Tonight's card looks very interesting.
Fres Oquendo OVER Ruiz by dec ( 365 ) 5 Dimes 1 unit
In his last fight Oquendo lost a relatively close DEC to Chris Byrd. IMO Byrd is quite a bit better than Ruiz and Oquendo should fare better. In 2000-2001 John Ruiz fought 3 boring fights against Evander Holyfield and I expect this one to mirror those fights. I think a KO is unlikely in this fight.
It's just not worth taking Oquendo at 1.15 or so when he isn't too likely to KO Ruiz.
Oquendo/Ruiz Draw 2000 5 dimes 1/10 th Unit
Golota OVER Byrd by dec ( 664 ) 5 Dimes 1 Unit
Andrew is a very good boxer, but stamina is a BIG question otherwise I would play 2-3 units on this prop. Byrd has been very inactive in the last two years. Prior to that he fought 22 rounds against the brothers Klitschko and only won about 4 rounds. If Andrew is sound, he fights a lot like the Klitschkos- good jab, power and questionable stamina.
Golota OVER Byrd ( 285 ) 5 Dimes 1/2 Unit (under props menu)
Braithwaite by KO (-420) Pinny to win 1/2 Unit (laying 2.1 units)
