A friend of ours recently started his boxing carreer as "Cool" Coen ten Herkel, since his first match he is known simply as "Het Monster van Mokum". Watch his fight and you will see why.(the fun starts at minute 1:35)
Hidde de Vries aka "De beuker uit Blaricum", a mutual friend, heard about the match and boasted: "Het Monster van Mokum would never dare to fight me" ! But when the Monster immediately accepted the challenge and set the date for a 14th of February Saint Valentine's Day massacre, Hidde responded: "Me and my big mouth (bummer !!!)".
Until further notice Hidde will be referred to as: "De Bla Bla uit Blaricum."
Based on this reaction, the video of "Het Monster van Mokum" , the fact that the Monster is coached by Raymond "Hallelujah" Joval , the former International Boxing Organization World Middleweight Champion, and the first round of betting, the odds have now been set.
To keep this simple (and gentlemanly) the only permissable stake is € 10,- per person.
The odds:
Monster van Mokkum 1/2
Bla Bla van Blaricum 2/1
There will be no draw allowed.
The bets at present:
Bets placed on the Monster winning: (1/2) € 10,- stake pays out 5,- plus the stake = € 15,-

All stakes to be paid before the fight, no unpaid stakes will be honored.
British odds explained: UK odds quote the net total that will be paid out to the bettor, should they win, relative to their stake.
For example odds of 5/1 imply that the bettor stands to make £100 on a bet of £20. If the odds are 1/5 the better will make £4 from a £20 stake. The bettor will also always receive their stake back, so a successful bet of £20 at 5/1 will actually pay out £120 - which is £100 plus the return of the original £20 bet.
The way to anounce fractional odds of 5/1 is to say 'five-to-one'. The way to say 1/5 is 'one-to-five' or 'five-to-one on'. It sounds better with a British accent. ;)
