Big Bets Bobby’s Take on the Saul Alvarez vs Rocky Fielding Fight!

saul.alvarez vs rocky.fielding

This weekend’s boxing action underlines the magic of the sport. In a true ‘Rocky’ story, Briton Rocky Fielding travels to New York to face the biggest challenge of his career – a super-middleweight clash against pound-for-pound star Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez.

Speaking at the announcement of the fight, Rocky still sounded overwhelmed by the size of the task.

“It’s the Mecca of boxing. I was there three years ago with my girlfriend, did a tour around Madison Square Garden and got ourselves tickets to the New York Knicks games, $30 dollar tickets right in the top tier. I was going to my girlfriend, imagine fighting here one day. Three years later I get a call and I’m topping the bill, do you know what I mean, it’s unbelievable!”

“It’s what we dream of, it’s what we’re in the game for, big fights, big nights, big names and I don’t shy away from anyone. This fight made sense in every department.”

This truly is a real-life Rocky story. Within the space of two fights, Rocky has jumped from domestic level in the UK, to headlining a card against one of the biggest stars of the sport, defending his title. Sure, Fielding is a massive underdog coming into this bout on Saturday, but unlike some of Canelo’s previous victims, Rocky has the tools and has the size to ask a question of the Mexican.

Sometimes the narrative of a fight overpowers the technical breakdown, the detailed analysis and the sweet science of battle. This is a prime example of this. Win, lose or draw, Brits, and Liverpudlians especially, will be looking back on this fight in years to come saying “cor, remember when our Rocky headlined against Canelo?”

The odds for this fight don’t lie. They highlight the gulf in talent between these fighters with Fielding priced up at 9/1, with Canelo at 1/20. Backing Canelo in the outrights show no value, of course, so it’s down to the more unique markets to find value.

Canelo to stop Rocky Fielding and win the fight with a body shot @ 4/7 (BetVictor)
Under 6.5 rounds @ 5/6 (BetVictor)

Canelo is looking strong at the weight for a super-middleweight. The big advantage that Rocky will have in New York is his height advantage, however, this gives the Mexican free-rein to pepper the body of Fielding as the challenger overreaches in his attempts to rock the favourite. Canelo walked through the power of ‘GGG’ in two gruelling fights; Fielding is unlikely to possesses the artillery to trouble him.

Canelo is a ferocious body puncher and with the new weight looking good on him, the power he’ll be able to create in the 168lbs division will be frightening.

2019 PDC World Darts Championship Preview

dart board 1247083 1280

The best darters in the world will be stepping up to the oche at the famous Alexandra Palace in mid-December to take on the challenge of the 2019 PDC World Darts Championship. This is as big as it gets in the sport. It is the ultimate prize, the honour of being crowned the best player in the world. This will be the first edition without the greatest darts player ever, namely Phil Taylor. So the famous tournament moves into a new era. This year’s event will also see two female contenders lining up in the first round.

The action starts on December 13th, 2018. The tournament is being broadcast on SkySports.

Without the Power

How much will the game miss Phil Taylor? From an entertainment perspective, immensely. He almost signed off from his remarkable darts career in epic fashion last year, reaching the final of the 2018 World Championship. After already having announced that he was retiring at the end of the tournament, ‘The Power’ almost wrote the perfect ending. He went for his 15th World Title in the final. It wasn’t to be though as he was overturned 7-2 by Rob Cross in a shock upset. Despite being the most successful player in the history of the event, the fact is that Taylor won just one of the last eight editions. After 19 finals and 14 titles, his influence was already waning. Still, it will be strange not to see the legend lining up at the Ally Pally.

MVG

It’s Michael van Gerwen who is the current dominant force in the game. He is the one now to beat. The Dutchman is the one that everyone is gunning for and at the same time, basically hoping to avoid in any draw of any tournament. Going into this year’s edition he has two World Championship titles under his belt. The most recent of MVG’s titles was earned in 2017. That leaves Mighty Mike as just one of five players to have won the World Championship of Darts on more than one occasion.

