Floyd Mayweather Jr. loves to gamble.This is the 1st time I see FLoyd bet on Boxing. He bet $325,000.00 on the under 9.5 rounds at -140 to win $232,145.85 Is it professional to bet on your own sport? How ironic that FLoyd made money on a top rank fighter.
Good choice and I honestly see alot of simalirities in Gamboa n Mayweather. Gamboa is the better fighter but JuanMa is the draw with Top Rank. Just like Floyd was the better fighter but De La Hoya was the draw. Gamboa is a young confident skillful boxer that has had a great amatuer background like Floyd.
Gamboa will not resign with Top Rank due to this 2nd rate citizen bull****.
Funny thing is, betting that much in Vegas is a bad idea. He will owe like 75,000$ in tax on that win.
Im pretty sure has his tax man handle all of that at the end of the year. I doubt he pays any tax on his gambling winning/losses. Unless he is that talented even in gambling.
how do you know its his alone....how do you know he and his homeboys did'nt chip in to bet that much....floyd is a big bullsh1tter man, that alone says theres a big chance he's bullsh1tting again.....lol
LOL you are pathetic, why are you so envious?
nice. but even if i had 50% of the worlds money, i still wouldnt bet that kind of dollar. maybe he is trying to make the purse he would get to fight pacquiao without actually fighting him?
1. It is "professional" since he knows more about boxing. It's probably better than he betting on say baseball. :D Not sure about the ethical aspect. Is there a rule explicitly against it?
2. What makes you think Gamboa will be a better draw elsewhere besides Top rank?
1. Floyd bets alot on half-time lines in basketball. Its his Money and he can do whatever with it. Is it professional? I would understand either side of the argument. And No there isn't a rule as long as No cheating is involved.
2. Gamboa should be a draw. His talent and passion prove it. Fighting more dangerous fighters on smaller events compared to Juanma he needs another promoter. Being Cuban doesn't help his popularity. He will waste his prime with Top Rank and once his contract is gonna expire than Bob will put him in a good fight. Even after having a great win HBO, Top Rank, and Juanma camp send Lopez in there to get some Media attention. If this fight ever happens I'm taking Gamboa.
wait he lost money
if he betterd around 300,000 and only won 230,000 he lost like 70,000 dollaras
HAHA. I'd like to be this guy's bookie if he ever considers to bet.
On another note, I wish Floyd would post his losses too.
why do ppl think sports betting is like gambling??? it isnt...i mean yea its hard to guess what will happen in any event. but with that said, you can make very informed bets and make money off of them. hes not throwing as much money away as you think.
I've been betting on boxing for 6 years now and I have ended each year with more money than I put in the account to begin it.
The reason people lose money is because they feel compelled to bet on everything and dont have the patience to wait for only the best opportunities.
You've also gotta have the balls to put down the big bet when the moment comes.
I had $1500 on Andre Dirrell to beat Arthur Abraham and he was a 2.25-1 underdog. I even had $100 on Dirrell to win by KO, TKO or DQ at 16-1 odds.
All told I won about 5 grand on that fight.
Also, had the balls to put $200 on Zuri Lawrence to beat a 44-1 Polak named Albert Sosnowski at 10-1 odds on Friday Night Fights a few years back.
That worked out as well.
Sometimes it doesn't... for instance I had $500 on Maidana to beat Khan by KO at 5.5-1 odds. Didn't work out but I would do it again in a heartbeat if I got the same odds.
This guy will go broke VERY soon. I guess thats good for the Floyd fans, he'll be back in the ring for another tune-up

for all of u guys that thinks he has a gambling problem, i guess he does, but from the bets ive seen him make, they are very informed, safe bets. im sure he may lose a little but he probably dont lose that much. u wanna lose money, bet on football...if i remember correctly, floyd doesnt.
