    Juarez a 4-1 underdog? WTF?

    Does anyone else think these are great odds based on the second half of the first fight? Rocky almost had him in the 12th. If he lets his hands go early this time, a big if, then he could stop John late in the bout.

    Can I get a sanity check on this bet? Am I off for wanting to jump at this?

    Edit: These are the same odds that Marquez is being given against Mayweather.

    Those are pretty good odds, I would not bet a lot on the fight but hey $250 to win a grand is not to shabby considering how close the first fight was.

    I think John should be the favorite but that number seems pretty high, so it is probably worth the risk.

        2-1 sounds reasonable because he was clearly outboxed by John but did have him hurt and should be a live underdog who has a punchers chance in this fight.

          I didn't see that at all in the first fight it was very close and a draw was fair. I think John can do better though which is why I think he should be a nice favorite but at 4 to 1 are pretty wide odds and worth the risk (IMO).

            The first fight was 8 - 4 in favor of John. I don't know what the hell people that saw otherwise were watching.

            4 - 1 are great odds but he isn't going to touch John. Don't forget that John was sick for their first fight.

              Cosign. Juarez is a smaller Zab. He gonna get beat again. I just hope the judges don't **** on John like they did last time.

                I agree. I thought the fight was close and also that the decision was fair. They seemed like very wide odds to me and thought I'd check here. Thanks for the confirmation.

                  4-1 is wide but he was clearly out boxed and John should have won something like 8rds-4 sounds reasonable.

                    The odds are normal.

                    John was robbed the first time and he''kll outbox him again.
