    I noticed on Betfair there is 2 ways of putting Mayweaher to win a decision,, either on points or a dec/tech decision.. So im assuming if you do him to win by points, and there is a headbutt and the winner is decided on a technical decision, Im assuming you would loose while if you do dec/tech decision your covered??

    Poor odds of only 1/2 which is 1.50 while on betfair you can get like 1.65

    Yeah i done £60 quid on Mosley at 11/1 so if it comes in £660 profit

    but £800 on Mayweather to win on points = £520 profit

    So if Mayweather wins I have won £460 profit and If Mosley wins I guess im down £140, but the Mosley bet is more of a cover up to minimize my looses, but then again if one these fighters gets flatened im done!

    Same as a Mosley KO/TKO in fact.

    I think I'll keep an eye on the in-play. Hoping Shane can take the first 2 or 3 rounds.

    I'm a little tempted to go for Shane, not thinking he will win, but if he wins the first few and Floyd starts slow, that 11/1 will move in for a round or two.

    It's win only, you're right.

    Still, some hedging still can be to that way, to some degree.

    To think, Mosley is over double the odds to beat Floyd than Hatton was.

    Had a bit of Floyd at 1.89, shortly after he was shook.

    Think he went higher than that, but wasn't quick enough.
