Do you bet on the fights?

[beenKOed]

Typically, when you bet, are you betting for or against a fighter? Do you follow the odds everytime? I have never bet on a fight, so I'm curious. Yes, I did say never!

I believe a few guys do bet on the fights yes. They're all brilliant

I always bet on the underdog and put small money on a draw for the high odds.
Best bets are on mayweather let's say £100 on to win £25 back is worth £500 on to win £100 back as you know he will win.
I always bet against khan and when prescott beat him I won £1300 because I knew it would happen in the first round. I won £60 on Garcia to win with £2.50 bet, I won a fare bit on prizefighter recently as had a feeling tor hamer would do it and knew kingpin would be runner up

Interesting, you bet for and against fighters and always have the odds in mind. I don't think I would enjoy boxing as much, if money was involved. It takes all kinds because things would be as boring as a bucket of clear water if we were all the same.

Example: I'm a froch fan and I even had a bet that he would lose by ko/tko or decision to cover myself so no matter what happend I'd walk away with something.
Id be gutted froch lost but I would have gained out of a negative if you know what I mean

I bet on boxing when the right fight at the right price comes around. For example I recently had £1000 on Haye to KO Chisora. I just couldn't see any other result. I was robbed in reality as at first I had it with Skybet and got a great price of 15/8. Then when it was announced on fightweek it would only be a 10 rounder Sky voided my bet and then the price dropped right down to I think it was 5/4 with Sky despite the fact Haye actually had less time to get the KO than I originally had bet on.

Anyway to cut a long story I went with Paddy Power who at the time were offering great bonuses and free bets to new customers and I had just signed up so I put 20 £50 bets on and got an extra £250 worth of free bets with some at 6/4 before their price dropped to 5/4 also and I ended up taking that for quite a few of my bets but all in all I ended up coming out with a very nice little wedge.

I had a nice bet on Price to KO Sexton a couple of months back and I also won a few quid on Price to KO Mcdermott in the first round in their fight too although that wasn't a huge stake but the big odds made up for that. I'm well up on my boxing gambling but I only bet when the price is half decent and I'm 90% sure it will come in. I can literally go a year without a serious bet on boxing but when the fights come round that I do fancy a big bet on, my house is literally bouncing. The neighbours actually said to me the other week "I take it you won on Haye, we heard the screams" lol!

Been betting , on boxing in the Olympics this week, not big bets, as you no the judge's are viewing
the fight's from a far, probable half a mile away.
