Ok this actually happens to my friend not so long ago, he is going on a boxing match and he will bet for the heavy favorite, then suddenly an unknown guy whisper to him, that the fight is going to be fixed and he supposedly heard it from the favorite to win, locker room, are you going to listen to that and bet for the underdog.

What's your take?
Actually fixing matches are not just in boxing matches, many sports games are manipulated for the benefit of a person. even big games have been involved in fixing scores / fixing matches, especially boxing matches that are not highlighted in television, of course there will be prone of manipulation. If someone offers me a fixing match in boxing game, I'll see who sells it first, whether he is trustworthy or not.

What's your take?

This could possibly happen in any sport. No one actually knows what happens before the start of any match. What is suspicious is why would a random guy tell you that. It is difficult to listen to hearsay or something that he could have heard because of eavesdropping, or the one who told you could be making it up to mess up with your head before bettig. It depends on you who to believe when betting.

If that was a horse racing i would pick the longshot since fixing in racing are true in my country but i didn't that happens in boxing too. Anyway if that happens i will just cancel my bet since i really don't know if the stranger tells the truth or he's just fooling other gamblers that the fight will be rigged so, that the other competitor will have bets and many money will return to casino.

What's your take?

My action will depend on who this person who tells that is.
If he is a reliable or I know that he knows then I would change my bet. At least, I would place 2 bets for both results and make profit in both ways without any real stress.

If you are just an ordinary person, you would not know if the fight is fix or not, especially if its a popular fight where there's big money at stake.
Just don't take it seriously and go with your guts, that's what we do as a gambler and we need to be clever all the time.

When analyzing the fight, always consider a possibility that the game could be fix and what I learned is I don't bet on the heavy favorites as when most money are in that favorite, there's a chance an upset will happen.

Probably I will cancel my bet if thats the scenario. Fixed matches are indeed happening in any sports category nowadays. I might not gonna listen to a stranger but probably will have a second thought on whether he's telling the truth or not. Its nothing new when you heard such controversy in a boxing match. It even happened on the biggest event, if some of you remember the fight between Pacquiao and Horn. Though, it wasnt really called a fixed match, but the result was rigged. So, how much more on local match?

Most likely yes because in gambling everything isn’t possible if money is involved.though there’s a doubt trusting people you don’t really know but sometimes these people are the one who will bring you fortune specially in cheating like what you have mentioned.but what I wanna asked is what is the result of the fight?since it’s already happen so does the result favor your friend?or did he follow what the whisperer told him?your story is a little bit short and the result wasn’t mentioned.but for me i will follow my instincts because this will risk my hard earned money and whatever the result is still I am the one who will suffer.i am wondering how did your friend reacted when the whisper comes her ear?well I might think that he was shocked and confused that very moment?

The moment you have a second thought about where you are going to put your bet, you already lost. You don't want to listen to a stranger that randomly walks towards you and say something like that, most of the time it is just a bluff or he is just making fun of you, and if he successfully get into your mind, then you are messed up. So if you are having a hard time deciding where to bet, because you have second thoughts, please don't bet your money, I'm 100% sure you are going to lose that bet.

Go to another game and place your bet on something you are sure about, so you will not regret anything you do in the end.

It's just plain stupid, to be honest. And i think people aren't dumb enough to place bets based on the suggestion of a complete stranger. That just won't make sense. I agree. Sometimes, a person's intuition can save him from losing a lot. I think it's a wise choice to follow your instincts. Having second thoughts or hesitation is your instincts already telling you not to push through with what you're about to do.

Nothing’s impossible in gambling because people inside is full of greed people so whispering a fix outcome can be put in effect

I remember wayback when I am still playing Horse Race ,there are one senior employee inside the company the giving us advice feeds in which horse will win in specific race and know what?its 80-90% accurate so if they can do this in Horse racing that has 8-10 runner then how easy they make for boxing that has 2 fighters only?

It's likely they have "whisperers" in games

While chatting in sofascore room you will find plenty of whisperers commenting live that this match is sold, X had sold this match to Y. But as soon as the results are near they are offline and we never hear from them. Frankly i would ignore such whisperers.
Those are scammers and we cannot find anything positive from them,so try to analyze first of the whisper coming from random people that we just met that time

What's even funnier is that whisperers are coming from all sides. One whispers this and the other whispers that. It is always my experience that in an arena full of people, one stranger will whisper his prediction in your one ear while in another someone loudly predicts with a claim of an insider info that the opponent will come out the winner. Everything will always be confusing. At the end of the day, the best way is to stick to your analysis and make sure it is based on something solid.

By the way, if that senior employee inside that horse race company will not stop that leak whispering, he'll surely be looking for a job really soon.

LOL no. Why do you think some guy is telling random strangers about this? It's likely they have "whisperers" in games like this trying to sway the way some bettors would bet.
Yeah right and besides how reliable a RANDOM person that will whisper you and may risk you money betting  tips from untrusted person

What's your take?
I won't listen to that. I believe that every athlete/player has dignity and won't be easily get blinded by bribery. Thus, I won't change my mind in placing my bet to my desired player/athlete regardless of what that unknown guy told to us/me. I'm not placing bet to a player that I don't know perhaps that's why I'm able to say this. I might be wrong but my perspective in sports betting won't change until I've experienced anomaly to atleast a single game.

We have the same perspectives on this matter. Aside from that, that person is a nobody to you, so why should it affect on your decision? For all we know, they are just random planted individuals to spread something negative for their own gain. We don't know their intentions why they are doing such act. I will place my bet for the boxer that I know will win the game and not influence by just random stranger. If I am betting, it means I know the sport and confident about my decision. My money, my bet! Simple as that.

Nice counter if you have heard someone doing this. But this has never happened to me, I've heard about this but it's offshore and AFAIK there's someone that even posted here before with a basketball league somewhere on US but it's not NBA. I can't remember those information that he has given but it's clear that it's a fixed match base on what he said. And coming from someone who you don't even know? a total stranger will tell you about a fix match? kind of difficult to believe but if the organizers find it out, the athletes would be fined heavily.

What's your take?
Although there could be a chance that the unknown guy which informed your friend about the boxing fight to be fixed may be lying but a situation like this happened sometime in the sports game and if I am your friend I will follow my heart while I place big bet on my previous decision and place a small amount bet on the underdog which the unknown guy said he's going to win.

What's your take?
I wouldn't trust the words of a man I don't even know and would bet on a heavy boxer. I understand your friend was analyzing the outcome of the match and changing his choice because of the stranger's opinion is foolish.

Specifically, I don't think the friend is foolish by follow the strangers opinion in the change of the bet. Come to think of this; if you have been close to friends with similar mindset when it come to gambling. I have been around many friends who have helped me with my bet  changed and I worn. How many times do you place a bet and worn? I mean, on your own bet placement. No man is an island, we all depends on each other for information. When they whisper it into your ear, kindly make another bet to support your initial bet placement.

Its a matter or risk though since there would be always two outcomes with your choices its either you would follow your guts or you would follow others suggestions or things been said.

Bet according to your choices and your guts and don't ever tend to listen up others choices because it will just end up for you to regret if the outcome oppose into you.
