Advice:Unbeaten EBU Flyweight Champion Brahim Asloum (W17-L0-D0) defends his EBU title against Spaniard Jose Lopez Bueno (W25-L7-D3) on January 10th in Paris, France (Now put back to 12th February).
These two fought out a 12 round decision back in November 2003, with the younger Asloum coming out the winner by majority decision. A fight in which 2 judges scored the bout 110-119 & 111-117, and British judge Larry O'Connell made the fight a 114-114 draw !!
Both men have very little punching power and have virtually no chance of avoiding another fight that goes via the judge's scorecards. This fight was scheduled for January 10 when we first gave you our opinion, but was postponed till Feb 12, now unfortunately Bet & Win see their mistake and are now not willing to price 10 or more completed rounds.
Only other option for this one is a larger stakes wager with Pinnacle at 1.327 about over 11.5 rounds. Somewhat different to Bet & Win's gift we know but a cert all the same, so should be played to similar stakes as advised before.
UPDATE : BET & WIN HAVE NOW OPENED BACK UP AT THEIR ORIGINAL PRICE OF 1.45 FOR 10 OR MORE ROUNDS, BE QUICK OR YOU WILL MISS IT.THE PRICE IS SURE TO CHANGE TO 1.40 THEN 1.35.MAKE SURE YOUR ON
Stake : $1000 To Win $450 (Excluding Stake & Commission)
