    Who Is The Betting Favorite : Pacquiao Or Mayweather?

    If the fight comes off, who do you think would be the betting favorite to win? *

    * Many might immediately think Mayweather is the favorite by default, but I'm taking into consideration that Manny is widely considered P4P number one and he's proven he can fight within the WW limit. He's also now listed in some sites, including Boxrec, as the Welterweight number one after defeating Cotto and that fact would probably effect the betting odds.. But is that enough to make him the favorite over Mayweather?

    Honestly, I'd be shocked if vegas made Floyd the underdog. It'd be either 50/50 or Floyd with a slight +.

        You can't make a defensive master who puts ppl to sleep the underdog, thats nonsense. Who has Pacquiao fought that has the defense of Mayweather???

          I'd be surprised if Floyd was the underdog but the way these odds are calculated take into consideration a lot of factors so it's not impossible I guess.

            It would start out about even, but the casual boxing fans will make Pacquiao the favourite.

                You know you could reverse that and ask who Floyd has fought that had the similar traits to Pac? Right....

                    Pacquiao should be favored to win.

                    Although i hope he isn't.
