The “Problem” is Back in Action

Posted by GameSetMatch on 15th February 2013

Adrien “The Problem” Broner returns to action February 16th in Atlantic City, New Jersey to take on British and European Union lightweight champion Gavin Rees. The will be his first defense of his WBC lightweight title. Adrien Broner comes in as a favorite with 1/33 odds in this title affair. Broner’s record stands at 25-0 (21 KO’s) with five straight knockouts in his last five fights. Coming in as a 1/8 favorite to win by KO, TKO or disqualification only solidifies Broner’s dominance as one of the top lightweights in the world. Adrien has won by knockout in rounds eight, five, four, three and one his last five fights. In this upcoming fight, rounds four, five and eight are at 8/1 for Broner to finish Rees. While round one has bookmakers at 12/1 and round three at 9/1. Some view him as the next Floyd Mayweather Jr. but he still has a lot to prove. When he steps up his quality of opponents and makes it on to the top ten pound for pound list, then people will start considering him a world-class fighter.

Most view this title fight as “The Problem” show. His opponent Gavin Rees is not giving much credit, the bookmakers that have him at a 12/1. With a record of 37-1-1 (18 KO’s) it seems that Rees does not possess the same power as Broner. In Rees’s last five fights he has three knockouts, one unanimous decision and one technical draw. Betting line for Rees to win by knockout is 20/1, decision is 28/1 and draw comes in at 40/1. Rees has a lot of work ahead of him and including a reach and height disadvantage against Broner. The predictability of the title fight is totally unknown which will make it hard for sports bettors to decide on who to place their cash. Nowadays it isn’t actually too hard to do research before placing a bet thanks to the prevalence of the internet within our society. Online bookmakers and casinos alike have really made the most of the internet and particularly smartphones which allow you to place a bet wherever you are. Sites like www.iPhonecasino.ca offer a range of games that is similar to that of any land-based casino and they also offer sports-themed slots games with a fun twist – check out the boxing themed “Foighting Fish” to see what we mean. If you aren’t a fan of the slots then you can have fun playing roulette, poker and many more of these games that are won more by skill than luck. Online casinos create a fun atmosphere where you have the choice of choosing games that favor you and your odds and could sometimes be a safer bet given the unpredictability of boxing. Just take a look at the fight between Mike Tyson and Buster Douglas. As a huge underdog Douglas knocked out favorite Mike Tyson in the 8th round in one of the biggest upsets of all time.

Owens Arrives

Posted by Decker on 29th July 2010

Getting Terrell Owens will bring the Cincinnati Bengals to new heights. After getting beyond embarrassed by the Jets in the playoffs, the Bengals had to make some moves. For whatever reason, Owens was getting dismissed by most of the league. Yes, he was a problem on the 49ers and Eagles. He started to settle down on the Cowboys, and got unfairly released because Romo and Witten clearly run that offense. And he did fine on the Bills, but had arguably the worst quarterback in the league throwing to him. During that time, he did not vocally complain like he would have in the past.

Everyone dismissed Randy Moss when he was on the Raiders, but then Moss had an amazing season once he left that bad team. Well, the same can happen with Owens. He may not be the Owens of the past, but getting 1,000 yards is not out of the realm of possibility. Hopefully there are enough balls to go around for him and Chad Ocho Cinco. This was a good signing that other teams may end up regretting, especially since it came at a cheap price.

Undefeated Bearcats rise to No. 14

Posted by GameSetMatch on 21st September 2009

Things had gone so smoothly for the University of Cincinnati Bearcats during their first two games that they had yet to face a deficit.

Everything they tried on offense seemed to work and their defense was rarely put in a tough spot.

That all changed Saturday night at Oregon State when the Bearcats trailed, 6-0, early in the game because the offense was having a difficult time getting untracked before a raucous crowd a long way from home.

But the Bearcats did what they had to do. They pulled together, relied on their defense for the first time this season, made the offensive plays when they had to, and flew home in the early hours of Sunday morning with an impressive 28-18 victory over the Beavers, who had been ranked No. 24 in the USA Today coaches’ poll.
