I am old school, I use a bookie. Bodog is where I usually get odds from though, they seem to be pretty inline with other odds. I heard that they have low betting limits though, so that would suck. There are tons though, and many of them I have no clue about so be careful and if you sign up for one make sure they take boxing bets because not all do.
BTW odds accord to Betus.com (I was looking for you but there are to many I know nothing about).
Pavlik -900 Rubio +600 Over/Under 8.5 rounds +175 over -220 under
Cotto -2000 Jennings +900 Over/under 5.5 rounds (lol) -145 over +115 under
Bodog odds
Pavlik -800 Rubio +475 Over/Under 8.5 rounds +165 over -205 under
Cotto -1300 Jennings +700 Over/under 7.5 rounds +200 over -250 underLast edited by The Gambler1981; 02-16-2009, 07:05 PM.Comment

I really doubt Michael Jennings gets smashed up like everyone says.
From what I've seen from him and what I've read about him, he is made from stern stuff. He also has a tidy defence, and decent handspeed.
He loses though.......obviously.Comment

No, that's kinda disrespectful. They are not exactly outright "bums", they are just a couple of dudes trying to earn a living, and in their own right, they are fairly solid fighters.
As for the poll, I voted Jennings.

From British Paper: News Of the World
WBO title challenger Michael Jennings says the tragedies in his life will spur him onto victory against Miguel Cotto on Saturday.
Jennings saw two brothers and a close friend die at an early age and the memory of their passing will serve as motivation for him when he steps into the ring in Madison Square Garden on February 21.
The Chorley fighter (34-1, 16 KOs) has been at the top of the domestic weltwerweight scene for three-and-a-half years but fully accepts he is taking a big step up in class against former two-weight champion and pound-for-pound contender Cotto.
However, Jennings has faced such heartache outside of the ring that he is nothing but positive about getting the chance to meet the Puerto Rican idol.
"My life is filled with tragedies," Jennings told the News of the World. "I must have a black cloud above my head.
"Even when I get a world title chance it’s against bloody Cotto! No worries, though. To be the best you have to beat the best.
"People are writing me off completely, but anything’s possible. He’s like any other man — he has two hands, two legs and a head.
"My parents, Margaret and Raymond, have had it really hard. When I beat Cotto I’m going to buy mum a new house — although knowing her she won’t want one."
Before he flew to America Jennings took the time to pay his respects to his brother Stephen who died of leukhemia, Raymond who died of a heroin overdose tribute and Ned who was killed in a car accident last year.
"On the day of each fight, or as close as I can if I’m fighting away, I visit the graves of our Stephen and our Raymond," Jennings added.
"People don’t realise [drug addiction] is an illness like alcoholism. A lot of people don’t see it like that and think you’re just a smack head. I’m still proud of him.
"With Ned it was mad. When I found out he’d been killed it was devastating."
Another memory that Jennings holds close is the time he and Michael Gomez were stabbed by unknown assailants when out in Manchester with his brother Dave.
"Two lads on mopeds started shining their lights on us," Jennings said. "We just kept walking and thought nothing of it.
"Next thing I felt something in my back and I thought I’d been punched. I turned round and there were these guys with helmets.
"I was ready to say, ‘Let’s have it’, but before I could do that I was covered in blood.
"Before I knew it Gomez had been slashed and my brother was hit on the head with a truncheon. To this day I don’t know what it was about.
"The doctors thought the stabbing had punctured my lung because the knife went in a couple of inches, but I was fine after having eight stitches."
Gomez nearly died after complications in hospital following the incident which will be immortalised in film when a movie of his life comes out. A happy ending may have to be rewritten if Jennings can upset the odds next week.

Jennings, and it's purely because he at least has a shot at cracking Cotto's jawComment
