    And what if you bet $40 on both fighters at those odds. What would you get back. If you can please answer that I will understand it much better. Thanks for the reply.

    .
    If you bet $100 on Spence at -220 odds win $45.45 (plus your money back).


    40 bucks on Spence earns you 18 dollars plus your money back.

    40 bucks on Brook gets you 72 dollars and your money back.

    Idk if it makes sense really, the best way to grasp it is to browse some betting sites and put money into the odds to see how much you'd make.

    A good example is if you put $100 down on the draw at +2000 you'd win $2000 plus your hundred back if it happens.

      too many question marks to back Brook or Spence, but I will put some money that it wont go the distance at 1.72x.

      Factors:

      - Spence supposed to be a hard hitter, throws combos and breaks opponents down
      - Brook suffered a fractured orbital bone, so that will maybe be an issue
      - Brook had to go back two weight classes again, if Im believing Roy Jones Jr., this will affect his ability to take a punch
      - Spence hasnt fought against someone who can fight back and has no head movement

      The only way it wont happen, if Brook applies a touch and clinch, Hopkins-strategy.

        These odds are confusing me. On my bettingsite I have the option to get decimal numbers displayed. Thats the most easiest way for me.

            Spence
            Chudinov
            Allen

            I think Brook's career may have passed him by, which is a shame as I think he is perhaps my favourite British fighters and idiots here will claim he was never all that.

            I fear Groves won't be the same after his last fight. He's a smart (for a boxer) guy and think he won't be able to empty his head, of that and world champion plight.

            Allen as he needs a win badly to keep relevant.

              I was looking at a double : Brook stoppage and neither fighter to be knocked down in the Groves fight. 6.64/1 on Sky Bet.

                  Yeah i hear you mate. It frustrating to get a few bets right in an accumulator then fall at the last hurdle.

                    I'm planning a long game competition with a friend.
                    Going to start collecting some data on starting prices and outcomes. As I'm a data geek.

                    I've felt for a long time draws happen more regularly than the odds suggest, meaning there is good value but have no evidence.

                      I initially thought

                      chudinov
                      Brook double

                      but no way chudinov win's on the cards, he would have to get like 4 KD's to even get a SD.
                      The only way he win's is by stopping groves after he gasses late on.
                      Which is the 2nd most likely outcome after groves via robbery on the scorecards.

                      Brook
                      Chudinov KO

                      16/1

                      + Andrew selby points

                      31/1
