I checked Boxrec, and added a little .35u bet on Hovhannisyan also to win a little more than 1u to give me a reason to watch the Golden Boy card tomorrow evening.
 
Anything on the Showtime card this weekend, BT, with Lara vs Martirosyan or Jermall Charlo vs Austin Trout or Jermell Charlo vs John Jackson?

Not much of a lean on Lara/Vanes. Lara should win a Dec but odds are juiced too much for me to touch.

Probably some value in Trout at +450, he's a very good boxer and even though Jermall's got a lot of power Trout is a tough guy with good boxing acumen. Also liking fight goes distance -120. Trout isn't a big puncher, and like I said Jermall can hit hard but Trout's always game. Think this could end up being a pretty close Dec. Leans on Trout and fight goes distance imo.

Jermell is the better fighter overall of the twins, he's got pop but he's also got more of a boxer's mentality. His opponent John Jackson is the son of one of the hardest puncher's ever, Julian Jackson, and has got some of his dad's power. Andy Lee ko'd Jackson but Lee's got a lot of power and it's hard to tell if Charlo will take many chances against a guy he can probably just outbox for 12rds and not have to take many chances against. I could see some value in jermell itd but man I just don't know if he'll take many chances here. He does have the power to finish Jackson that's for sure, but he is a safer, more calculated fighter than his bro so he could just box his way to a Dec. Slight lean on Jermell itd or fight doesn't go distance b/c Jackson does have a lot of power in his own right, but not strong leans.

Hope that helps.
 
Thanks, BT. I bet 1.2 units to win 1u at -120 on Charlo/Trout goes distance and $50 on Trout at +450. Also just read the Bad Left Hook breakdown on the GBP card tomorrow. Apparently Hovhannisyan trains out of Glendale Fight Club? Confidence decrease.
 
No problem hope we come out alright. Lol yeah several Armenian fighters train out of that gym, Vic Darchinyan trained there too, along with a couple others, I'm pretty sure. Definitely not a confidence booster to say the least, lol.
 
To the Brit guys Parker Takam is on Sky Sports from 11am Saturday morning. This will be interesting I am looking after the kids on my own tomorrow ffs!!

Amazing you can watch it for free in UK (assume Sky is free?) Yet it is a PPV in Australia..

Sky isn't free i think Sky Sports is about £20 a month. However there are ways round that, so for someone like me it is free! ;)

20 a month isn't bad. The PPV will be $40 I assume. All ufc PPV are 50 too! Little wonder why so many stream everything
 
link to the art/Maldonado fight if anyone's interested. Starts at 10 est, I believe.

 
Takem all they way up to +470 on 5D added a bit more and "hedged" with Parker Dec +220 on a danish bookie
 
Went big on takam....im upset at my bellator bets and chasing.
 
So Art Hovhannisyan who I tailed BT on as a +310 dog on the Golden Boy card tonight ended up going the distance and pushing as a split draw. Another good dog play gone to waste! Kalenga, who Bruthead and I were earlier today, got knocked down early and finally in a brutal back and forth fight ended up TKOed in the 10th round by Dorticos. FYI, instead of that Estrella TV link in Spanish, you can watch the Golden Boy cards in English on RingTVLive.com.

We got screwed on Estrella tv again Jimmy. art won that fight. he got dropped late with a bodyshot but I thought he pretty clearly won most of the rds. First Kamegai as a 2-1 dog gets a draw on Estrella then Art gets fucked with a draw again. both against Spanish fighters....hmmm? Both fights were pretty close especially the Kamegai fight but pushes fucking suck. Art deserved it, especially as a 3-1 dog. Thanks for the ringtvlive link I'll check it out next time so I can actually understand what they're saying lol. My 10th grade level spanish is not doing me much good listening to Estrella commentary.

Also talked to my brother he likes Joseph Parker to stop Takam today. Played that for 1u. Takam is a pretty decent fighter but he's getting up there in mileage and age and Parker is young and hungry, much bigger guy. Tailing my brother on this but I took Parker itd -130.
 
I've been losing a lot of good dog bets on BS draws: Kamegai against Soto Karass on GBP as you said, Dallas Jr.against Harrison on BET, and now Hovhannisyan vs Maldonado Jr. on GBP, all just in the last five weeks. I didn't even mention Bute against DeGale, which probably wasn't deserved anyway.
