Napes Boxing Thread

[Vaughany]

Yes tko'd in the fourth. He considered retiring but then has won by tko twice this year against corbin and valorri. He beat bellew before by MD. I think value is with bellew by dec in this one tho

[Vaughany]

George groves rebound fight is tonight as well. Also james degale fighting

oh and callum smith....big prospect

[Napes21]

I was gonna bet big on Demarco but the news about his 13 year old sister having cancer is pulling me off quite a bit. Im still doing it tho but way smaller.
Ill send you a pm in the morning with more info amigo

Thanks bro

[Napes21]

No chat about bellew vs cleverley ...big one tonight, got a lot of interest over here due to the mutual hatred for one another! Streamin tht shiit for sure

Difficult to follow the Euro boxing stateside (at least for me) since they rarely broadcast the fights. If I can't get it on my DVR I'm not going to end up watching something. This fight will be broadcast here though so I'll be watching.

[marzwoody]

Manny P is fighting tomorrow.

[Vaughany]

James degale beat the chubby chump he was fighting. Groves is up now against a guy with his mum in his corner! Degale and groves had to be separated backstage yesterday, all kicked off ...family involved as well. Wpuldnt be surprised if they do another fight between them

great call V! sprinkled a little bit on this based on your comment

[Vaughany]

ha yeah, nice that I at least hit something other than Handsome Wiman this wknd!

the scoring was a joke tho, he won about 9 of the rounds yet was a split!

[fitguy67]

agree with you on that V...problem with damn-near all combat sports' judging is the fact that 10-10s are not allowed...so the blind bastids are forced into guessing...allowing the 10-10 (essentially "i pass on scoring this round" option for someone who couldn't discern a clear edge) would reduce the overall variance and reduce the incidence of scorecards ridiculously out of sync with the fight (aka. the unfunny jokes) that fighters/fans/bettors are forced to suffer

[Napes21]

V - any thoughts on the Fury/Chisora card this weekend? Was eyeballing the over in Chisora/Fury but outside of that I don't know the other guys. Lines are all rather tight compared to what you usually see in boxing these days.

I like the over as well. Would be interested at what the folks across the pond think.

[Vaughany]

depends on how seriously Chisora is taking it....guy is pretty much desperate for a pay cheque to cover all his debts from dodgy investments and other shady shiit. My initial instinct would be to play Fury TKO tho...but del boiii is quite durable so over 9.5 may be the smart play or fury by decision even also like Billy Joe to beat Eubank

Thanks Vaughany, you've seen much more of these guys, than we have back in the States.

[Vaughany]

I dont follow boxing scene anywhere near as much as i do mma tho, especially those bum heavyweights like chisora. No interest in tht

What are you talking about bro? Tyson Fury would destroy UFC's Cain. said so himself.

[mirinquads]

The only man who can defeat Tyson Fury, is Tyson Fury.

[Jim_Gunn]

I follow MMA a lot closer than boxing, but that said, I'm playing the same prop on Tyson Fury that I played on Manny in the Algieri fight recently. Tyson Fury has only won by KO/TKO or Unanimous Decision in his career, with no split decisions on his record. So this prop covers either a Fury KO or a Fury UD, and it's a lot cheaper than his moneyline near -300 right now.

Tyson Fury wins by KO (incl. TKO and DQ) or Unanimous Decision (-140) $140.00 to win $100.00

[mirinquads]

^Played that as well, but I don't think a Chisora KO is out of the question at all. Tyson Fury doesn't have a good chin, and Chrisora knows how to land power

[Jim_Gunn]

Sure, it's possible, that's why it's gambling. But Tyson has never been KO'ed and has indeed been knocked down early in a fight by Steve Cunningham and come back to win by KO in a later round. I love this prop with the KO + UD combined in general, especially when the price is less than half the price of the straight moneyline bet. Wish they offered it for MMA fights!

[Napes21]

Playing:
Chisora/Fury o8.5
Fury by KO or UD
Crawford by dec

[Jim_Gunn]

I added Crawford by UD at +105:

Terrance Crawford wins by Unanimous Decision (+105) $40.00 for $42.00

[Ron_Paul_2012]

You have the same plays as I. GL!

[Ron_Paul_2012]

Can someone please explain to me why Frank "The Bum" Buglioni is so popular in GB? Is he a former pro in another sport or an actor?

[marzwoody]

Chris Eubank jr fighting

[Vaughany]

Yei said furthher up i like billy joe to grind it out

[Napes21]

Somebody got a stream link? I don't do that often but this Chisora/Fury card isn't on tv stateside.

[Ron_Paul_2012]

Fury via U Dec or TKO @ -145 was too good to pass. Don't know why that line didn't get pounded. Eubanks @ +115 & Skeete @ +? (I think he was as high as +300) were 2 plays that I wish I would have pulled the trigger on. By the time I got around to doing the proper research on both fighters the lines changed. I believe at least one of those 2 live dogs will emerge victorious. GL to any of you who were able to get Skeete @ big plus money.

[Ron_Paul_2012]

I like Crawford @ -1100. The U dec prop @ +105 was also worth playing.

[marzwoody]

Watching this skeet fight. so boring.

[Ron_Paul_2012]

[QUOTE=marzwoody;23097363]Watching this skeet fight. so boring.[/QUOTEThis is the same weight class as Gayweather, Brook, Khan & Thurman. Just try to imagine how either of these 2 would do vs any of those gentlemen. I have a feeling Skeete will eventually challenge at the World level. Maybe in 1 or 2 years.

Considering they both look like amateur boxers i don't think they would do very well.

Put a few unitz down on Fury.

[Ron_Paul_2012]

Put a few unitz down on Fury.

Straight? @ what odds?

[Ron_Paul_2012]

Put a few unitz down on Fury.

Fury via U Dec or TKO @ -145 was the play son. But good luck just the same Marz.
