What price is McGregor to lose in the first?

28/1

[Raoul Duke III]

28/1

Seems deserving of a bet? Although Floyd probably wants to properly humilate him over several rounds.

Dear England, you are mentally ill, get help.

What price is McGregor to lose in the first?

You can't bet on somebody to lose a boxing match. That sort of indecorous behavior is most ungentlemanly.

If a civilized gentleman would instead like to wager Mayweather wins in the first, your local bookkeep might offer you 25-1.

[CHDad]

Floyd susses his opponents out for first 2/3 rounds then goes to work not getting hit and pointing his way to victory. He could well destroy Conors body and finish him somewhere in the middle of the fight. Prob the only bet I'll have if I bother is backing that.

The whole thing is a cluster fuck.

[brianmc]

I need to start a class soon, been under orders from the physio to do it for the last couple of months but haven't managed to organise it yet.

There seems to be an awful lot of classes, how do I tell a good one from a not so good one?

I'm assuming there will be a big variation in quality between instructors, class sizes and how experienced the other punters are or is it just a matter of following a fixed program?

Would need to be somewhere handy for after work somewhere between Clondalkin and Naas
Do it before or after work ? Do I need a shower after a class?

I've heard good reports from here... http://louiseorourkephysiotherapy.ie/

Mrs. Brianmc is checking it out for the first time this evening.

[Denny Crane]

I presume we're all going all in, yeah?

I know it was asked before but can't remember - going wedding present rate for a couple (cousins wedding), and does it make any difference if its fairly upmarket. €200?

[6starpool]

200-300 depending on how much ye like them. 200 is fine.

[RichieM]

I always go with €200 no matter the location.

[Ed]

I really can't wait until this boxing nonsense is over and done with. I'll of course watch the fight but there's so many cracking legit fights on the MMA side coming up in the next couple of months that this distraction is just tedious

[Hatedajacks]

Stick couple hundred on Mcgregor to have a point deducted at 5/2 and thank me later.

[Dice75]

200-300 depending on how much ye like them. 200 is fine.

Cheers, will split the difference at €250 so. Saving on accomodation as rather spend €60 on a taxi than €400 on a bed for a few hours

How much are the Pilates reformer classes running at do you know... website is not going tell until you have created an account
Their moronic password rules and failed phone number parsing made me close the page.

[Jibzzzz]

Speaking of GFs, myself and now formerly Mrs Jibzzzz decided to call it a day, a few weeks ago, after 7 years.

Bit of a shock to the system, as houses and marriage were just around the corner.

Is what it is I guess.

[ArmaniJeans]

On the subject of crazy femmes, anyone admit to watching CBB?
Sarah Harding (ex Girls Aloud singer) is certifiably insane, a genuine lock her up for observation case.

[Jibzzzz]

Big row after a holiday?

Nah we kind of knew before that but went ahead anyway. Guess we used it as a deciding factor but put shit aside and it enjoyed it anyway.

[Tar.Aldarion]

That sucks man, sorry to hear.

AJ falling in my estimation.

Although he's never enjoyed his once godlike status since he tried to persuade me that a certain HC game could never be scheduled for a Sunday....

Although I must applaud the scale of your plans. 'Houses'.

That's actually a great bet.

[Jibzzzz]

All good m8s, as time goes by feels the right choice. More time will tell.

All aboard that McGregor bet 5/2.

[dobby]

Sorry to hear that Jibbbzzz. Will have to go for pince soon

[DeadParrot]

hmmmm
No wife, no kid, I 100% take the below approach now.

And it keeps coming....
XXXX have asked if you could stay on an extra week....

Taking the piss at this stage

Sorry to hear that jibzzz. Relationships aren't easy. Better to decide now though rather than get a messy divorce or something.

[careca]

Thought you had quoted jibzzz there for min.
Lol

Yep, the address parsing is worse. Mrs. failed to sign up - you have to pay through the site. I removed all punctuation from the address in the end to get through.

From memory of a one way conversation - about €12 a class... not sure if 45 mins or an hour. I could be way off. No discounts for bulk purchases is the bit I do remember.

Legend, never knew that place existed and was struggling to keep it up in Rathfarnham. Il be signing up here post haste.

I'll warn her.

[The Situation]

City are priced tonight almost like they're the finished article title certs against a handy Everton side. They may well prove to be but until they actually start playing like it which they haven't yet under Pep, you'd have to be laying the hype.

