    7/4? ****ing hell, that's tremendous value. If i'd seen that i would have lumped on. I genuinely don't see any other outcome in this fight.

    Always bet against the fighter that you want to win, it softens the blow when they lose.

    I would only bet on Floyd by KO. But not going to bother.

    I couldn't believe it when they put it up, it started dropping quickly when everyone started getting on it, down to 4/5 within a few days and they've got it at 1/2 now.

    I would say 1/2 is about right. It would be a big shock if Floyd stopped him, he's barely stopped anyone in years now and Mosley has a good chin and has only ever been properly hurt against Forrest who was just wrong for him and hit harder at the weight than PBF i would say. I just think Mosley is too far past his best to beat a fighter like Floyd. Floyd is hard to hit cleanly and even if Mosley does land, i'm not sure he has enough 1 punch power for it to end the fight. He hits hard, but more so in combinations than in single shots. I just don't see Mosley being able to do enough work to outpoint Mayweather either.

    20-1 is good value, i don't see it happening but 20-1 looks quite a big price.

    He'll make £100 mate, £5 multiplied by 20, plus he'd get his £5 stake back.

    Oh, I'm gonna win so much (real) dough off people who just have a passing interest in boxing, and think Mosley is gonna win...

    ...Mayweather by clear cut UD.

    If this were the Mayweather/Pac fight I'd bet large on Floyd like 4 figures. But even though I'm confident he'll beat Mosely, I just got this feeling that there's gonna be some kinda Zab Judah, Riddick Bowe style disturbance (like the parachuting man lol) or something weird is gonna happen... Idk why lolol.
