    Anyone betting/put a bet on this fight? Intrigued to know what everyone's putting their money on. Also, if you have, what are the odds? Looking forward to the replies, thanks!

    Not sure if this belongs in this part of the forum. If not, my apologies.

    I don't think you can lay -480 on Floyd b/c that's just stupid. But I was very suprised to see Floyd win by Decision is +100. That's a great bet, getting the favorite to win at even money !! And we all know Floyd likes to go to the scorecard instead of trying to knock someone out. As long as the fight doesn't get stopped on cuts, looks like a WIN to me :D

    Yeah man I saw that aswell, pretty good odd's for a Mayweather decision. To be honest, this is how its going to play out in my head aswell, but im thinking a late Mayweather stoppage may be possible also. Think im going to take a visit down the bookies tomorrow.

    The odds on a Mayweather stoppage are pretty tempting, but we know how slow the guy starts so it's a risky bet.

    I'm also not sure how good Marquez's chin is and how he will react to Floyd's punches.

    See, what im thinking is Hatton took alot of crisp shot's from Floyd and kept coming forward (I know he got knocked out in the end but he did show a good chin pre-knockout), I think Marquez can take more punishment than Ricky, so im thinking it will go the full 12, which is making me slightly edging towards a decision.

    marquez was dropped by Barrera at 130 He was dropped 3 times in 1 round by Pacquiao and then dropped again in the second fight. he recovers fast but he is definatly hittable and he can be hurt. If floyd puts up a decent punch output, he'll stop him.

    I think the more time goes on the more powerful Floyd gets as well. Seems to be sitting down on punches a bit more.

    Hatton DID have very good punch resistance and maybe we saw the last of that in the Mayweather fight but it's only after that fight that Hatton's chin has gone downhill.

    Thinking about it, I think Floyd should stop him, especially since he will want to make a statement as well.

    Yeah he definetly wants to make a statement, I wouldn't be suprised by a late stoppage. If I had to say, i'd say 8th. Still split between late stoppage and a decision. I don't want to underestimate Marquez in anyway.
