    I'm hearing Chavez is as high as a 5/1 favourite this weekend. Probably throw a couple hundred down on Rubio. Where should I do it?

    It's a tempting bet but the bout is in Texas. Rubio could win 10 rounds and not get the decision.

    Yeah that's the problem.

    And even though I think Rubio is going to be landing the cleaner shots, doing the best work, and deserve the decision, he can be a little negative, and Chavez will be just about busy enough to make a robbery possible.

    If it's a close fight surely Jr. will get the decision. Doesn't necessarily mean Rubio would be robbed though.

    As much as a protected hype job Jr. is, he's at least been throgh some adversity and has a number of rounds of experience under his belt. He's not a David Lemieux who thought he could walk over Rubio.

    I'm pretty sure Roach and Chavez Jr.'s management know this is a dangerous fight. I expect him to be well prepared.

    2/5 on Chavez by decision
    11/2 on Rubio by KO

    Plenty room to wiggle between those two

    Rubio needs a KO to get a draw.

    Why, because I wasn't interested in betting with some chode but I'm curious about how to place my first online wager on an underdog?

    I like this thread- I reckon there is $ to be made taking on the bookies, there are some great odds out there made by bookies who make mistakes, we know the game as good as anyone, I say we get us a proper boxing gambling thread.

    Get Jake, Reed, and the other ITK's in on it and lets start making some $$$:bears::bears:

    Think Rubio over Chavez is a decent bet? Hard to say, considering where the fight is. I think Rubio is probably a better fighter.

    Thanks for actually answering the question. Hope all is well mike_dave.

    Yes but Chavez has better management, thus Chavez W Split Dec, and the bookies know this- what we need is a fight where we can see that Chavez is going to get KTFO but the bookies think he is going to cruise to a decision....or a fight where the bookies think he is going to get KTFO, but we know that the referee will look after him.

    Problem is, I feel that the pundits and the bookies all read the good websites.

    I usually go onto Paddy Power.ie or Betfair.com or Stan James or the like. They never offer lucrative odds though.

    :lol: I probably shouldn't lay a wager on someone who is obviously dying.