MVG, along with Scotland’s Gary Anderson, England’s Adrian Lewis and the retired John Part has won the event twice. That’s something to put into context really when you stack it up against the 14 World titles that Phil Taylor won. Taylor basically has won more World Championship titles than every other player in the history of the tournament has managed, combined (14 v 11).

MVG has already picked up the World Grand Prix, Premier League and the Masters titles this year from the PDC Premier events. He also got his hands on the World Series of Darts crown. Van Gerwen is the 11/8 outright favourite at top bookmakers to get his hands on his third World Championship title. Once again, while the tournament starts in mid-December the final itself is being played on January 1st of next year so technically it is the 2019 PDC World Darts Championship.

Can Cross defend?

There was a remarkable outcome at last season’s World Championship. England’s Rob Cross came totally out of nowhere to topple the entire field. Of course, upsets in sport happen, and this was a remarkable one. It was Cross’s first-ever appearance in the main draw of the World Darts Championship. With some luck and remarkable calmness under pressure, Cross prevailed. Along the way, he survived two match darts against Michael Smith, survived six match darts in managing to overcome favourite Michael Van Gerwen in the semifinals and then he went up against Taylor in the final.

Although it was a wonderful underdog story at the tournament it was actually the 10th time a player had won the World Championship at the first attempt. There are general odds of 5/2 available on a First Time Winner happening at this year’s event. Cross failed to win a PDC Premier title at any other event in 2018, but there is a history of title defences at the World Championship. Phil Taylor, of course, did it, but Adrian Lewis won his two titles in back to back years (2011/12), as did Gary Anderson (2015/16). Cross is a general 18/1 shot at top bookmakers to defend his title.

The Chasing Pack

Among the other key players who are lining up at 2019 World Championship include Peter Wright, Michael Smith and Mensur Suljovic. Of them, it would be “Snakebite” Wright who would be the least surprising of them to come through and scrap his way to the title. Scotland’s Wright reached the final for the 2014 edition where he was stopped by Michael van Gerwen but is always a dangerous threat.

Michael Smith surprised everyone in reaching the final of this year’s Premier League of Darts and he got the first major title of his career this year in winning the Shanghai Darts Masters over Cross. He also reached finished as runner-up in Melbourne and at the World Series of Darts. There there is Mensur Suljovic perhaps the player who fits the bill as the best outside shot most of all.

He shocked everyone in winning the Champions League of Darts last year and the Austrian has had a strong season. “The Gentle” reached the final of this year’s World Matchplay and was a semifinalist at four other PDC Premier events. While like Smith he doesn’t have a particularly great track record at the World Championship, he would only have to look at the inspiration that Cross’s win twelve months ago for inspiration.

One of the greats

The atmosphere at the Ally Pally for the Darts World Championship is what makes this event so special on top of the prestige of the title. It’s a raucous affair and the crown participation really amps up the intensity of the event. The occasion can put tremendous pressure on even the best players in the world. It is one of the greatest sporting spectacles around and it is a perfect staple for snuggling up on a cold winter’s night in front of the box and watching the arrows fly.

Best Bets of the Day – Sunday December 9th 2018

Newcastle v Wolves
Premier League – 4.00 pm
Sky Sports

Newcastle somehow managed to dig out a point in midweek. They hopped across country to Goodison Park to meet Everton on Wednesday night. The Magpies got a 1-1 draw, despite barely getting a touch of the ball. After their home drubbing against West Ham last weekend, that will have been a welcome point for Rafa Benitez’s men. Can the Magpies get back to winning ways in the northeast? Well, leading bookmakers have them as 9/5 underdogs for their Sunday showdown against Wolves.

The Magpies are just W2 L6 in eight home games this term in the top flight. Those two wins were in their last three on Tyneside though. Interestingly six of Newcastle’s eight home games this season have been settled by a one-goal margin only (Newcastle W2 L4). So the Winning Margin market is somewhere you might want to look for this game. Wolves were slumping badly with one point from a possible 18. Out of the blue they overturned a 1-0 halftime deficit at home against Chelsea in midweek to get three points. That’s the best possible way to put some wind in your sails. Can Wolves build momentum now on the back of that result as they go as 8/5 favourites at St James Park?

