    Some Pac fans are starting to get creepy. They are living in a fantasy world where apparently everyone always thought Pac never have a chance in any of his fights because his opponents were too big and strong. Sorry to burst your bubble but only obsessive people like you thought that, the rest of the world, including oddsmakers knew Pac was a clear favorite in all his recent fights. Yep we have a real "underdog" here.

    Odds don't lie.

    Pac - Morales 1: Pac -120
    Pac - Morales 2: Pac -140
    Pac - Marquez 2: Pac -230
    Pac - Diaz: Pac - 600
    Pac - Hatton: Pac -215
    Pac - Cotto: Pac -220
    Pac - Clottey Pac -500
    Pac - Margarito Pac -600
    Pac - Mosley: Pac -650

    you need to realize that the odds dont always indicate what people who know boxing think, for example the odds on cotto were great because most boxing fans viewed it as a 50/50 fight.

    Cotto ,Hatton and Marquez were about the same. Cotto - Margo was 50-50. Cotto - Pac, if I'm understanding th odds correctly was 2-1 in favor of Pac. You had to put down $220 dollars to win $100

    Pac -650 where the **** are you getting these odds? Pac at best is -800 against Mosley.

    and why don't you post up the odds for the first Barrera fight and the Oscar fight. Selective Memory??

    This is completely FALSE! At least check your facts first. Cotto was almost a 3-1 dog.....let me say that again for you almost a 3-1 dog in his fight with Pac.

    Hell bro, even if you don't bet you should have got this info from the fight itself because Merchant commented on it specifically. He said, "Boxing scribes and experts view the fight as 50-50 where the odds makers have Pac a big favorite in the fight."

    actually, you are proving his first statement which is "the odds dont always indicate what people who know boxing think"

    Depends on who you think are the experts. A lot of people in boxing especially Vegas, the gamblers believe the oddsmaker are the experts. Being correct %80 of the time I agree with them. Now Lennox Lewis is a great former HW champ and all but when he said this was a 50-50 fight I didn't believe him or think he was an expert in that department.

    Pac was smaller but favored in every fight but De La Hoya. The people that favored Hatton or Cotto did so because of size but that didn't mean that Pac wasn't any less favored to win.
