you better get some deontay wilder b/c he is gonna win

 

[GreenDoberman]

Like the kid and hope he does, but he is taking a monstrous step up in class and he hasn't exactly dominated against lesser opponents.

Too bad these forums revolve around drama because:

This is the best thread of the year...hands down!:toast:

 

[GreenDoberman]

Denniz,
There are a few who will read it and appreciate it. Hopefully make a little money along the way as well. It will never sell copy like "I had sex with 5starbomb and a tranny" but that is not the audience it was intended for.

 

[GreenDoberman]

Seen it, popped it. Fight supposed to start in a minute of two.

Unless he's sick don't know why the big move on Diaz.

Vastine has like a 7-inch reach advantage.

 

[SportSavant]

Vastine is now -350 at B365 in running

 

[SportSavant]

GD - not sure if you're still up champ, but that Vastine line is now +333 at 5dimes.

WTF!!!!!

I was checking the lines right before the fight and didnt see that, was that in running?

 

[SportSavant]

I cant beleive this, Vas was -2500 and Diaz was +1200 at one point at B365 in running,

also, that strange line that Dsethi found at 5 dimes.....

seems very weird

 

[GreenDoberman]

Holy crap. Now we know what that was about. Hilarious!

If you saw that fight, there's no need for an explanation.

 

[GreenDoberman]

That was before the fight SS. Someone must have pounded Diaz. My guess after seeing the fight was it was the referee.

Wow, just wow.

 

[SportSavant]

I didnt see what happend GD, but I was following B365 betting in running, it was -2500 for our guy and +1200 for Diaz.

I thought about putting a 20$ hedge bet on the +1200 but said to myself, heck, forget it..... no need, its a sure winner....

what happened?

The referee gave four points to the Dominican boxer for Vastine holding. The last one when it was tied at 10-10 with :19 left.

Ridiculous that any points were taken.

Basically, he got screwed royally.

 

[SportSavant]

GD what happened who won

our guy lost after being a -2500 favorite in the third round

 

[SportSavant]

Has the Degale fight started?

 

[GreenDoberman]

Dsethi,
You didn't watch it? Vastine won but Diaz got the decision.

It was 12-10 Diaz but four of those points were Vastine warnings for holding. It was a questionably refereed bout at best.

We were on the better fighter. Of course our best lose. We move on.

 

[GreenDoberman]

Degale-Sutherland fighting now.

close fight, 1-1 in second right now.

 

[SportSavant]

Degale is now -150 at Bet365

 

[GreenDoberman]

Degale looks much sharper up 7-1 now.

Barring a catastrophe he wins.

 

[GreenDoberman]

Degale should be -5000 right now.