Moenchengladbach v Stuttgart
Bundesliga – 5.00 pm
BT Sport

I’m taking the jump over the Bundesliga for a look at the Best Bets of the Day for Sunday. It is actually another look at Monchengladbach who I brought to light recently. That was ahead of their high-profile show against RB Leipzig (which Moenchengladbach lost). So it’s that defeat which makes this interesting. Moenchengladbach has won six out of six home games this season in the German top-flight. They have scored 18 goals and have conceded 3 only at home. Reading that, it’s no shock that they are odds-on for this home fixture against the struggling Stuttgart.

But will the 1/2 odds on at leading bookmakers appeal to punters? Stuttgart is deeply troubled and has been all season with just a W3 D2 L8 record. But the rub of that is that they have won two of their last three games. Granted they were against Nuremberg and Augsburg, the two sides directly above them in the bottom five, but it’s positives. Positives can lead to more self-belief, more confidence and that in turn can lead to potential upsets. You know Moenchengladbach’s winning streak isn’t going to go on forever on home soil. It is the kind of situation where giving the underdog a good Asian Handicap can offer up some strong variety in betting options.

Racing 92 v Leicester
European Championship Cup – 3.15 pm
BT Sport

Another look at some of the European Champions Cup action. What we have lined up here is something of an important one for the Tigers. French side Racing 92 are already four points clear of Leicester at the top of the table. So they are in a commanding position. They may end up being untouchable as the Pool 4 leaders if they were to win this one. After two rounds of European Champions Cup action, Racing 92 have a bigger points difference (+33) of all teams in action. Racing 92 edged the Scarlets by a point in their opening game before thumping Ulster on home soil, picking up a winning bonus point too.

Leicester meanwhile had a rough opening in a 24-10 reverse out at Ulster. They then got themselves up and running with a fantastic big win at Welford Road against the Scarlets. The Tigers got a bonus point against the Welsh club as well. So now this is a huge top-two showdown in the Pool on Sunday. This is Leicester’s chance to make a move on the French side. Because they are out on the road, it is Leicester who are the underdogs for the big showdown. But they will be looking for a way to stick close to their opponents and the handicap market is always worth digging around in for these top rugby showdowns.

John Durkan Chase
Horse Racing – 2.00 pm
Sky Sports

The John Durkan on Sunday was given a massive boost as Cheltenham Gold Cup 2019 favourite Presenting Percy has taken an entry. This will be his seasonal debut when he lines up in the Grade 1 race at Punchestown. Presenting Percy loves a bit of Cheltenham Festival action having won his second race there this year with a victory in the RSA Novices. The seven-year-old is targeting bigger things as he goes in the Gold Cup early next year.

So this is a chance to see where he is at in this Punchestown outing, where he is one of 19 early entries. Min, who is trained by Willie Mullins will now have a very interesting match up in this one with Presenting Percy in opposition. Mullins has landed three of the last five winners of the race. Min was last seen at Punchestown back in April where he lacked a finish three from home. Min is no mug with back to back second-place finishes at the Cheltenham Festival. The first was in the Supreme Novices and then the Queen Mother (both to Altior). He’ll be priming himself for another assault on the Festival in March and like Presenting Percy, this is a good opening test for the season.

Karpat The Favourites For Champions Hockey League Glory

Karpat Hockey Championship

The 2018-19 Champions Hockey League tournament is building to a climax with three teams vying for favouritism at the quarter-final stage, but it is Karpat of Finland who are rated the likeliest winners with the second legs of the quarter-finals still to be played.

Semi-finalists in the inaugural tournament back in 2014, Karpat has not reached the last four in the three succeeding seasons, but BigBetBookmakers.com is currently predicting that they will win the 2018-19 Champions Hockey League. BigBetBookmakers.com have drawn on the betting odds available from top ice hockey sportsbooks and using the principle of implied probability, they have concluded that the Finnish side is the current favourite, just ahead of Frollunda HC.

If Karpat are to justify that favouritism, they will have to overturn a first leg deficit with RBS Salzburg, who won 3-2 on Tuesday to take a narrow advantage into next week’s second leg. After topping Group G, Salzburg brushed aside Dragons de Rouen in their Round Of 16 game, and then edged out Karpat thanks to a frenetic four-goal third period, that was capped by a dramatic late goal from John Hughes, scored with just 23 seconds left on the clock.

