Odds went from +600 yesterday to +450 today.
I layed $50 on Holy to win at +600 and $50 on Holy to win by decision at +1200, seems like free money to me....
Ouch, what a ripoff. Everything that is sad and wrong with boxing all rolled into on BS decision, I would say this would further discredit the sport in the US but no one really watches anymore anyway due to BS like this.....
#1 Valuev is big and slow and doesnt move well, only guys to ever give Holy trouble are those that refuse to stand in front of him.
#2 Holy is literally fighting for his life, a win her buys him a few more years on easy street, a loss brings him that much closer to the poor house, that has to motivate him. This win could lead to another big pay day which may finally allow him to retire
#3 There is a reason they call it gambling, but this is a live underdog if I have ever seen one.

You son are crazy then.
Holyfield has less chance than Jones did against Calzaghe.

i've been gambling for a few years now. i've lost a lot of money over those few years. i'm actually about even on the year thanks to the new york giants.
all i'll say about that line is this: there's a reason why those odds are so stacked in your favor.
I'd love Holy to do it, then hopefully he'd retire. Holy at his peak would've dealt with Valuev the same way he did Foreman - feel him out first few rounds when he was at his most dangerous, then when he started to slow/tire, he moved in and out quicky with his combos.
Holy ain't capable of that now. I fear the worst.
Says +500 now. That's 5 to 1 odds you get if you bet on Holyfield. On the other hand, if you bet on Valuev, the crooks will only give you 1 to 8 odds. Nice spread. They can't lose.
Like casino owners bookies are businessmen, not gamblers. It's the punters who 'win' or 'lose', not the bookies.
