Ladbrokes have lines up for burns undercard sat and bellew undercard sunday. All this then ufc right after bellew. This will hopefully be a huge weekend for me.

According to what I just read online Ruenroeng pretty clearly won the first three rounds before getting caught with a punch to the chin coming in & hurt during the fourth and then knocked down & out with a vicious body shot. I almost went with the dog just from reading about the first fight and the plans for the rematch in China. Then when I actually watched the whole bout yesterday I switched. Maybe I should stick with half-assed BoxRec capping instead of video!

I watched the fight in the stadium. Ruenroeng missed 7 pounds at weigh-ins. He was a little weak during the fight.
 
A prospective Joseph Parker-Anthony Joshua fight is 9/1 +900 Parker with Victor and Paddy, 10/1 +1000 with Sky. I don't think the fight happens this year so your stake is likely to get refunded at the end of the year but had to take some action, crazy odds.

It could couldnt it isnt parker no 1 contender for his belt?
 
Maybe, I thought Parker had to fight Pulev? If Eddie Hearn wants the fight this year, he could probably get the IBF to accelerate Parker.
 
Is it crazy to think that 44 year old Shane Mosley could beat David Avenesyan this Saturday in their WBA welterweight interim title fight? The latter doesn't seem to be a huge puncher or have beaten any real names. May be some value even on this version of Sugar Shane at +245?

I haven't got time to watch it all just saw KO nasty uppercut. Is Mchunu any good? Took Mak until r11. Mak decision is +400...
 
Small bet Conor Benn to win on points versus Luke Keleher at 4/1 +400. Keleher never stopped, Benn only 19, hard to know if he's all that really. Also took the draw 28/1 +2800 because it's only 4 rounds.
 
We won't get any props on the U.S. friendly books for an undercard fight like Benn/Keleher but I tailed you on the draw prop for ~$12, only +1700 on the exchange though. No Benn wins by points market available right now unfortunately.
 
Like look of McCarthy Nurse and Burns by dec albeit Nurse and Burns priced accordingly. Benn dec definitely worth a flyer as only 4 rounds.

Ladbrokes enhanced special McCarthy Nurse and Burns by dec +800. Definitely worth £50.
 
A double sawbuck on the 37 year old journeyman to upset a heavyweight prospect tonight on CBS SN. Probably throwing money away, but they both have a fair amount of KOs so anything can happen I suppose. I missed playing a +1000 heavyweight underdog on FS1 last week who cashed.

Nick Guivas (+5000) vs Jarrell Miller $20.00 for $1,000.00
 
Took a stab at Bone over Vazquez +180. Pissed I missed the opener at +280 that was a really good line imo. Not crazy about 180 but will add a bit more if the line jumps back up a bit. Vazquez looked pretty terrible against Mendez last time out, Bone younger and has a good skillset. Vazquez tends to be in close fights and tough rds to score even if most people think he won (e.g. Bey and Mendez). Don't like my price but still think there's a little value there. Hoping the line pops back up so I can put something decent on it, would've been all over him at ~3-1.

Isn't Bone coming down in weight too while Vazquez going up to 140? i agree +280 was a good line, let's see if it goes back up a bit.

Yeah Vazquez was a longtime 135'er, Bone's a ww. Vazquez and Bone came in at 143.6 and 144, respectively. Vazquez is a tall guy but Bone naturally bigger. Vazquez wasn't a puncher at 135 so I assume his power will be even less at the higher weight, as well. He doesn't really rely on his power though so it might not matter at the end of the day.

Still like Bone here even at a relatively shitty price compared to what we could've gotten. Vazquez has a pretty ugly style and judges have a hard time scoring rds b/c of it. Like with Mendez and Bey, a lot of people could think he wins this but the judges will have him losing it. He's got an ugly, boring style that's been effective but tends to make rds/fights closer than they maybe should be.
 
I put something on it now in case it doesn't go up: Erick Bone (+180) vs Miguel Vazquez $55.56 for $100.00

That's what I did, too, to make sure I had room incase his line improved. Even if the line stays static I think the juice will lighten a bit tomorrow. Bone's already dropped a dollar, hopefully he doesn't drop more.
