Boxing 4/9 - 4/10

[Ghost Kid]

I tell you what
if that guy Belghecham had any power, he would be an AWESOME force at middleweight
He can take shots all night long, and he never gets tired.
He was battering Barker all over the ring the last 6 rnds.
that guy was an animal !
Barker is one lucky son of a bitch

badlefthook synopsis:

"In a very entertaining fight, Darren Barker won the vacant European middleweight title over Affif Belghecham. Barker (22-0, 14 KO) won on scores of 116-112, 118-110 and 116-114. The scores were awful. Barker clearly lost at least rounds seven through eleven, and I gave the third and 12th rounds to Belghecham, too. I had it 115-113 for Belghecham, but could see a draw, and could even see a 115-113 Barker card. 118-110 in this fight is just as pathetic as 118-110 Diaz over Malignaggi from last August. There is no way in hell that Barker won 10 of 12 rounds. That's absurd. I like Darren Barker, and I think he's definitely the better fighter, but he didn't fight a smart fight in this one. He wore himself out, ran around the ring for the second half of the fight, and couldn't deter Belghecham. This fight was obviously set up to make Barker the new European champ at 160, and they accomplished that. Belghecham didn't really have a legitimate chance outside of a knockout, and he can't punch."

Did you guys know Feliciano had Quintana down the last fight in rnd 2?

I didn't even know this till someone pointed it out to me

Yikes....I don't like that at all for the Puerto Rican

Feliciano has no speed, no power, and is pretty far gone

I wonder how much of a knockdown it was....hmmmmmmmm.........

:00x32

About Sprott-Harrison....

About Sprott-Harrison....

Kinda weird how in both fights the guy handily winning at the time gets brutally stretched by a lucky punch. Only in boxing.....:shrug:

 

[The Brainiac]

2 minutes left in the fight I believe and Sprott actually rocked him then my stream died and odds got suspended on betfair , I've thought Fraudley got starched or they've thrown in the towel :mj07: :mj07:
What a surprise when I got my stream back up :scared

 

[THE_THONG]

:mj07:

that shit is like what happened to my friends watching Katsidis - Casamayor

they thought katsidis was gonna win, when their stream came back up, casa was being hoisted as victor

 

[Andrey]

OK I finalized my bets.
1.parlay Harrison -250 comes to +100 small
Holyfield -220
2. Daud Yordan +350 small
3. Orlando Lora +105 small
4. Mark Melligen -140 medium

All in all, quiet week like Romi said. No big bets.

same to you weasel same to you :toast:

 

[Ghost Kid]

I'm taking a shot on Yordan +400
Hard to tell how good (or bad) this kid is from less than 2 rounds of action against Guerrero, but I Caballero looked like shit against Mathebula

This fight tonight is at 126
Maybe the higher weight will help Celestino, or maybe he suddenly doesn't have the advantages he had before squeezing down to 118 and 122

worth a shot I think

 

[Ghost Kid]

Estrada and Lora seems like a nightmare....the worst type of fight to have money on

A shot brawler vs. an unknown with a built up record (that no footage exists of)

NO PLAY for me
simple outcome though
if Lora can take a punch and hit hard, he wins
If he is like Oganov and/or Tyrone Brunson, he will lose

 

[Andrey]

Thanks Matt! Good luck to you too!

Solid picks Andrey.

Good Luck :thumb:

Last time I've watched an undefeated guy with close to no footage on is Hernan Marquez getting spanked by Richie Mepranum a month ago :142smilie :mj07:

Sprott out cold
