    Think that I had it exactly like you in my bet, then changed it at the last minute to throw away my money on a fùcking draw...

      Mula is not posting anywhere anymore, just hope he's OK besides all kidding. Actually he's not new to long disappearances, if I remember correctly.

        Magsayo sucks but I knew his youthful energy would allow him to survive.
        I won on the moneyline. Cong****.

          Lets hope so - if you read this Mula - chin up and people thinking of you - can't be bad eh?

            Garcia-Vidal had close odds.

            Why wasn't it included in the pick 'em?

              Figueroa can't lay to rest a dead Magsayo in the 10th, thus my six tenners (including one on a draw) go down the toilet. Ohara Davies finds a pulse for the first time in his life when I (and other companions, I see...) decide to throw a x5 on the home fighter. Fùck it. At least Davies won by KO, so I was not overtaken yet and I'm still 5th, with a few rabid dogs around...
              Nice write-up - and happy birthday - wait to you hit the big 60. I just ignored it - which was easy as were in lockdown.

              Has anyone ever done a study on how often draws come up? Is it like one in 500 fights, one in 200, one in 1000? There are hundreds of fights around the world every week - see Boxrec schedule - i'm pretty sure draws are not once per week.
              Maybe draws happen more in big fights than smaller importance fights. Maybe more in Las Vegas than any other city? Maybe more when a box office attraction is in tough - think Canelo?

                It happens to us all but more importantly, happy birthday my man. Wishing you the best of health!

                  To be honest I was not familiar with them - mea maxima culpa - otherwise I would have suggested it. Great fight, for the little it lasted.

                    Pick 'em refer to odds like those.

                      what fights are schedule for next week's pick 'em?

                      The closest I see are: Mickey Ellison-Thomas Whitaker Hart and Tszyu-Harrison.
