Boxing Discussion VIII

What about Usyk by decision (+260)?

Usyk by unanimous decision is +333.

I think those are juicy. Usyk isn’t a KO artist and Dubois is much bigger.

usyk points is a good play considering the price

only reservation from me is dubois will be coming to fight which could lead to him being stopped late
 
Damn. Perhaps a minor hedge with Usyk Rounds 7-12.
I was thinking this as well, but the rounds 9-12 (either fighter +300).

I’ll probably add that to some small parlays and hope that it is still alive come the Usyk fight.
 
Nikita Tszyu by decision is +250.
All I know is that his opponent has a good chin and it is only a 8 round fight.
I made this parlay ending in the Round 9-12 fight ends in the Usyk fight.

I just backed him straight at 2.90

Betfair has Brubaker at 20/1 atm. Obviously unlikely to win but sprinkled as that's ridiculous
 
The main event odds seem way too wide for mine, it was a little over a year ago Ben Horn was having moments against Nikita
 
£250 Usyk decision +320 to win £800 + £20 free bet +275 (£655 profit)
£200 Usyk rds 7-12 +250 to win £500 (£250 profit)


I think too much is being made over Dubois's last fight where he got hit funny on the top of the head. A few facts to consider:
  • Usyk's last 12 fights have been won in rd 7 onwards. Only 1 fight in his last 16 ended before rd 7.
  • 5 of last 7 went to decision. 3-1 at HW with his one KO being over a Weatherspoon who was on the brink of retirement.
Usyk is a boxer who will gradually take over to overwhelm fighters as the fight progresses, he's isn't winning fights by flush KO. If he finishes Dubois it will likely be from his corner throwing in the towel or the ref waving it off late in the fight.

*Debating wether to add £50 extra to the rds 7-12 at +225

Those are really good odds that you are getting. What book are they from?

When there isn’t much difference between Usyk Rounds 7-12 (+175 on bet365) and Fight Ends 7-12 (+160 on bet365), then I always go with the latter. It covers if Dubios lands his lucky punch in those rounds.

Good luck!

Thanks. Yeah smart, with those odds I would do the same.

Betfair, Sky sports had the 7-12 at +250 (UK) but shortened now. William Hill still has it at +225 here.

*added another half a unit on each

Looking over the lines somehow Efe Ajagba has worked up to a +150 dog against Zhan Kossobutskiy tomorrow. Good value on first glance, I need to study it a bit more.
