All under dogs

I really like this . . . All of these "dogs" have a good chance of winning.

Also a big Thanks to B-Hop for putting a little cash in the pocket for me.

Cong**** again... Im happy with Purdy win and Barker win but pissed i second guessed the B-Hop pick

Thanks. I don't blame anyone for being gun shy on B-Hop. There were some question marks going into the fight. Hopkins answered those questions, though. You were right to be cautious, imo.

Me? I bet Hopkins. Then I got inside my own head, and talked myself into believing he was going to lose. So then I bought out of it, and bet Cloud, lol.

I thought Burns/Vazquez got pushed back? 5dimes still has it listed as next weekend.

The fight has definitely been pushed back, of the top of my head it's sheduled for April 20th. Theres huge problems with the fight though with Burns trying to escape Warren, and Warren claiming they still have to fight Vasquez. Will almost certainly get ugly.

For starters, I don't care how much bigger Fury is, he has no business as a -600 favorite. And I will be on Cunningham +400, if for nothing more than what I believe is pure value.

That Bradley line is on the move. I think if you can still find him at an offshore book around -550, it's a good bet. Don't be afraid of a little chalk, when there's virtually 0 chance that he loses. No laying -800, though. Just play the decision prop.

I will 100% be on Froch to beat Kessler. I'm gonna wait around and hope that it moves down a little, but if waiting around costs me, I'll probably play Froch at anything -230ish or better. At first glance, I like the OVER 11.5 at -175 here, too. But I'm a little worried that Kessler's cut opens back up, and it gets stopped.

Share some thoughts, friends.

I went with my insticts when I lost £800 ($1194) on Burns-Mitchell (6 rounds or over)

Oh damn. That fight did have big odds on it going over 6 and very few people expected that KO. I fell like i regret it more if i dont bet and am right then if i bet and lose, thats just me

I lost my biggest bet, like $200 on a Canelo UD against Rhodes. The damn ref stopped it with a min left I would have won more then a grand
