hatton to ko rios in latter rounds (win ko 9th)

pacheco ud over kelly (win 7th round stoppage)

williamson and the fight under 7 parlay ( oops lose well was worth the 4-1 gamble anyway. hey who switched my pick from mesi to williamson??? lol just kidding.)



8-1 last two threads losing the underdog parlay with sillyson.





still looking at the mesi -williamson fight. seem to be talking myself one way then the other and then back. i think it will end early but under 7 ??? don't know maybe maybe not. perhaps rounds 8-10. :shrug:

you know....

you know....

football......hurricanes.....the usual stuff .....

saw something interesting on the oly and pinnacle boards...stevie forbes started out at oly at +125.......he`s now,i believe a -128 favorite......that`s a quick jump....the o/u is -200 and rightly so...barring a cut,this should go the distance....-200 at oly.....if stevie is the play,then the over has to be the play because forbes doesn`t stop people....particularly tough guys like hernandez.....

this is in l.a....hernandez` home turf.....should be a great fight.....

b.l. has resto over undefeated k.o. artist maussa.....some think resto is a better prospect than miguel cotto....that`s high praise indeed.....was -260....now -265....this will be more costly in a couple days.......

some good stuff in the next couple weeks.....go get `em...

thanks for the input. i was indeed leaning to forbes and he is hardly a knockout guy at all. so if forbes is the man so is the over. i agree. didn't look though and wasn't aware of the quick jump in odds. wow

GW-Oly actually opened Forbes -130. Pinnacle had opened the 1st number on this fight with Carlos Hernandez the fav at -130 I beleive. We wanted to write as much Hernandez as possible and are accomplishing that mission. Good luck guys. Can you spell DRAW?
LOL.

joey

joey

i would swear that hernandez opened at oly as the favorite....unless i`m strokin` out....

are you b.s.`in me?.....because i`m goin` to the doctor if you are seriously telling me forbes opened as the fave.....i`m positive you opened it at hernandez as the fave...i`m gonna have to start priting these odds out so i know i`m not crazy....maybe i was thinkin` pinnacle....they put the first line out on this,didn`t they?....

forget it...i just reread your post......pinnacle did open this first....maybe that`s what stuck in my mind....

btw

joey....as i mull this over in my little brain,i see that you are gonna write hernandez.......with hernandez the favorite at pinnacle and 5 dimes........why would anybody buy forbes at oly?.....

i don`t recall seeing you guys open different favorites before.....although i`m sure it`s happened......

my email is available if`s theres anything you need to get off your chest .....nice to hear from you again....

think i'll go with the upset and try to make some profit for not much wager by parlaying williamson with the fight going under 7. gl to all. i can't get into olyp right now but will check later to see if williamson by ko is an option and which way is the most profitable to go. anyway going with the touch of sleep to put mesi beddy bye before the final bell. again only cause the local will let me parlay the two and i will make a fair profit if the upset comes through.

going with williamson and the fight under 7 rounds. doing this as a value wager as mesi is indeed the favorite and fighting in his hometown of buffalo. if the fight goes to the cards and the judges want to get out of town alive mesi better win.
