Middle weight: James DeGale effortlessness into the quarters!

August 18th, 2008

The fight was tensed; both sides’ nervousness was reigning. James DeGale from Britain and Shawn Estrada from USA were in a critical situation of necessity to win or head home!

British boxer was anticipating his opponent’s moves, and betting on his quick reflexes: a quality of smartness that gave him a significant advantage, along with his speed and technique.

James’ triumph puts him face to face with Artayev, gold medalist of Athens in a game of destiny and smugness. DeGale announced that he will punch Athens’s golden boy just like he did once, and that he’s keeping the best boxing performance for later!

Betting sites were delighted by the Brit.’s statement, for it creates an atmosphere of dispute, challenge and daring: 3 mains to stimulate internet betting and sports betting.

Team USA formed out of 9 boxers is now down to 3 after Shawn’s outnumbered defeat 11-5. Eagles are definitely disappointed when it comes to boxing sport.

Akhil Kumar celebrates independence by knocking out the world champion

August 16th, 2008

The Indian surprise of the tournament is showing the world, never to under-estimate new talents or new names!

He out boxed the French Ali Hallab, a silver medalist in the world championship, and just ended knocking out and away, Russia’s WORLD CHAMPION Sergey Vodopyanov, on whom all sports betting sites were counting, in bantam weight division. Score was recounted by judges who tied the game 9-9 before re-calculation going in favor of the talented 27 years old Indian.

As Vodopyanov fell in tears, Akhil declared that being between the final 8 is the best way to celebrate his country’s independence. He will be boxing Veaceslav Gojan from Moldova, betting on a gold medal, and nothing less.

I wonder if sports betting sites and sheets will correspond with India’s talent; one thing is for sure, he definitely is a crowd magnet, as boxing tickets’ supply is falling short to demand.

Hosam Abdin himself couldn’t believe it, after beating a favorite of the competition, who was expected to reach the final stages of boxing, in Beijing. As odds were in favor of the Thai Non Boonjumnong, the pharaoh had nothing to lose, giving everything he had!

Finally, it paid off to let the whole world hear about him on TV and sports news channels.

Once again, predictions fail to come true, since new names are coming to the front side. Betting sites are finding it hard to input new names on the lists, when betting fans are left confused further more.

British hope Joe Saunders

August 13th, 2008

No one can have a better start! A teenager boxer, winning against the last previous year’s silver medalist isn’t an easy job! There must be talent! And we know it’s there.

Joe knocked Turkish boxer Adem Kilicci, outrunning him by 10 points, leaving no suspense or need to count the hits anymore.

Saunders said: “He’s a well-polished opponent and I beat him by more than 10 points, I’m in a tough draw but I’ll battle it out and do the best I can”.

The young fellow seems so confident, and yet, so capable. Will we witness a new champion in the sport of boxing? Will he affect the boxing sport bets and betting panels?

Only time can show either England made a good investment or not!

Zou, China’s boxing idol

August 13th, 2008

Nervous before the game, Zou was under huge pressure. As he heard almost 8000 spectators cheering and howling his name, he forgot all about anxiety and seemed so focused on getting rid of his 1st opponent, Venezuela’s Eduard Bermudez.

The game was too easy for the Chinese, who was moving real quick, smooth, fast and in a smart way that made Eduard and the game look too easy to finish. Zou started the Olympics with a win, and is asked to repeat that victory until the final game.

Boxing is known as a huge sport attraction, especially for betting. Bet panels and sport betting are definitely surfing around the name Zou!