But despite losing by a single goal, Karpat played well in Austria, dominating the game for long periods, and were arguably unlucky to lose the game. Their home record should also give them plenty of confidence for the second leg, as they won their three home games in Group F by an aggregate score of 16-5. The reigning Finnish champions are also in strong form domestically, leading the way in the Liiga and are five points clear of their nearest rivals.

If Karpat do slip up on the way, then Frollunda HC could be best-placed to take advantage. Last season was the first Champions Hockey League tournament in which Frollunda failed to make the final, going out in the Round of Sixteen, but they look in a strong position to at least reach the semi-finals this time round, holding a 4-1 lead over Czech Republic team Kometa Brno. Assuming that Frollunda progress to the semi-finals, the two-time Champions will meet either fellow Swedish contender, Skelleftea or another Czech team, HC Plzen.

Frollunda can also boast two of the tournament’s top-three scorers in American Ryan Lasch and Canadian Chay Genoway, who have contributed 29 points between them, and the high-powered Swedes will provide dangerous opposition if they meet Karpat in the final. And one thing we can be sure of is that neither of last year’s finalists will be involved in this season’s showpiece finale. Both reigning champions JYP and Swedish rivals Vaxjo Lakers, who played out a tight 2-0 final game last season were eliminated at the Group stage this time round, finishing third in their respective sections.

Vuelta A España – Yates Wins First Grand Tour Event In Spain

Vuelta a España Yates

British cyclist Simon Yates won the first Grand Tour event of his career when he clinched the three-week La Vuelta a Espana. The win was also the first for his Australian-based team Mitchelton-Scott and Yates was the third rider from the UK to clinch a Grand Tour event in 2018, joining Chris Froome who was successful in the Giro d’Italia and Tour de France winner Geraint Thomas.

Last year, the race had been dominated by favourite Froome, who arrived in Spain following his fourth Tour de France, but after winning three out of four of the previous Grand Tour events, Froome opted to sit out the Vuelta, which left the 2018 contest wide open.

Four former winners of the event were among the favourites. Nairo Quintana and Alejandro Valverde from the Movistar Team were joined by Vincenzo Nibali of Bahrain-Merida and Fabio Aru. Richie Porte of BMC Racing Team was the forecasted winner, having won the Tour De Suisse and finished third in the Tour De Romandie. He had also been riding well in the Tour De France before crashing out in the ninth stage. But Yates was also prominent in the betting after a strong effort in the Giro d’Italia earlier during the year when he led the event going into the 19th Stage.

Yates has often struggled in time trials during stage races, but he performed solidly in the opening time trial of La Vuelta and although he dropped a few seconds on Stage Two, he signalled his intent in Stage Four – the first of the mountain stages – finishing eighth in the climb to the summit of the Puerto de Alfacar, which lifted him up the leaderboard to third.

After losing some ground to Valverde on Stage Eight, Yates claimed the red jersey on Stage Nine thanks to a breakaway win by Ben King, and he held it for most of the rest of La Vuelta, dropping out of top spot briefly after Stage 12, but reclaiming it with a stirring climb up La Camperona to win Stage 14, which enabled him to open up a healthy 20 second lead over Valverde.

There were still obstacles to overcome for Yates, including another time trial in Stage 16, but Yates excelled, extending his lead by seven seconds, and he established a dominant lead on Stage 19 when he attacked on the last climb of the stage to finish ahead of Valverde by more than a minute.

Victory was sealed in the penultimate stage of the race, which included six categorised climbs and a total ascent distance of 4,000 metres over the 97.5 km. Miguel Angel Lopez and 2016 Vuelta champion Quintana both attacked before the summit of Coll de la Comella, but Yates chose his moment to fight back, and as Quintana dropped back through the field, Yates was able to coast home in third to record a famous win, the fifth Grand Tour event in a row to be won by a UK rider.

