Napes Boxing Thread

[Napes21]

Anyone have any thoughts for Donaire v. Walters this weekend? I've seen a lot of Donaire's fights and while I understand he hasn't really looked the same since getting Mayweathered by Rigondeaux (albeit getting the KO against Darchinyan and beating Vetyeka) I was surprised to see him open as the dog against Walters just on name recognition. The only Walters fight I've seen is the Darchinyan KO. Curious what the boxing fans on here think of this fight?

Finally a real thread

I think its worth taking a chance on Donaire. boxing puts a lot of credit on undefeated records, when they mainly only beat bums.

Guess there either isn't a lot of boxing love left or everyone else is in the same boat as me and has only seen Walters sparingly if at all. I have been waffling on how to bet this one if at all but am starting to agree that Donaire might be the right side, especially at plus odds. Donaire has at least been in with some talented dudes before and from the Darchinyan/Walters fight it seems like Walters has some power but not much in the way of footwork / movement / technical skills. Wouldn't recommend anyone tail as if I make the wager it will probably be on the smaller side. Will try and keep posting any thoughts on here and see if I can breathe any life back into a boxing discussion. Really hoping GGG does what he's supposed to on Saturday so that we get a GGG v. Canelo or Cotto fight.

yee seen Walters sparingly so cant comment really

[Sacrelicious]

They are both great at throwing hands.

This is a coin flip, I reckon.

[marzwoody]

Live bet the shit out of it

[marzwoody]

I have 5.4 units on Walters @ -120. Donaire has one foot out the door. Once a fighter starts talking about retirement he's only got a few fights left in him. Should be a fun fight to watch though.

GL Ron. don't lose too much air.

Thinking about taking a small stab at GGG in rounds 7-9 @ +300

[Ron_Paul_2012]

Thinking about taking a small stab at GGG in rounds 7-9 @ +300

7-9 @ +320 & 10-12 @ +629. GGG said he wants to get some rounds in. So don't be surprised if the fight goes to the 10th round. So you're not taking Rubio like all the donks who were shuckin' & jivin' in my GGG thread? You're not going to take the big + money so that if Rubio actually wins you can say how smart you are like Nunya? So you don't feel guilty about betting on GGG even though he is white? Well then you must be racist!

^How you fit so many idiotic statements into one post is actually mindboggling, impressive even. You're almost so insanely idiotic that you turned the world on it's head, and became intelligent. But alas, you just remain the sad old running joke of this board, Chalkpaul.

SBR with no Ron_Paul is a lot more pleasant and a lot less petty, I find.

[NunyaBidness]

7-9 @ +320 & 10-12 @ +629

You penetrating moron, as much as you hang out in a gambling forum, you think you'd pick up SOMETHING by osmosis. You can get 7-12 at +188.

When you buy the cat food that you eat for dinner every night, and the cashier rings it up at 19 cents per can, do you demand to pay 25 cents?

If you're going to make bad bets, at least make the least bad, bad bet.

Alas your buffoonery rears it's ugly pea brained little head. You can continue to shuck. You can continue to jive. But the bottom line is that GGG is going to win inside the distance. The bottom line is that my GGG Itd play is going to cash. The bottom line is that I will win & if you bet against me then you will lose. Well I now consider this matter settled. Thank you for playing.

Serious question. How do you work out the odds for the two combined?

[NunyaBidness]

Fastest way to do it is use the arb calculator here:

http://www.sportsbookreview.com/betting-tools/arbitrage-calculator/

Enter the prices, and adjust the bet #1 amount until Total Bet = $100, then $ Profit is equivalent to your ML Price of the combined bet, works for more than 2 combinations as well.

I had the same idea as Napes21 thinking that the fight would most likely end between rounds 7-9. So a bet was placed @ +320. However, later on I came across a couple of interviews of Golovkin saying that his fights were ending too soon & that he wanted extra rounds. He even said something like he would not mind a decision victory against Rubio. So then I placed another bet @ +629 for the fight to end between rounds 10-12. Now if the fight ends between rounds 7-9 I will have indeed lost some money compared to if I would have just used the money to place one larger bet @+188 for rds. 7-12. Bravo. You have a real knack for the obvious. However, if GGG was serious in his desire for more rounds than usual & my +629 bet cashes well then phooey on you-ee.

Once again you miss the point, no surprise here. Nobody said anything about GGG not winning ITD. Ever. The stuff about racism was just a headscratcher.

Now see if you can figure out why we made fun of you, all by your self.

Chuckle. No son. You missed the point. Indeed your comment in my GGG post was a real head scratcher. You said that the post had racist connotations. You sound like a brain washed left wing nut jobber. Aren't you that skinny little punk kid from Australia? Someone posted your ugly little face on here a while back unless I have you mistaken for another poster. As far as you & the voices in your head making fun of me. Um.... I'm still waiting for anyone to make fun of me. No one has done anything other than flap their gums & give me more ammo to shoot right back at them. The only fun that's going on is me having fun literally laughing out loud at your dumb ass. SBR is a tremendous stress reliever for me. It's therapeutic. I thoroughly enjoy sticking my finger in the eye of stupidity. Sorry if you can no longer see. Oh. And once again. Thank you for playing.

Poor napes, someone keeps taking dump after steamy dump in his thread.

Rubio in the ring with Alvarez from Sons of Anarchy - LMAO

[Napes21]

That didn't take very long - bring on Cotto or Canelo - GGG needs some real challenges

[MD]

I don't think that Canelo is any sort of challenge for GGG. GGG -800.

[Napes21]

I don't think that Canelo is any sort of challenge for GGG. GGG -800.

I should have used "names" instead of "challenges" - but I think that fight would be more competitive than that

Canelo would wreck GGG.

Boxing getting interesting.

Kovalev v. Hopkins. Time for the old man to get put to pasture.

[marzwoody]

Value on Hopkins

[Ron_Paul_2012]

Value on Hopkins

Wrong again! Value on Hopkins via decision. Do you really think B-Hop is going to KO Kovalev?!

[Napes21]

Value on Hopkins

Seeing a lot of love for Hopkins around. Making me think twice about how I want to play this one. Personally think Kovalev could/will be the first to finish him. But I suppose if Bernard does his usual he could work a decision. Should be interesting.

Where did i write KO? you losing your eye sight old timer?
