Mack,

How do you rate this kid George Groves?
Good grief, he punches hard and looks quite the prospect.
I imagine he will grab the British belt this weekend from Adamu.

Groves is a very good prospect. When you think of how thin the middleweight division is I think he can go along way. He has all the tools to be at least a world contender. For me the best Prospect was Darren Surtherland. I have no doubt he would have been a world champ one day. Sadly he took his own life and we will never understand why. Groves v DeGale will be a big fight one day. A fight that will probably define both their career. I would be very confident on Grovers in this fight, I think he has far too much class for a guy like Adamu BUT I don't think his odds are generous. Maybe Parlay him with B Hop. Neither guy is losing their respective fights..

Appreciate the feedback, as I know you have your finger on the pulse with the Euros in particular
Groves is talking quite a big game, and I believe he can back it up
Adamu is in too deep here

hmmm maybe its because I am beyond drunk but I am really having second thoughts on Haye v Ruiz on points..Think this could end up being a cracker. Either way guys I recommend a no play on this...My intial thought was Haye on points but this fight looks more unpredictable by the second. Would still say points but with not the confidence I had..

One play I am starting to LOVE! is the over 9.5 rounds on Jones v Hopkins at EVENS!!!!!WOW!!. Yes there are HUGE question marks on Roy's chin, but I am not sure Hopkins is the guy to really test that chin. The first fight was a snoozefest and I think we are in for history repeating itself for snoozefest 2! Roy hates this guy and I don't see him lying down to quick here.

I know I hit last week but was not hugely confident. Same here again but just thought would post what I am backing. Another bet is a parlay of Groves, B-Hop and Lucian. Good luck this weekend...

Well Mack
Bute is tomorrow
and he should hit I believe
Miranda outclassed and with only the old "puncher's chance"
so you parlay should pay nicely

WOW!
I take it back
Vassell showed mad heart after the slow start
tremendous battle
Vassell wins in the cards, and I think the decision was fair
I had Vassell 115-113

he was -350 ghost pre fight. Thats a BIG sweat for fighter at those odds against a guy he should have beaten easily. I don't think he is going anywhere

Good point.  Purdy, at +300, almost had it.
Vassell did it with heart and guts, not skill.
Go Bute !
