Boxing 8/4 - 8/7

[gardenweasel]

liked kyowa alot...as box knows....

i wish i had seen him at +170......

the over was nice also....

he was the superior talent here....

looks like the books took a shot in the ass,based on the line movement...

I had Kyowa as well but keep in mind the guy had a very serious arm injury that made him quit against Bustos. His arm was literally just hanging there and he had no choice but to quit because he couldn't defend himself. Some guys never fully recover from something like that.

 

[gardenweasel]

good point...that`s always a possibility...we were aware of the injury...

but,the + odds with kyowa were just to good not to play...

 

[armageto]

Nothing to do with this week at all, but does anyone else like the over for Cotto/Branco at 9.5 rounds at +150? It seems from what I've Branco is durable enough to hang in there for the duration of the fight. Also, I think the Rahman/Barrett over is feasible as well. I like Barrett's chances at a decision, but King may push for Rahman to win it, bearing that he has a better chance on beating V.K. I also think the Peter/Wlad fight at plus money at 7.5 holds some value as well. Just wanted to share......

I took the opener so I know that Plus I have seen how good of a fighter Kyowa is but in his fight with Bustos his arm was just dangling there. He couldn't defend himself at all. I wouldn't recommend what Kyowa did to other fighters. It's much smarter to take a tune up or 2 after such a severe injury. Anyways, if you took him congrats.

where is that cotto line at?

 

[armageto]

That's what it opened up at sportsbook.com. I haven't checked it out since, but I would imagine it's about the same.......

 

[MayorgaFan]

thanks

 

[armageto]

No problem, I just checked and it's currently at +145.....

 

[BOXLOCKS]

Reid inside distance is up to +950 :scared

 

[armageto]

Even thought I don't see it happening, I'd place a few bucks just for the chance of it. I would figure Reid to know that his only shot is to win by stoppage. If it goes to the cards, he would REALLY have to dominate for the win.......

 

[BOXLOCKS]

Hell, who cares about Lacy-Reid, the Castillo-Corrales replay already stole the show...WOW

After watching this again, if the books are giving me Castillo +133 and the under 9.5 at +135...I'll take 'em both.

 

[BOXLOCKS]

Btw...geto

I already played the Cotto-Branco under 7.5 at +165 small...the + money looked good and Cotto will dominate.

Reid's eyebrow is starting to freak me out

 

[BOXLOCKS]

They're fighting Reid's fight and the crowd is out of it right now.

Lots of headbutts

 

[gardenweasel]

i hope that`s not reid`s fight.... :clap: :clap:

lacy...to young...to strong...

 

[BOXLOCKS]

i hope that`s not reid`s fight....

They were fighting Reid's fight in the first two rounds, which is when I posted. Things changed in the 3rd

I put a little on Reid inside distance at +950 and a little more on the under 11.5 at +120

Congrats to all Lacy backers

 

[THE KOD]

I played Lacy by KO,TKO, DQ after seeing him before the fight.

Lacy is a strong fighter, good fight, Reid could have been seriously hurt if it had gone on. Man alot of dirty punchs and butts, low blows, pretty much had it all.

This Joe Cabbilzaggy better be ready when Lacy gets to Wales. I would like to see his fight in Sept . Who is Joe fighting ? anyone that will test him ?

 

[armageto]

Lacy wins in a horrid beating. I don't think Reid thought Lacy hit like that. A ?? knockdown, but it made no difference. Won some of the TKO, but earlier than I thought........

 

[armageto]

Btw...geto

I already played the Cotto-Branco under 7.5 at +165 small...the + money looked good and Cotto will dominate.

Good luck to you there, but I think Cotto ending it in 6 or less doesn't seem to happen. You never know though......
