    I like him and he's one of the most unbiased and knowledgeable people out there. And he tends to go for the underdog for obvious reasons. In this case, there is a small but negligible chance for an upset, so I don't see anything wrong there, it's consistent with what he always been about.

      He will always pick a heavy underdog and hedge it with the most likely outcome. He is also very high on Mikey. So if Mikey pulls off the miracle and wins, he cleans up. If the hedge wins he will break even, or win or lose a little.

      He sometimes gets a fixation on strange fighters though. At one time he considered Mundine and Degale almost unbeatable. Damn Mundine was still on his p4p list well after he was already washed up LOL.
      Yea, this seems to be spot on.

        I’m paraphrasing:
        Dwyer: Spence is sometimes too anxious to land his shots so he can run across the ring and say Mandown. Don't be surprised if Errol Spence gets KO'd. If this fight is announced, I will bet early and take the underdog, the better boxer with the straighter punches Mikey Garcia to win the fight straddled with Errol Spence by stoppage.

        Is Dwyer on crack?
        He's got a terrible track record and this has been years and years and years with the same crap.

        His straddle is he's hedging a bet which is super amateur because you're always losing money. He's teaching fools how to lose.

          I like Dwyer but he tends to put too much stock into fighters he deems skilled. He doesn't account for the toughness and dog some fighters have.

            He picked Fury over Wladimir so he knows his stuff.

              Someone on here (was it Dan Cov?) kept track of all his picks for a while and showed the results you'd get from copying his picks. It was a loss over and over again. He does make good points sometimes, he's one of the better boxing guys on youtube but his actual betting choices are wrong too often.

                Yeah exactly. It's a shame we can't bet on what Dwyer picks will be as 100% he'll say go with Wilder KO straddled with Fury decision.

                    I like his breakdowns, he makes a lot of good points and obviously knows his boxing history...... I just wouldn't take his picks seriously as he really goes out of his way to look for weak points in the betting favourite...... I'm sure he has a point with Garcia/Spence, regarding their ability and styles.

                      You can disagree qith him, you know that right?
                      you dont need to call him a crack consumer for telling something you dont like

                      I like his videos, I disagree with him on a 50% basis but he at least tries to make a breakdown of a fight, not only say" he is good he is gonna win".
