Publicity. Pure and Simple. Plus the fact they probably haven't laid much on the fight yet.

Yes i heard that on the radio earlier. Soon find out if that was a stupid decision. Seem to remember them paying out on Man u to Win the league and then City won it.

Sensible move, the publicity will mean they'll get a lot of action on McGregor now I imagine and it's all basically free money for them. They know the fight is a foregone conclusion.

Personally wouldn't go anywhere near that game. Burnley normally much weaker away, Lancashire derby, changed line up. I don't see the value?

11/10 to win a Lancashire Derby away from home?

Not a bet for me




Kilara Phoroah in the 8:51 at Peterborough at 8/1 is the vale each way bet 3 places Skybet. Absolute certainty to place at the very least. If it gets on the bunny, will potentially win.

Race is also on Sky sports.

People who don't watch UFC think it's a forefone conclusion.


His punching power is seriously impressive. And his chin is very good. But it's hand speed that will cause problems even with gloves. The fact they're 8lb gloves will help.

If I buy the fight (first time I would have gone for a stream in a long long time), I might even stick a tenner on McGregor at 4/1

I really really hope Connor wins though.

It is a foregone conclusion if Mayweather wants it to be. There is a lot more to boxing than punching.

Absolute bonkers

McGregors hand speed is something most boxers would dream of having. Mayweather hasn't seen someone with that speed of punch and movement and that's why I think he will stun the world Saturday

It's because it's a derby that I fancy it. Any other L1 team and Burnley wouldn't be up for it, but they know they have to win tonight and quality should tell through. Think they've won their last 6 v Blackburn.

Paddy Power and Betfair are owned by the parent company Paddy Power Betfair. I assume as part of that arragement PP have a 0% commission exchange account to manage liabilities. They can pay out at 2/9 and and cover themselves on Betfair for as much as they want. It's a risk free publicity stunt.

Ladbrokes will likely use Betdaq to do something similar if the liquidity is there on Betdaq.

It's not a mug's game if you have a sensible consistent staking plan and choose your bets very carefully.

It's extremely difficult though and I am happy to admit I can't make a profit from it long term which is why I mainly stick to matched betting which does produce risk free profits if you do it correctly.

His "punching power" was because he absolutely killed himself to get to Featherweight, when he fought Diaz - nothing much comparatively speaking. He no longer had the height and reach advantage to make his timing count so effectively.

Plus he catches people going backwards, look at Poirier actually caught him with the elbow on the back of the head to win the fight. Aldo he psyched out into charging onto the fadeaway hook. It was impressive, but don't forget Mayweather fought Canelo and I'd take a punch off Conor before the ginger Mexican lad every time.

Also they're 8oz gloves mate, 8lbs would be like some comedy death gloves. That plays into Mayweather's hands not Conor's.

Floyd is the boxer and can land volume, going backwards and off the ropes. Neither of that suits McGregor. You're also talking about the world's greatest defensive boxer. He can already move out of the way of gloves which are bigger with ease, the size thing only really plays into his hands offensively and defensively.

His accuracy and technique will be assisted by those. The only X factor is his busted up hands. If they go or swell that might be Conor's best chance. But plenty of boxers have overcome that over long matches.

It's worth noting Diaz beat him easily at boxing range the first time around and he regularly spars Andre Ward et al. The difference between McGregor the first and second time was enough to negate that range and change the fight but it was a hell of a test for him.

I've been watching him since Cage Warriors and don't fancy his chances much at all. A lot of people in the media are getting paid to talk up his chances and that depresses me immensely as I had a fair bit of respect for some of them.

The best weapon he has is surprise. There's no boxing footage of him out there (the edited Malinaggi stuff isn't even that convincing and Paulie is coming off the couch there anyway) Listen to all the breakdowns and they talk about shots that work in MMA because you're guarding kicks and takedowns, in boxing you get cracked for leaving gaps like that.

McGregor's got a chance and it's maybe more than a puncher's chance but not much. If this is the Floyd we're used to seeing he gets blown away. If time has taken a toll it helps him, but not much. He may well crack Floyd, but if that's the plan he's going in struggling, better than him have needed way more than that and come up woefully short.

If you've put the bet on a relatively short time before the bets are paid, you've made an excellent return. Turning £180k into £220k is an excellent return: 22% in a matter of days or so.

No doubt there are people who make a living like that.

Matched betting's not really gambling though.

Re gambling: You can choose your bets as carefully as you like - Rommers does, and his dead cert for a place at the very least came last.

I rest my case.
