Tips for Tikay

Dave Hockaday the current fav for next Leeds Manager


Sacked by Forest Green Rovers when last seen, not been in work for 9 months...

His name been doing the rounds in the local press this last week. Unreal.

This article should be right up TightyEnd's street http://deadspin.com/why-i-fixed-fights-1535114232

It's a fantastic read on the art of managing a fighter, matching him up and in some cases securing a pre arranged result.

You'll need 15mins to get through it all and it will be time well spent.

That looks quite a read. I'll enjoy that later. Thanks.

Reminded me of this I read a few months ago:

Of course, the rumours about both Ali and Liston are well known. Believe what you want, as always.

For anyone interested in the boxing tonight http://cricfree.eu/live/index.php has it on schedule. Don't know if they end up showing it but definitely worth the try. And if they do you save £15.

Am at dusk, so depending on how the poker comp goes, I might well be available for updates.

Started at 7, as did I. The fights we're interested in haven't started yet, have they?

Am not intending to be out of the comp before any of the fights tho tbh!

Maduma up now.

[Tal]

Fred's chap looked spritely in the opener. Took the centre of the ring and got a couple of shots in, from what I saw. Mitchell looks nervous.

[Kmac84]

Maduma looks very comfortable.  Dominating Mitchell who seems nervour think the commentators have it spot on he's wrried about the counters.  Its a shame about Pauli's voice because I enjoy his insights. 

[Kmac84]

Micthell has found another gear.  JW has given him last 3 rounds making it 4 - 3 in Maduma's favour but the 7th was Mitchells best so far. 

[millidonk]

Yeah Mitchell abs bossing it now. Maduma was 2/9 a couple of rounds ago. Knew I should have greened.. Hoping he's kept some back.

[Tal]

Looks like it was just nerves. Maduma doesn't have the power to land a critical blow. Much like my poker game.
