Mayweather was going to fight Pacquiao in March, but they couldn?t agree on the level of anti-doping testing. These two are expected to ?get it on? eventually and Brobury already has odds for the potential mega-bout with Mayweather a small -120 favorite.
Mayweather is the serious -365 favorite against Mosley, who?s putting up his WBA World Welterweight title. There?s also a prop of whether it lasts ?over? or ?under? 11.5 rounds. The ?over? is the heavy favorite there as well.
You can see why the 33-year-old Mayweather is favored. He has an unblemished record at 40-0, with 25 by knockout. He is six-time champion in five weight classes.
Mayweather had a TKO over Britain?s Ricky Hatton in December 2007. He then took almost two years off before getting a unanimous decision over Juan Manuel Marquez last September.
Mosley is 38 years-old with a 46-5 record. He last fought in January 2009, getting a TKO over the tough Antonio Margarito. He is fighting for just the third time overall in the last 30 months.
If you listen to the oddsmakers, Mayweather should win by a decision. He?s -200 for that ?final result? and +400 for a KO or TKO. Mosley is +700 to win by a decision and +750 for a KO or TKO. A draw is the most unlikely scenario at +1900.
Most people agree this would be a better fight if both were younger, and there is a rust factor on both sides. Mayweather deserves to be the favorite, but there could be a ?live dog? waiting for him the ring.
