    Reds_Fan Boxing Picks

    I am really starting to get into boxing. I watched Friday night fights and the HBO special last weekend and was able to pick the right winner in every single one of them except one. That one was the Lara fight, I picked an upset Lara and it going twelve round. I am sick to my stomach, but what can you do?

    I am very new to boxing, be warned that I do not pretend to be an expert. What I do is basically pick a fight that I can watch, research the hell out of it, see what the odds are and finally make a decision. Follow cautiously and fade even more cautiously.

    My first pick will be around the corner, lets do this thing!

    you cant parlay KO by the winner, and then parlay it with the winner. No bookie would ever survive in such a market. Would have been sweet tho.

    yeah, I did not think so, I came back to ask if I could do that because Bodog won't let me. Let me recalculate and get another write up.

    I am not betting so much on Tarver as I am going to bet against Green. Maybe I am wrong and he knocks him out in the first, but maybe I'm right and we can win a little money.

    Tarver to beat Green 1 unit to win 2.5 units
    Tarver vs. Green Under 11.5 rounds 2 units to win 3.50

    Two bets, as long as Green does not win by decision I will be good.

    If you think Tarver wins that is a very good bet.

    You might just wanna stick with the under though, and bet Green by Decision to back it up.

    Tarver, IMO, has very little chance of winning the fight. Too old, too slow, and way to lathargic to win a decision at his age.

    I like Green by stoppage late in the fight

    Hey Kball, sorry for the super late response.

    I hope you are wrong, and that Tarver can knock out Green, but if Green wins by stoppage I would be fine by that. I really do think Tarver will come away with the victory, I have now deposited my bet and can not wait until the fight...which will occur in the middle of the night.

    Either way I win, but yes, yes I do. I don't think cook will go down though, probably TKO.

    myp2p.eu is always another option but yeah not as easy as it used to be! U know atdhe is still going but as atdhenet.tv ? They only seem to have soccer tho.

    Im still waiting for 5dimes/sportbet to release props for Theophane/Cook, they're taking the piss, fight will have started by time they do it!

    I dont know anything about Jason Cook and very little of Theophane so I wont comment.

    Chisora over Fury is a good bet but Fury is just so huge by comparison so idk.

    But hey, you picked Tarver correctly and that one shocked me, so maybe you'll get both

    For the Khan fight I got "Leader after round 3 wins fight" at -140 but it has moved. Check your books. If fight does not start rnd. 4 it is a push. I think this turns into a straight bet on Khan a lot of the time given the line on the points handicap.

    hmmmmm, I am thinking about putting something down on this fight. It is just the matter of how much which will depend on if I win my current bets. I am excited for it though, when does HBO start it's coverage (My guide is not working at the moment).

    Wanted to play Chisora but got a feeling that Fury might steal a decision from sitting behind his jab
