    How come Cottos bet odds aint moving?, its actually getting worse

    One reason is his backers arent putting money where their mouth is.

    Another is maybe we dont know something

    I thought this fight would be a pick em by tonight. I'm frankly amazed

    Probably because the majority of the Cotto fans are broke.

    I know that's the case by me.

    Cotto fans aren't what I'd consider to be high rollers. I'd bet the majority of the betters are pasty white dudes putting the money on the hottest fighter in the sport today.

    No offense to any fellow pasty white dudes.

    High rollers aren't the only ones that move the odds. Small bettors numbering in the thousands can do it too.

    Well, I am not so sure Cotto can win this one, but I am really hoping so. But I will explain you the sad true about the odds. Most people putting money down are americans. As you well know, the media control people's mind in this country. And lately, americans love everything but their country. That is why all money and jobs are going to hell. The American patriotism lasted about 2 years after 9-11. In this fight, Cotto is the american. So, they will go for the other guy, the media guy. Damn Liberals!

    BTW, I am almost 36y/o and have never bet on anything.

    Ya know the sad thing is I'm having a hard time telling if this is a great comedy post or a sad serious post. ESB has done wrecked my rational thought capacity.

    This is simple... Manny has the media and also the majority of celebrities/stars backing him up. He defeated the most popular man in boxing DLH and follow by defeating the most popular European fighter Hatton. There is no surprise why the difference on the odds between him and Cotto. Cotto has a real good fan base, it's just Manny has the ones with money backing him up.

    It has been going down for the past week now. I'm not a Cotto fan, but I will take the plus 160 in this fight.
