dO YOU ENJOY A BOXING MATCH MORE WHEN YOU DON'T BET ON IT?

[holmcall]

I love to walk away with some cash, but it does take away from my enjoyment to some extent.

What do you think?

[holmcall]

Do

[ER-101]

When the fight is going your way, of course you will enjoy the fight that much more. If you bet a lot then the fight is probably as stressful as a mother wathing her boy.

I enjoy watching two guys beat the crap out of each other especially when money is on the line.

ave only bet on a few fights and a got to admit its a lot better watching the fight when u have money on it saying that am lucky a havent lost when ave put a bet on a had hatton to beat castillo and pacman to beat odlh

[Fenster]

Does that even make sense?

You can't watch boxing without betting and you don't like winning money. Interesting.

Paul Newman's character Fast Eddie (not to be confused with Eddie Chambers) in The Color Of Money..."Kid,you remind me that money won is twice as sweet as money earned ! "

People betting serious money don't watch for outcome as much as they try to control it so i figure they could care less they already know who wins. Life's stressful enough without kickin back to watch the game and relax but can't cause you spent you diaper money on some fighter or team who probably has his own money on the exact opposite thing i bet on.

If you're watching a fight with no significant amount of money on the outcome you can sit back and enjoy the event more than if you're worrying about the possibility of blowing your dough if the wrong guy wins.

I love to watch a match, and putting some money on the line only adds to the excitement for me.

Aslong as its money you can afford to lose (meaning its not putting you in the hole, and you can still pay your rent). its all good.

bet on.

I have never bet on boxing.....I have always wondered how I would do over a period of fights, I did know right off the bat Shane Mosley wasn't going to beat Winky Wright, but hell there are some shockers out there and I wouldn't want to lose large sums of money on account of a cut or a headbutt or broken hand or what have you.

I enjoy boxing just fine without betting on it, although on some bouts I would really enjoy placing bets, but I haven't found the place/person with which to do such a thing.

[HattonTheHammer]

I never really bet on boxing as theres no real money to be made and 9/10 the better fighter will win.

Had a flutter on bhop to beat kelly last year and made a nice little earner but also lost a bit on betting on ricky to stop pacquiao.

I tend to frequent my betting on the horses and the weekend footie accumulators!!

Man. you were posting some serious English. How about a translation, as I am looking tp boost my knowledge of the slang? Hell, what's a flutter?

[Gandalf]

Betting is pretty much illegal in this country, so I would have to say I am a bit wealthier through never having gambled on a fight. I would love to have a little flutter because it might put some sense into what I do, but without any risk I will continue to support the underdogs unless it is one of those fighters I care about.
