    Mijares at +575???

    Forbes at +1000

    Here's my favorite

    <TABLE class=oddstable cellSpacing=2 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR class=even><TD class=date-time>7-Jun
    10:59 PM</TD><TD class=number title="Active Lines">490
    491</TD><TD class=teams title="WILLIAMS D
    Quintana C">Williams Danny
    Quintana Carlos
    </TD><TD class=lines_c4 title="">-160
    +130
    </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

    Danny Williams should destroy Quintana:lol:

    I think you mean Paul Williams.

    Quintana would have a pretty difficult time with the weight difference against Danny. :lol:

    I would probably take that. It's not as good as the Williams fight though. :lol:

    Forbes at +1000 is throwing away money.

    Mijares at +575 is ridiculous. They have his opponent wrong, but he's supposed to be fighting Alexander Munoz. I think Mijares should be the favorite in that fight.

    Here's another one worth looking at:

    <table class="oddstable" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"><tbody><tr class="odd"><td class="date-time">5-Jul
    8:59 PM</td> <td class="number" title="Active Lines">494
    495</td> <td class="teams" title="Holt K Torres R">Holt Kendall
    Torres Ricardo
    </td> <td class="lines_c4" title=""> n/a </td> <td class="lines_c4" title=""> -325
    +250
    </td></tr></tbody></table>This looks more like what you would have expected before Holt fell apart in their first fight. Even if you want to go Holt, I think it should be closer.

    That Torres-Holt rematch should be a good fight. Good styles clash.

    Holt looked worse on the videotape late in that fight than I was led to believe from the controversy I'd heard. If the fight would've continued it looked like he'd have had to crawl over the finish line.

    I am guessing because Valuev looked pretty good in his last fight while Chagaev looked pretty shitty. Not to say that is right or wrong but that is probably why Valuev is a fav this time.

    Valuev looked good, but Liakhovich was coming off a long, long layoff and was embarrassingly heavy.