Best Bets of the Day – Saturday, December 8th 2018

sarri2807a

Chelsea v Manchester City
Premier League – 5.30 pm
Sky Sports

Can Chelsea do something that no other side has managed this season in the Premier League? Can they beat Manchester City? This game deservedly takes its place in the Best Bets of the Day. That is because it’s a game which could see the Citizens move even closer to a league title. Manchester City have won their last seven league games after beating Watford in midweek. The gap is starting to open up at the top now. The Citizens have won away at Arsenal and Spurs this season and held out for a conservative 0-0 draw at Anfield. So maximum points for City would put more distance between themselves a wannabe title contender. As a testament to their strengths, they are 4/5 odds-on at leading bookies to raid Stamford Bridge.

It also means that City have gotten their toughest away games out of the way this season. So it will be home comforts for them against Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs later in the season. Chelsea are defending an eight-match unbeaten home form this season. They did hold second-placed Liverpool to a draw at Stamford Bridge. A win would do nothing in terms of Chelsea getting in the title race. But it would certainly inject a whole new level of confidence in Maurizio Sarri’s men to push on for a top-four finish. Manchester City’s biggest challenges have been when teams have come out and pressed them. Can Chelsea’s ‘Sarriball’ style possibly unlock the brilliance of the visitors? A midweek loss at Wolves leaves Chelsea bigger underdogs in this one at 16/5 odds at leading bookmakers.

Reading v Sheffield United
Championship – 5.30 pm
Sky Sports

Reading have had their compounding issues this season in the Championship. They are struggling along near the foot of the table. Going into the weekend they are only outside of the drop zone on goal difference. What has been helping them is that they have produced better scoring power than anyone else currently inside the bottom six. Can they use that to an advantage on home soil on Saturday evening and grab some precious points for themselves? The home form of the Royals hasn’t even that bad lately though but are still 10/3 underdogs at a leading bookmaker in the match outright to win.

They are unbeaten in four at the Madejski and they have produced at least two goals in five of their last six there. 80% of their home games have gone over 2.5 goals this season. That may be a market worth exploring for the game. The Blades, who are a top-six side, of course, are not going to be a pushover, however. The away form of Sheffield United though, has taken a tumble lately having won just one of their last four on the road (D1 L2). Will that open the door for Reading to get a much-needed win from a position as underdogs?

That having been said Sheffield United have the fourth-best away record in the second tier. They will be kicking off at an odds-on price to claim maximum points. The bookies are still wary of the threat of the Blades who are 4/5 odds-on with the leading bookmakers.

Exeter v Gloucester
European Champions Cup Rugby – 1.00 pm
Channel 4

It is an all-English affair on Saturday afternoon in the European Champions Cup. This is Pool 2 action where Gloucester and the Chiefs are looking to make up some ground on the top two (Munster and Castres respectively). Exeter Chiefs, going so strongly in the Premiership have failed to win either of their opening group games in the Champions Cup this season. They opened with an exciting 10-10 draw against Munster at Sandy Park. But then after an explosive first half out at Castres in their second game, Exeter couldn’t find a winning touch in the second half, missing out 29-25 but getting a bonus point.

Gloucester started in a solid fashion taking out French side Castres at Kingsholm, a result which did give their opponents a losing bonus point. But then Gloucester was unable to build on that as they were outclassed away at Munster. So now heading out on the road again, this is a difficult game in which to try and make up ground. Gloucester lost 23-6 on a trip to Sandy Park in this season’s Premiership and will have no doubts about the size of the task ahead of them. Gloucester are 7/2 underdogs to pull off the away win with the Chiefs heavy odds-on favourites at 1/5 at top bookmakers. Can the visitors at least show some improvement on their previous visit to Exeter this season? The general handicap line sits at +12 for the visitors.

Kell Brook v Michael Zerafa
Boxing – 7.00 pm
Sky Sports

Did the Deontay Wilder v Tyson Fury event spoil boxing for everyone for a bit? It is going to be hard to top the action from that epic draw in the heavyweight division. It pretty much capped off a superb year for the sport. This weekend’s top boxing action sees Sheffield star Kell ‘Special K’ Brook continue his comeback trail. After back to back losses against Gennady Golovkin and Errol Spencer (losing his IBF welterweight title in the latter) Brooks last stepped out for an easy second-round win over Sergey Rabchenko in March this year, winning the vacant WBC Silver super-welterweight title. It is back to home soil for Brook this weekend as he faces Australian Michael Zerafa.

