fight to not go the distance seems like free money. You just have to lay a lot to collect.

    That’s how I feel. He can certainly win by KO, but will he?

    Have you watched the Abel Ramos fight?

    If not, you should. There aren't many fighters "near the top" in boxing who are as defensively poor as Ivan. Taylor can punch, and has a damn good engine, on top of being the bigger fighter. Lets not forget where the fight's taking place either, you don't exactly have to kill someone to get a stoppage in the UK.

    You say +175 like it isn't enticing enough.

    What did you see in the Abel Ramos fight? Baranchyk wasn't even hurt 1% there. It was a classic flash KD, Baranchyk was making one step to the left from his position and was caught by a nice left hook. Abel Ramos on the other side is decent. Abel Ramos win was as good as Taylors win over Postol imo.

    You think... Abel Ramos is as good as Postol?

    I think we might just be of very different opinions here... :lol:

    Postol was beaten to **** by an unknown Uzbek fighter and received a massive gift & robbery there. He was dropped and beaten from the first round. No idea how the gave him the win in that fight, it was one of the worst robberies i have ever seen. Then he fought Taylor. Not sure if this is a better win than Ramos who only lost to Prograis before facing Baranchyk. And he gave Prograis a tough night. Ramos is definitely underrated. Not saying he beats Postol, this is clash of styles anyway. Still, Ramos only lost to world class fighters. And he's definitely a "tougher" matchup than Postol. I think Baranchyk will be a very hard test for Taylor. I am not saying he can't stop him but saying Baranchyk is weak or vulnerable because of the Ramos fight is bull**** and has no base. Baranchyk KD vs. Ramos was 70% balance issue and 30% punch effect, not sure if he was even 1% hurt in there. His chin is good, his recovery even better. Taylor isn't a big one single puncher anyway, he has good combos and won most of his fights via TKO (9/12). He isn't a KO machine like said before. Wouldn't be surprised if Baranchyk goes the distance without getting hurt once.

    Ustinov at +1600 against Joyce. Any value? Ustinov has only lost to Hunter, Pulev, and Charr. And really, how good is Joyce? Is he better than those three fighters? I feel like it will be a fight between two slow, lumbering heavyweights. Joyce has youth on his side but he is really still pretty green with only 8 pro fights to his name. If a guy is -10000, there better be no doubt in anyone's mind that he wins. Is that the case here?

    Joyce is supposed to be as good as advertised apparently

    42. Joyce is 33 with only eight pro bouts to his name. He's old for a prospect.

    I probably won't bet it though. While I do think Joyce will get exposed at some point, I doubt Ustinov is the guy to do it.
