at bet365, Froch is 10/13. I was expecting 4/7 Taylor or something. I'm not asking who you think will win the fight, but who will you be betting on.

I'm going to give it a miss, Taylor is the better fighter but his heart just doesn't seem in it these days while Froch is full of beans having just won the title at long last.

I'm picking Froch but I won't be betting on unless the odds widen quite considerably.

I fancy Taylor to win, but like Gaz I won't be betting. Think the odds will be too close to make it worth it.

I price it 3/5 Taylor, 9/5 Froch, 30/1 Draw.

Taylor is a stand out bet at evens.

Taylor is a cracking price at evs. The bookies in America have Taylor favourite.

I will be backing Taylor, he is a solid puncher and Carl takes too many shots. His chin might be great but it still needs protecting.

Did you have that punt on the Chambers fight TFFP?

Nah, I fell asleep during The Wire. I probably would have taken Chambers outright and made a few pounds, but hey sleep is more important. Nothing really catching my eye tonight.

What was Chambers to win?

After his gutless performance against Povetkin and Peter quitting against Klitschko..... I decided to leave that one alone totally and never bothered checking.

Chambers was pretty much at evens days before the fight. After the weigh in and a lot of money coming in for him he was about 10/13.

Not seen enough (any) of Quigley to punt on that fight.

I was tempted to have a dabble on this one..... but after a quick bit of Boxrecing have decided to leave alone.

Dodson is the bigger name and has boxed in better company..... but has done little of note since being beaten by Froch, other than a close points win over the guy that lost to Anderson last night (forgotten his name already!). Quigley has a stoppage win over the same opponent, and a stoppage loss to Cleverly a while back.

A fairly even match IMO though I lean slightly in Dodson's favour. The odds aren't enticing enough though.

Aye, purely from Boxrec Quigley would seem a good value bet. But having seen nothing of him I just couldn't bet on something like that without having an idea of styles. Too much of a punt.

I've got an accumulator on Betfair for England, Spain and Italy to win today. Special offer...any winnings are tripled by Betfair.

I'm kind of suprised that the odds are so close, thought Froch would be the underdog, but I think bookies are realising that its way too big a risk, with what a quality fighter Froch is. But no will not be betting.

I am not placing a bet on this one. I like both kids who both come to fight. this will be the toughest challenge of Froch's career. If pushed I might pick Taylor but I rteally like Froch as well. There is no BS about Froch he comes to fight. Very refreshing attitude. I would have fancied Froch strongly against Calzaghe.

the racing post paper found the best bet for dodson fight it was 4/5 not to go the distance had a few quid on that and this morning im still feelin very lucky !! not many fights finish in the 12th round i was about to put the slip on the fire, i thought this was a good bet with neither man having a history of goin the 12 round distance i was nearly wrong!
