    Zab did win the fight though, lol but I am sure anyone with money on him certainly didn't feel safe until they raised Zab's hand.

          I knew Vernon was going to win the fight(check the other thread). For a dude that hasn't done too much he has a lot of doubters. No one was really picking him.

            Zab is full of dissapointing performances, not the least of which happened last weekend. He is a fighter that has always seemed capable of some much more then he has accomplished. PLENTY of boxing experts see that in him. There were even a bunch of Experts that gave him a pretty good chance of upsetting Khan.

            Mathysse is a bad fighter technically. Was I so so wrong to think that a much more Technical sound fighter that punches HARD and is brilliantly fast would make mince meat out the slower, MUUUUUUUCH less experienced Mathysse?

            I can pull up dozens of Experts and Handicappers that had very much the same assessment of the fight, most noteably the fightwriter himself whos opinion i hold in very high esteem.

            I still won the bet, which at the end of the day is all that matters.

            I still hold the opinion that Lucas Mathysse (as much as i love him from interviews and such and as much as I'm now pulling for the guy because of his run of bad luck) is an incredibly flawed fighter that will be battered by any of the divisions elite.

            I held the FALSE notion that Judah had a lot left to give, when in reality his career as an elite fighter ended when he left the ring after 11 rounds with Miguel Cotto.

            I was WRONG. I am sooooooo sorry that I predicted a fight incorrectly. I work very hard when I analyze these fights and when I feel like I have a good one I get very passionate about it.

            You're talking to a guy that turned 50 bucks in 1 account on bookmaker.com into SEVERAL thousand spread out on 3 different accounts on different websites

            You should DREAM of such gambling success. I am RARELY wrong and I have the track record to prove it.

              I posted in that thread I said Zab was a good bet, that fight led me to believe Matthysse was a real fighter though~ I put money on Zab to beat Khan but I was playing with money I was up, a small percentage on a whim heat check really.

              And looking back at that thread I got in trouble because I went away from what I thought was going to happen, if Zab wasn't facing a guy with a suspect chin I wouldn't have done that. The worst part about it was I knew I was going against my original thesis for Zab and really knew I was pressing it one fight to far.

              It happens whatever

                I'm talking to a guy that showed up after the fight was OVER to declare that he picked the winner.

                I'm talking to a guy that logs into SBR to to ask everyone's opinion on fights, before he makes his decision (that's right, bitch, I read that site, too).

                I'm talking to a guy that needs everyone else's opinion, before giving his own opinion. And even then, he waits until after the fight is over, to announce that he's a winner.

                I'm talking to a guy who picked Katsidis over Guerrero, Williams over Martinez, Pascal over Hopkins, Maidana by "KO within 6 rounds" over Morales. Then brags about how he's never wrong.

                You, however, are talking to a guy who has over 1k in a paypal account, that was donated by OTHER people, as a show of gratitude for following picks that he gave out (not even counting the money I have spread out on sportsbooks).

                Also, a guy who has his own site (paid for by the lovely people who coat tail my boxing picks).

                You should DREAM to have such success. "Call me Sunday.. I'll give ya Saturday's winners". Monday morning QB'ing loser.

                I get some right. I get some wrong. But one thing's for certain. I have them posted BEFORE the fight starts. Damn shame you can't say the same.

                      I ask for peoples opinions on THIS site as well. After EVERY post I say "Thoughts?"

                      I would be an ABSOLUTE MORON to assume I know all the information at all times.

                      I pick as many minds as I possibly Can. I read as many previews and watch as many videos on fights as I can.

                      I'm EXTREMELY honest and open with my opinions on fights. I do this for the sole purpose of having someone else call me out before the fight and explain why I am wrong.

                      I have learned an incredible amount about betting on boxing from the guys here and from SBR.

                      The results speak for themselves. The picks you mentioned? I did NOT place a bet on Maidana over Morales, I did NOT place a bet on Williams over Martinez (As a matter of fact, I picked Martinez over Williams in the first fight when he was about a +400 dog as I recall. Also, I posted this in that SBR thread if you wanted proof "Final Prediction: Williams by Decision at +200. I probably WONT bet it though. To close of a call"). I placed a VERY small bet on Katsidis over Guerrero because I thought the bet had value. I lost virtually nothing.

                      I very frequently make picks that I don't bet on if I dont actually think there's a clear a choice or if I don't believe one of the options has value. I give up analyzing the fight when i realize its pointless, so a lot of picks of over the top or from out of no where.

                      My results speak for themselves. I've made a pretty substantial amount of money from practically nothing over the last few years, and this is from betting almost never over 100 bucks. Do you know how ridiculous your win precentage has to be to make that much money? I'm AT LEAST 75% on my 5dimes account, and thats pretty ****in impressive if I can say so myself.

                      Idk what I'm trying to prove to you right now and I shouldnt have to prove anything. I made a very innocent post about Vernon Paris, with none of these ulterior motives that your suggesting.