[DeadParrot]

You been looking around?

nosing around.
Took me a while to get some semblance of an updated CV (cheers to Richie for the pointers)
Have a couple of meetings in the next week with companies/agencies and CV has gone into one or two spots.

I'll warn her.

I literally spent 40 minutes trying to beat it and gave up, I think I have a half created account that is now giving me one of those passive aggressive Its you thats fucked this up type message.

Its a good test case of how not to do a simple webform

• State is mandatory but they have helpfully given a drop down list of provinces
• Password policy is designed to force poor security
• Phone number parsing is broken
• Post Code is mandatory
• Address parsing is broken
• Probably all parsing is broken
• Mandatory to enter an email adddress for next of Kin GTFO@GFY.co.FU
• Date format if forced American

. Tried calling them but its only an answering machine the robospeak message is:
'This is an answering machine'


Still and all the same location and class times suit so I might try to call them again tomorrow

[Lord Sir Banter]

In my experience telling women that they are over reacting a tad is not a good idea.

With a straight face, tell her she is underreacting.

Stick couple hundred on Mcgregor to have a point deducted at 5/2 and thank me later.

Presumed this was odds on.
Wonder is he on any financial deductions for it though.

[shrapnel]

3/1 on sky bet

[Hooch]

Dana White has confirmed financial penalty if McGregor goes all MMA on Mayweather but as to what extent i do not know.

[Hatedajacks]

He will be deducted pts without financial penalty for dirty tactics being rough in the clinch etc not using mma moves as such.

[MrsFlushdraw]

Sorry to hear you and the missus split Jibzzzz. But it is a good thing to do this now before the houses and the marriage become reality as it is a much bigger problem then. Takes more guts to realise it just isn't right and to split that to stay in a relationship regardless.

Enjoy some peace and quiet before getting back on the hoss and enjoy being single for a while.

Would you not be concerned the dirty knacker head would be boxed off him before he can attempt such antics?

[Emmet]

Is there any way they could both lose? Ideally with some shady Don King type making off with all the loots.

One Time Boxing Gods

If McGregor knocks him out with a flying kick it's basically a double loss.

[Hatedajacks]

Would you not be concerned the dirty knacker head would be boxed off him before he can attempt such antics?

Nope i cant see him losing early .

[Solksjaer!]

Seems deserving of a bet? Although Floyd probably wants to properly humilate him over several rounds.

I'm all over that. A 1st round defeat will humilate him enough. He'll walk into a few saving the old guys energy. Get on it.

Paging Peace and Fire , paging peace and Fire.

3 mins from my house. Good choice. Be booking some soon

So the keys turned up on my computer desk, not sure how they got there.

Tis all downhill from here. Such a shame and you were such a bright lad too.

[Charlie Sheen]

For the Mayweather/McGregor fight I'll have my money on Mayweather decision @ 11/4.
I've talked myself out of completely lumping on Floyd, going to BBQ, get drunk and enjoy it.

[Lao Lao]

Surely we're well overdue an IPB beers night and out of respect for Jbizzz's recent news, we should change it to an IPB beers and strippers night?

[Strewelpeter]

Excellent view of the 10% of the eclipse we can see from here right now.
Stick two CD's together and look through the surface (not the hole) of them

[The Situation]

I've talked myself out of completely lumping on Floyd, .

Why what has changed, well aside from Floyds price getting more inexplicably attractive?

Amazing how many have got drawn in by the marketing and media shitshow and seemimgly forget the basic fact it's the greatest boxer of our generation up against an amateur. The analysis begins and ends there.

I have no logical reason, he wins baring a fight stopping injury.
I'm going to be in a house full of non gambling, very casual fight fans, drinking and eating not sure I want to have a big bet on and would rather just enjoy it (read as bottling it )

Come Friday/Saturday I may change my mind again.

What's to enjoy? It's a garbage event. This is not good sport. Only thing putting me off personally is that it's boxing so I struggle to trust in its intentions.

Can't see why not

[Charlie Sheen]

The ridiculousness of it even taking place?

It's highly likely to be a terrible fight, Mayweather taking his time to pick McGregor apart.
And everyone complaining after that Floyd took our money again.

Why would it being boxing put you off? Every sport has had fixed events before.
