Could not resist.

Troy Ross over Cunningham at +425.

I think Cunningham wins on points but it won't be easy and these odds are out of whack.

:toast:

Totally agree Weepaul. Troy has a good chance to win here as long as he keeps up his punch volume and doesn't let USS Cunningham dictate the pace of the fight.

Pawel Wolak vs James Moore

Pawel Wolak vs James Moore

I like to know your guys take on this fight because I was thinking about the Under 9.5 +300. Wolak is relentless in his volume punching plodder style. James Moore has great amatuer career, but has not looked good as a pro when he has stepped up in class. Moore has looked slow, taken some lopsided beatings, and not dominated the pretenders.

Both not defensive wizards, and one guy is awful
I agree
probably goes to a decision, but at these odds small play is a no brainer

I think there is some value. I saw Moore 2 yrs back on espn and he looked god awful...dropped twice against a nobody. I wagered big on Foreman when Foreman fought him and thought Foreman would probably get him out. Foreman could have but he fought safety first and it went to a wide dec. Good luck!

those of you in Europe probably don't know about this, but in the United States today all anyone is talking about on the sports news is the umpire in the Detroit baseball game last night.

Pitcher has 2 outs in the 9th inning. One out away from one of the toughest feats in baseball - a perfect game.

They get what is perceived to be the last out of the game, the crowd goes crazy, the team starts to celebrate, THE UMPIRE CALLS THE RUNNER SAFE !!!
:mj07:

A horrible call and the media is going crazy today and demanding instant replay in American baseball. This might be the play that changes the rule.

The umpire issued a very heartfelt apology today, saying he botched it, that he "kicked the shit out of the call" and that he ruined the kid's moment.

Can you imagine some of these moronic judges in boxing issuing an apology for their scorecards a day later after further replay? IT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN.

I would love to see instant replay used in boxing though. Not for scoring, but for headbutts, cuts, fouls, running leaps from the ring, etc. Kermit Cintron would have to find a new career immediately if they instituted instant replay.

At the official weigh-in Aschersleben on Thursday afternoon Harry Duiven Jr. shoved the ?German Oak? Timo Hoffman when posing in front of the photographers completely across the room. However, security guards intervened at once to subdue the worked up Dutchman. Hoffmann was completely surprised about the situation was ?This is something I haven?t ever experienced,? he said. Big talk is common, but physical violence is new to me?"

Tell Timo this is boxing

Replay in boxing

Replay in boxing

Not possible in the present climate. Boxing is WAY too subjective. Even headbutts can be perceived as intentional or accidental at any given time. Plus the dirt-bags who control boxing would lose a large measure of that control, and that ain't about to happen. We love the sport, but it is festooned with corruption. As an aside to Foreman-Cotto, sometimes it isn't about the better man winning the fight, it's about other things. Case in point; Oscar de La Whore and Felix Sturm. If anyone watched that abortion, it was not about Sturm being the better man, it was de La Whore needing a middleweight title to put up versus Hopkins. A totally orchestrated event and travesty. So it may not be about if Cotto will walk through Foreman, it may be about other things.

Yup, at +3 I think the under is worth a pittance here. I could see a cut, or certainly Wolak wearing Moore down.

Good luck Matt! I've got really similar wagers.

Cotto-Foreman

Cotto-Foreman

Draw definitely is a live wager here. Why not? Saves face for Cotto and gives the rabbi his much needed exposure. Me likey.
