NSB PICK EM 2023 #2 - #3 : SATURDAY 21st JANUARY 2023

[NC Uppercut]

I put it in writing in my pick post. Should’ve gone with my heart and picked Smith. No way, no how would I have expected, or picked, an early KO though. Good fight. Should’ve been stopped after the first knock down truthfully.
I don’t think anyone, just by glancing, picked Beefy.

Match-fixing? Just wondering out loud.

The Powers That Be made big bucks without moving a muscle?

Even the Brits last night ( who convinced me to change pick ) were telling me that Beefy had no power
Fugh me he didn’t lol
Eubank got what he deserved so might of picked wrong but the guy I wanted to win did

[Tatabanya]

Had bet on Essuman and Eubank in a parlay. Lost money again. Fùck it forever and ever.

[MulaKO]

Fùck it forever and ever.

You’ll be back with a ghoulish laugh

One thing that no one of us seemed to have considered was Eubank boiling himself down for the Benn fight. With RJJ in his corner, who was a victim of this very move when he faced Tarver after coming down from HW, I should have taken into acount that Eubank's punch resistance could have gone, and indeed so it was.

Tell you what T , all week I was leaning towards Beefy
I contradicted myself and last night decided to scratch the fughin surface with a few blokes from across the pond
Of course , I have mentioned this to you before , the minute someone gets in your ear you begin to doubt yourself , and I always go with my first instinct , learned to not bet with my heart
So , three four Brits told me Beefy had no power whatsoever , especially not enough to keep Eubank off of him
That he would never win a decision outright
He was shopworn
So you get the idea but what most got me debating was not one of them picked Beefy
Voila my change of heart and you saw what happened
I always thought Jr was going through the motions with help of his name and all
The one thing I should of noticed and taken into account was , with all the trash talk and Beefy not being at his level , why hire RJJ ?
We live and learn everyday

I never rated Eubank Jr, but for some reason I deemed Liam Smith on his way to Shotville. Never, ever thought he could knock Eubank out, though I could imagine a points win for him in a remote chance...

Fact is: from next weekend, I'm back to betting for the bigger money. Reason almost never applies when Tatabanya is involved
