Saul Alvarez -245 (implies a 71.01% chance of Canelo winning). Miguel Cotto +175 (implies a 36.06% chance of Cotto winning). Just curious as to what people think of the betting odds, and the fight outcome. Personally, I favor Canelo and view -245 as decent, but not great, value.
i favor canelo aswell i think the odds are about right. i did not think cotto would beat geale the way he did or martinez (though i stand by my claim that martinez was injured and a shell of his former self)
Agree on both. Sergio was a gimp. I expected significantly more from Geale, Cotto blew my expectations away. I try not to take anything away from the victor, but neither felt 100% genuine (Geale looked shot to pieces and the catch-weight didn't help in that regard).
Was hoping it'd be closer to evens to make some money with Canelo. Still good enough to put a good sized punt on Canelo
I doubt Canelo has fought anyone who boxes and hits as hard as Cotto. This could be and I think it will be , Cotto's defining moment.
I like Canelo, but Cotto might be too fast for him. Canelo is pretty slow sometimes. I could see Cotto winning this fight by moving around and scoring.
Terrific fight fans fight.Cotto continues to be blasting his opponents away lately which makes this a very fascinating event.Go Cotto!
Cotto will win this. He's a much better boxer and Canelo does not apply enough pressure to break Miguel down. Cotto UD
if cotto can get past the 1st 4 rounds I think he stops canelo late. canelo tends to gas out after those first few rounds, or take rounds off. I think cotto with roach stop him late.
I personally like both of these fighters and will be happy with a good, fairly scored match. While I would like to see Cotto win this to top off his career, betting-wise I have favored Canelo all along and I think 2 to 1 is about right.
