Anyone throwing down some cash on this fight? I'm thinking of putting a bit on Mayweather by KO, paying $7.50. Pac by decision is $5.70, tempting too. Draw is $31.
Yeah, I'll get some of that Mayweather KO action. I don't hate Manny by decision either. Maybe a bit of both.
I'll throw down on both of those 2, prob PAC by decision with a Floyd KO cover bet. And my bad, the draw is $15.
You get better odds on that than Pac by KO. It's worth a shot trying to exploit the lack of boxing knowledge.
Seriously. The unintelligent masses seem to think this is a Mayweather by decision/Pacquiao by KO type of deal. It's the other way around if anything.
Agreed. I've said I think it goes the distance and is a close fight, but also I think it really is a fight where anything could happen. Interesting style matchup, and both represent the best fighters of each other's career.
Yes, this is true. Although out of the 4 possibilities I have to say, Mayweather getting knocked out is the hardest to imagine.
I've seen Tyson and Roy Jones knocked out. Pre-fight those scenarios seemed more unlikely than Floyd taking a nap. Anything can happen.
I HAVE to agree with this. When Jones got knocked out by Tarver...I was catatonic. I would have never saw that coming in a million years. I didn't see the tyson-Douglas fight live, but when i heard about it from my friends at school the next day I didn't believe them for a second. I had to get home and see it on the news before I accepted it. So your point is valid...anything can happen.
I have to agree with Sly that it is the hardest to envisage of the 4 scenarios, but of course anything can happen - and it is Pacquiao we're talking about here. He still has excellent handspeed and accuracy, with no startup time. His raw punching talent is some of the best of all time - Floyd WILL get tagged at some point, no doubt, I just hope it's a belter :kidcool: The thing about Floyd is he has the annoying combination of excellent defense, and pretty much excellent chin too. Unlike Roy, we've see Floyd take some meaty shots, and even get hurt, but ultimately take them very well and recover quick.
