Boxing 11/4 - 11/5
- Thread starter BOXLOCKS
- Start date
5dimes is trying to get you to lay juice on a 2.5 to 1 underdog by giving the dog way too many points
If Marquez stops Mabuza (which is the most likely outcome) you lost a -115 bet on a 2.5 to 1 dog

we really overestimated mabuza...he looked so loose out there...like he wasn`t prepared...or the stage just overwhelmed him...
he looked like a marionette...he wasn`t tight....he looked drugged...his movements were sluggish...his punches had little snap....no head movement....
a mismatch....
sometimes you just get `em wrong...
after watching this,2.5 to one may have been a bit light...

That was about as easy as I expected
Screw the small plays, I just made a sh*tload of cash on Lacy
This was my 3rd largest wager ever, right behing Gatti over Leija and Mayweather over Gatti
Huge night...with a big parlay riding on Mayweather in a few weeks
That one felt good...easy money

I'm not sure if I over estimated Mabuza or under estimated Marquez, I think its a little of both.
Mabuza was rocked badly in the 1st round and imo he never got his legs completely back. Despite the lack of balance and the multiple cuts, he came back to make it a decent fight untill it was stopped.
I agree that Marquez dominated the fight, but I'd like to see how Mabuza would've done on steady legs. Of course that would require not getting clocked early again, but I thought Mabuza landed some decent shots and he was taking Raf's power much better after he got caught cold in the 1st round.
I think Mabuza getting rocked in the 1st had a huge influence on how he performed the rest of the fight.
I'd like to see a rematch myself

i didn`t presume to speak for anyone else....my bad....
"i" overestimated mabuza...i thought he looked lax...that`s why he got caught with that counter left..it wasn`t slick...it was a basic down and up left hook...nothing fancy...mabuza was getting hit alot....his defense was horrible,imo..
i don`t think he did anything that would merit a rematch...
..he wasn`t tight....he just looked like he didn`t realize who he was in there with....
i know that it`s not good to be to wound up.....but mabuza looked like he was sparring early...
marquez was all business...
as far as pemberton goes....that was an easy call,imo....pemberton is a very good club fighter....that`s it...
he was slower than lacy...less athletic...not nearly as strong....not as good a chin....and he wasn`t in new england to get several standing eight counts....he`d been off for over a year...
other than that,he had a shot...
the under 8.5 was a gift....it was totally up to lacy how long that fight was gonna go...
an utter mismatch....i still don`t know how sheika manged to lose...twice...to that palooka...
did you hear him after the fight?...he was just happy to collect the check....no disrespect intended,but,the guy isn`t going to medical school..
had the under in mabuza and the under with lacy(big for me)...and lacy parlayed ad infinitum....many pending.....made some with jhonny gonzales...
lost yesterday with the termeliksten/powell under....a little on codrington(ouch).....and lost today with the hussein under...and had gonzales parlayed with mabuza....
the mabuza bet and the parlay were cheap at the odds that were offered...so, it was a good weekend..
won good money...would have scorched `em with the ufc and these winners if mabuza had gotten lucky...but,as i said,he looked way out of his league....
congrats,gents....
what about this s.o.b. klitschko...i can understand the injury issue....but...i think this was the 4th injury postponement with rahman..
the 4th..that`s more than 3...
he was declared fit,but didn`t like the "stiff feel" of thel leg brace....
makes him look bad...even if it`s totally legit..
put him in a straight jacket and leg irons until the next fight....
that is,if they`re comfy...

Don't get me wrong, Marquez dominated
But I'm not about to write off Mabuza as a top level fighter just yet.
Mabuza got rocked at 1:30 of the first round, got caught cold. It seemed to me that he never fully recovered from that shot, so imo what we saw of Mabuza from that point forward was a dazed and confused version. So I don't want to base my opinion of him on the 3.5 rounds I watched after he got caught cold and seriously hurt in first round. Like I said, Mabuza was starting to take Marquez power much better as the fight went along, even though he was on unsteady legs. That tells me that he was just caught cold early, it happens to a lot of fighters.
Marquez may be the hardest pound for pound puncher in boxing right now, top 3 for sure.
