Floyd by decision. Over 9.5 also. Mosley MAY get KO'd. Alvarez is capable of doing this but he may have been told to give the future hall of fame boxer a break. Mosley will fight for 4 rounds, MAYBE, then do his boxer/acting thing. Probably still better than a Hopkins abortion(PTHB). Stands for punch/tie up/head butt.

 

[Habecki]

I'm baffled by the Cotto/Mayweather line. Wasn't he cheaper against Ortiz? Mayweather is no doubt an elite fighter but his cv is suspect at best. The few real live bodies he's been in with have caused him issues. Everything I read about Cotto is positive and after exercising the demons of Margarito last fight I think you see a continuation of good things from Cotto.

Odds over 5-1 are extremely generous imo. Mayweather is not invincible as his promoters have manufactured as the truth. Cotto's better movement and workrate can lead him to a decision victory. Remember Floyd is 35 and hasn't been the most active fighter the past few years. I just don't see the easy UD here.

Lines were about the same before Floyd's odds against Ortiz came down as low as 4/1 come crunch time. Not sure what you mean by everything you read is positive about Cotto, as it should be, and the same exact thing could be said about Floyd as well. Floyd hasn't been the most active fighter, this is true, but this time he is also not coming off a 16 month layoff like he did against JMM after Hatton, or Ortiz after Shane.

dont see a knock out in mayweather cotto

cotto can make it extremely close

maybe the judges want to sent money to jail with a loss for his antics in the ortiz fight

cotto by dec and draw look good

can bet small change and win a nice amount

 

[THE_THONG]

i handicapped pulev - dimitrenko

i have it 60% dimitrenko
40% pulev

pulev doesnt throw any bodyshots, and rarely uses the uppercut, that's how eddie chambers beat dimitrenko

odds are enticing on sasha, i'll probably just take the over at -300

throw stieglitz into a parlay, he's fighting a no hoper

mosley going the distance is up to cocksucker naazim richardson, if he bet over or under

shane was begging out of the pacquiao fight, but naazim wouldnt pull the plug even though shane said he couldnt move anymore, so i think naz bet the over vs pac

vs canelo, i think naazim bet under to get the plus odds again, it's a win win, spare shane punishment from young lion and get mo money

we shall see who pulls the plug, jay nady or "oh brother where art thou" naazim

Excellent Youtube video with Dana White, Ed O Neill(the actor) and some other guy. After the UFC talk, White mentions how only in Las Vegas is justice postponed so a guy can fight in a boxing match. All about the benjamins, of course. This fight will generate big numbers, although personally I think its crap. Point being Mayweather wins, as reads the script, like it or not. Mosley loses also, as his only function is to be a high profile resume improver. These high profile orchestrations are for the benefit of promoters and PPV, to name just two.

Boxing; Villanueva/Yordan...

Boxing; Villanueva/Yordan...

OK, so Villanueva has 22 wins, 21 by KO. Yordan on the other hand has 28 wins, 22 by KO, BUT, he has gone 12 with Chris John(loss) and 12 with Celestino Caballero(loss). Only edge for Villanueva is maybe fighting on his home turf. I like Yordan at +120.

Nady and Cortez both seems to like to stop fights. I'm looking for a mad flurry by Alvarez with Mosley in the corner, not hurt necessarily, but it just looks bad, so the ref, compassionately stops it for the old man. Alvarez is a future cash cow and darling of the media so we gots to soup it up, no?

Mc Closkey/Corley prop

Mc Closkey/Corley prop

Play: Over 9.5-280. Yea, a big number, but Corley is like a turd that just won't flush.

Round prop parlay

Round prop parlay

Play:Cotto/Floyd-over 9.5-260/Corley/McCloskey-over 9.5-280. Odds like 5to 6.

Play:Alvarez wins in rounds 7-12 +423. I think Mosley's gas tank runs dry.

Thong; you are upsetting me! Mayweather's antics? Gross/flagrant head butt foul by the fucking mountain goat Ortiz. He got what his hand called for. Let me clarify this. Floyd wins, does his delayed 90 days, and the bull shit starts again with a Floyd/Manny matchup, and Cotto gets some more tattoos.

 

[THE_THONG]

i know ortiz started it

but what mayweather did was like hitting a mental kid after the mental kid apologized after barfing on a person

dougie fischer didnt pick cotto, so no jinx :0074

ola afolabi to sink caveman captain huk :SIB

LOL! Thong; you very funny guy, good analogy though!

ola afolabi to sink caveman captain huk :SIB

Do you really LOVE this or what?

 

[LordoftheLunch]

Ola looks like value at +200 BUT I dont think that it happens twice in a row for Huck to lose on the cards in GER.

hmmmmm :0003

 

[THE_THONG]

Do you really LOVE this or what?

not love, that would be too much of a premature jinx, like premature ejac... :mj07:

i like it

huck coming down in weight, afolabi's conditioning up, stronger

huck took the fight quick

lordofthelunch, what do you think about cotto-may draw?
