Wagers for week of 02.09

a nice small week of quality fights.
johanssen-burns: this is a hard fight to call. burns is tricky and he handed graham earl his first loss. johanssen probally has the tools to win but i wouldnt count burns out. burns pays +115

chambers-rossy: 2 prospects fighting, who cares if neither is really that great. chambers probally has enough skill to avoid anything rossy can bring. fast eddie probally cruises to an easy, boring UD. chambers pays -240

juarez-lucero: there was a bad line on the sportsboard when this first came out. the first line read juarez -170, i knew that was a mistake. its been corrected to -1700 and thats right on the money. easy win for rocky.

mosley-collazo: i think mosley wins this fight, allthough it may not be pretty. he has the tools and does the little things that will help him get a decision. collazo is game but in the longrun just doesnt have the physical tools to compete with sugar shane. also collazo will not enjoy the size advantage he had vs. hatton. mosley by TKO/KO/DQ is a good bet because collazo bleeds. mosley pays -360

harris-lazcano: juan lazcano came in fat his last fight vs. fringe contender garnica and almost got beat. probally got a gift from what i have read, before that he was wrecking solid fighters. harris is overated and i think he is badly overpriced at -295. juan lazcano paying +235 is solid wager. this is a really a pick'em, and in my mind almost losing to a journeyman is not as bad as being knocked out by one like harris was not so long ago.

ward-salazar: this is the easy money fight. ward pays -1300. she has allready beat salazar and will beat her again simply because she will be about 9 inches taller than her. ward also proves that someone can be brutally KO'ed and still come back. her ko loss to wolfe was as hard of a KO as ive ever seen.

kikui-kono: kikui has allready won a close fight vs. kono. however i think kono has a pretty awesome name. kohei kono sounds like a ninja. ill wager on a ninja everytime. kono pays +140

30 on a 5 man mosley, chambers, juarez, lazcano, ward parlay.
30 on a 3 man chambers, ward, juarez parlay
30 on lazcano
20 on chambers
10 on kono the ninja.
10 on mosley by ko/tko/dq
