My intellgence is my gift from god......But being a smart dude also makes me believe I am always right. I am a man of patterns and that is the main reason after 6 years of gambling in all sports I am still alive in betting and not in debt. However, I have been getting being generious these last 2 months with my family and spending my winnings more loosely then ever. Well the snake finally bit. I am stuck for the first time in a while. I finally owe my bookie and it hurts. God sent me down to earth.....
 
 
Anywhere the reason for this story is that I am unsure about my bet this week. I liked mosely but I feel deep inside that I am taking him too much for value. I mean Margarito has been idle for a while and cotto I believe is not the fighter we think he is. Cotto has heart but his pride tells him to battle head-up instead of moving and hitting. Honestly Margarito was getting worked the first 8 rounds. I thought I was getting paid. But something changed. Now Mosely is a slow starter to0. He tries to figure his oppenents too much.
 
Honestly versus Mayoroga, Mosely looked bad. But versus Collazo and Cotto looked great.
 
Well I am waiting for the weight-ins to place any bet.
 
But 2 dogs got me excited. Jose Luis Herrera and Geoffrey Batello. Herrera has no chin......No chin but can punch. Enad Linchina seems okay. This line is way to high... Should be closer. Herrera lasted with CLoud for a while and cloud is a monster. Batello is really a wildcard. I have never liked Huck. I was watching the Tokaraev fight and Huck looked on his back foot. Actually many of Huck's fights is he on his backfoot.  Batello looks slick in video. Both fighters are guarded. So I will be on both for the odds. Great values.

Sup Cee!

I too am a man of patterns. I take my boxing winning and donate them all back in my fruitless quest to profit on the major sports.

I was busy today and only watched one round of him, but I swear Licina's style made me think of Golota. Weird I know, but a feeling. He looks vaguely defensively competent but very hittable, and his left hand looks like it has nothing on it.

I don't know a damn thing about this Batello dude. See what I can find tomorrow.

You really thought Cotto was in control for eight rounds? I remember him taking some serious fire already midway through the second. He was running for his life way before the end came.

CEE you will get your money back bro
you are damn good at picking the sweet science
I am going to be on Margarito Saturday
but I agree with you on Herrera and Batelo
Maybe they both go down, but the odds are generous and they are both BIG punchers
I am going to do some more research, but I think Herrera has the better chance
I have been impressed at times with Huck, never impressed with Licina

Good luck

Margarito is going to destroy Mosley. He was not getting worked for any amount of time vs Cotto. In my opinion he dominated that fight.

Margarito has been waiting to be at this place in boxing for his whole career. He showed it vs Cotto and will show it again vs Mosley. I think he beats the hell out of Shane for 12 rounds. maybe he stops him maybe he doesnt but he wins big in my opinion

If you think Mosley can hang with Rito you'll find amazing value in prop bets for this fight. This is always the case with "overrated" fighters. Rito is good but he's not a P4P top 10 IMO and can be outboxed.
 
For example: Bodog will give you + number for Mosley +2.5 rounds after 5 on Lederman's card.
