    A lot think Holyfield will do it.

    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....

      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.

            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.

              i've been ******** 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.

                    You son are crazy then.

                    Holyfield has less chance than Jones did against Calzaghe.
