Give me one reason not to be bitter towards you, all you have done since you started posting here is question my plays. Hell you even called me out on a +240 dog that your boy Joey liked also.
I didn't see your last reply (before you backed out of it) so I can't respond to it. But I'm sure it was just more disrespectful BS and I don't have time for that anyway.
I like how you always say "on paper" like I haven't seen 80% of the fights televised in America in last 10 years, including the Morales-Ayala fight which was only 1.5 years ago. I have seen Barrera and Ayala fight several times and knew they were both as tough as it gets. IMO Morales is a more accurate and harder puncher than Barrera and Ayala never even hit the canvas it that fight.
Most people thought Barrera was shot going into this fight not Ayala.
In retrospect I still think I was on the right side, but Barrera was determined to make a statement in this fight and caught Ayala with some very hard, well placed body shots in the mid rounds that Ayala never recovered from. Thats how it goes, even the most solid picks lose sometimes. And just because I use stats and numbers in my explanations doesn't mean I haven't seen examples each.
Untill you show me some respect, I won't be showing you any.
Btw, you said before that you couldn't post plays per an agreement with Joey, but Joey doesn't work for Oly anymore so whats you're excuse now?

I am glad you want to bring up the Guzman fight. Joey and I did disagree on that fight. If you really want to know the truth he started Guzman at -120 (which I bet), then I told him he would be wise to move it up a good bit (and he did). I guess that pretty much shows why I disagreed with your Guzman pick.
Disagreeing with someone isn't the same as disrespect. I have never said anything disrespectfull towards you. Not that it matters. I don't care if a namesless,faceless person is disrespectfull towards me or not. Go ahead if you want but my opinion will still be around.
Not sure why your ranting about MAB-Ayala. I SAID I AGREED WITH YOUR PICK!! It seemed like a distance fight. You say that a lot of people thought MAB was done, well a lot of people who saw Ayala struggle with a bum in his last fight thought the same about him. Regardless, he has always shown to take a great punch (both of them have).
Lastly, I won't ever post picks as long as Joey is a bookmaker....ANYWHERE. What sense does that make. He runs the numbers by me, I give him an opinion 1 way or another. Now, if I am posting picks and posted Guzman -120, when the lowest anyone can find is -185 how much grief would I take for that?? Or Ikeke last year I got at +550 (against Kenny Ellis), I guarantee nobody else did because he dropped the number a lot, very quickly. Joey is a VERY good bookmaker but he is human and will make a slip up now and then. Not to say that I am perfect ( I am not), but I help him when I see something that looks off.
