a couple flyers on......eric regan-185 to get some "get back" vs journeyman pedro ortega .......ortega lost a 10 round decision in their first go round....then tko`d regan legitimately in the 2nd go round.....
they are fighting in california....close to regan`s backyard....of course ortega is mexican so he`ll have some following,also....
regan was considered somewhat of a prospect prior to the loss to ortega....ortega`s a bit wild...and to be truthful,he is a journeyman....he almost always loses when he steps up....
i see regan being more careful and boxing his way to a win(he`s 6`4" tall) to get his career back on track....
a little steep...but i suspect if regan can
finish,he`ll get the nod....he`s the guy with the future...
don`t like laying odds,but,what the hey....
btw,the odds jumped all the way up to around -260...i wouldn`t lay that much,myself...
also took a flyer on david telesco at +125 when it opened....i don`t like this as much now that the line has moved towards telesco....he`s 36....he`s been relatively inactive....he`s fighting a solid lefty....even though harmon has hit a rough patch in his career..lost 4 of his last 7.....but look closer....roy jones....montell griffin....michalczewski....and cruiser o`neil bell...
that`s being in real tough...
also,telesco has fought basically no one since roy jones and has a draw with journeyman ray berry....
you know what,i talked myself out of telesco.....i`m going to buy out of telesco with harmon at even money.....if harmon wins,break even....if telesco wins,a very small payday.....
damn,based on my analysis,harmon looks like the play...lol...i`m glad i played it safe...
looking forward to june 5th...i think that verno phillips at +240 is a value....he`s been hot...i know ouma is a champion waiting to happen...but,he was knocked down 3 times and stopped by a 10-16 guy earlier in his career....and i saw him fade badly vs angel henandez...he was lucky to get the decision....
phillips has now seen ouma once....he`s as hot as anybody......tremendous stamina.....
+240?.....i`ll take the shot....well worth the wager....at the very least,we may get to see the fight of the year...