Brooks is a general 4/11 to win this by a knockout at leading bookmakers. Brook takes a 37-2 career record with him into the fight. Zerafa, aka Pretty Boy, is the massive underdog for the fight. He is a former Commonwealth Super-Welterweight champion and has a 25-2 career record. The talk from his camp, of course, is that Brook is underestimating Zerafa. The Australian has a 52% knockout record. He carries an eight-fight winning streak into the duel with him, but this is a genuine step up in class of opposition for Zerafa. But that of course, is where the real upsets happen.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of course when it comes to the full weekend of the high-class sporting option. Check out more weekend tips with Big Bets Bobby!

Championship Update: The Masters 2019 Prediction Report

DtGurgrVAAAG0 I

The Masters is a major golf tournament which takes place each April. There are four tournaments which are considered to be ‘majors’ with the Masters being the first one of the calendar year. This often sets the tone for the rest of the season.

It is an historic event which is watched by millions of golf enthusiasts around the world and the tournament regularly provides a tense and nerve-wracking final round which keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. The course has undergone a number of improvements and changes over the years but still retains its original charm.

Unlike the other majors, the Masters is always played at the same venue with the Augusta National Golf Course playing host to the tournament. It began in 1934 and was originally known as the Augusta National Invitational.

Winners will be awarded the iconic green jacket and achieving this is seen as one of the biggest achievements in sport. They will also become an honorary member of the golf club as a result. Jack Nicklaus holds the record with six tournament victories, his last success came in 1986.

2019 Prediction Report

Jordan Spieth currently has the joint-highest implied probability of winning the 2019 Masters. He is level with Tiger Woods, whose probability dropped after a poor performance in the Hero World Challenge and a loss to Phil Mickelson in “The Match”.

Woods is a four-time Masters winner and will hoping to secure his fifth title in April. He has spent some time away from the game but returned in 2018 and it wasn’t long until he was back amongst the winners. Woods was victorious in Atlanta back in September 2018, beating Billy Horschel in the 2018 Tour Championship. Following this success, he was reinstated as the favourite with a 10% implied probability of winning another major with the Masters the most likely outcome.

Spieth is a former Masters champions and despite a below-par 2018 at all four majors, punters are still confident of his chances in Augusta. He is experienced at the course and he’s always likely to make the cut here. He has never finished outside of the top 11 at the tournament and he will always give his backers a run for their money.

Dustin Johnson is third in the betting and has an implied probability of 9.09%. He is another incredibly consistent player who has achieved three straight top ten finishes at the first major of the season. He quietly put himself into contention in 2018 and is likely to put on a decent show once more. He made two top ten finishes last season but missing the cut at The Open and coming Tied 27th in the PGA has the market confidence in his chances drift ever so slightly during the latter part of 2018.

Rory McIlroy also has an implied probability of 9.09% and his price has also drifted since September 2018. The Irishman is considering turning his back on the European Tour in 2019 and concentrating on the PGA Tour instead. McIlroy claims this move would help him win more majors but despite this bold claim, his probability has decreased.

Brooks Koepka is one of the few players whose odds have shortened and his implied probability has increased. He is the fifth favourite with many of the best bookmakers and is ranked amongst the best chances of success in 2019. He has an implied probability of 7.69% and following his rise to number one in the rankings, his chances of adding another major to his recent haul is a real possibility.

Last Year

The 82nd edition of the Masters was suitably entertaining and was won by Patrick Reed, who claimed the green jacket for the first time. His final round of 71 secured his first major title finishing narrowly ahead of Rickie Fowler. Joint-favourite for the 2019 tournament, Jordan Spieth finished in third ahead of Spain’s Jon Rahm.

It was a hugely enjoyable tournament and made all the more impressive by the final round average of 70.49 which is believed to be the lowest single round scoring average in the history of the major.

There were four players tied fifth including Rory McIlroy, Henrik Stenson and Bubba Watson.
