    Good post above, agreed.

    Yes good point - we basically accept it don't we as a right of passage. A promising heavyweight will always get a few of the likes of Kevin Johnson, Dorian Darch, Tom Little etc before stepping up. They even seem to be using the same opponents now - I swear Richard Lartey has fought most of the 'next gen' HWs.

    They find they can get more work losing fights than winning them !

    The way they market them makes me laugh - essentially because Dubois had a couple of shaky moments against Lartey they now brand him as a 'dangerous opponent' for the likes of Gorman and Wardley !

    Joyce was 2/1 from the start and even shorter come fight night. I remember because I bet Joyce aswell. Stop lying, 8/1 is absurd

    All I remember is I won, I've got the transactions in my account from back in November from Paddypower/PayPal.

    Odds were definitely better than 2/1 when I bet.

    I'm really, really, really sorry you didn't get the same odds mate. If I could change that for you, I genuinely would.

    Yeah, maybe I bet on him winning in the second half of the fight which would explain the better odds mate.

    But don't let that fool anyone, I'm a massive liar, liar and my bottom is on fire, as has been well established on here.

    I could, but where would be the fun in that?

    Seriously though, Paddypower won't show bet slips over 3 months old, but I've already come to terms with my lying, so all is well.
