    I was generous and voted for 20%, but realistically, I only give Alvarez a 10-15% chance to account for fluke KO or robbery win.

    Betting on Floyd here at anything under -400 is as favorable a risk/reward proposition as you'll find. At -270, it's a steal.

    The only wild card to look out for is judging shenanigans if this goes the distance- it would not surprise me if they jobbed Floyd the same way they did Pac against Bradley. Not at all. Just imagine the business for the rematch so Floyd could "set things straight".

    I think this is 50/50. I can't put my finger on it but Floyd seems, for a lack of a better word; "shook"

    I know that's a strong word to use but something is off about this fight, like I said I can't put my finger on it

    Vegas currently has Alvarez by decision @ +550.

    You do the math...

    That's not a bad hedge for those betting on Floyd (which is the smart move IMO). Consider it "robbery insurance".
