    RJJ A 3-1 underdog

    I read Roy Jones is a 3-1 underdog this weekend. Is he that far gone or is his opponent a force? I saw Anthony fight to a draw on showtime a while back. He has heart but a 3-1 favorite.

    Vegas doesn't fall for the names of fighters or the hype. They know what they're doing. Good odds.

          I'm sure you misread and he is actually a 3-1 favourite. There is no way Vegas has Roy Jones Jr. as an underdog going into this fight. Especially when he has the Trinidad clash hanging in the balance if he doesn't win.

              I want Roy to win even though I'm not really a fan of his. I've never seen Hanshaw fight.

                Yea Roy has Tito in his sights to put him back in everybody's mind and don't forget that Calzaghe hasn't found a dance partner in the fall, maybe he and Frank Warren are waiting to see what happens with this fight, and to see if they really want to take a chance fighting a shot fighter in Roy, wow, Roy a 3-1 underdog, never thought I'd see the day....

                  god damn, you people need to start actually reading the aricles, and not just the headlines.

                  the 3-1 odds is a reference to what Roy is up against this weekend - his PPV competing against an HBO triplehealder. His fight up against 3 welterweight fights.

                  I don't know what the actual odds are on this fight, but I seriously doubt Roy is a 3-1 underdog, if even an underdog at all.

                    I just checked the odds and they are as follows:

                    Roy -225
                    Tony +175

                    They were hard to find, tho, as not many sites are taking bets on this fight.
