    I've already got money on Floyd Decision at 4/7. Better than the odds I got on Canelo. I plan on putting more on depending where the odds go. I'll also put a few hundred on Floyd by KO which was at 6/1. I would not put money on Pac until the odds got to about 20/1.

    Yes I will be betting the max on PBF on Bovada. I'll be paying for my cruise with my winnings.

    I just got a refresh on the odds. +500 for Mayweather by KO. +600 for Pac by KO. So Vegas Sees a Mayweather KO about a 17% chance and more likely than Pac.

    But really interesting are the round odds. They have equal odds of a first round KO (+5000) but after that, Floyds odds are greater in every round. Pac stays +5000 til round 6 but never goes less than +4000. Floyd drops to +3000 by round 8. So at least odds makers see a Floyd KO in late rounds 25% more likely.

    Do you think Floyd would be that upset if he was 47-0-1? Still has the zero and a whole boat load more cash coming his way in a possible rematch. I'm not throwing any possibility out. This is boxing after all.

    I would expect them to be around equal for KO. They're only a few percent apart in KO%. Maybe because Floyd has an iron chin compared to Pac.

    My guess is the oddsmakers are accounting for Floyd's defense but they also think Manny gets worn down faster than Floyd since Floyd's odds improve faster over the rounds.

    I gamble on boxing quite a bit but Im not touching this one.

    When you bet on a fight, you are fully invested in "your guy" winning.

    I just want to watch this and enjoy the biggest fight of a generation without having any skin in the game

    Im gonna throw down a couple hundred on Floyd closer to the fight. I want Pac to win so that way it'll soften the blow if Floyd beats him :yep

    I work at an ibank. We're trained to turn off the emotional brain when evaluating things that have to do with money. ;)

    That's funny. I should think about doing the same.
