No idea... but if Mayweather is NOT the favourite I would be very surprised. He is substantially bigger than Pacman and looked untouchable in his last fight.

But it was a staged fight and Marquez could not carry the weight. Pacquiao can, he proved that against Cotto.
I don't think Mayweather will be heavy favourite, though I do think he will be favourite. But when this fight happens, I'll bet all my points on Pacquiao. A big fight demands big risk, and this is THE big fight of my life.

Dude, you actually bet on Lacy to beat Taylor? That's a ridiculous call considering your others were reasonable.

vegas odds dont consider fighters styles they consider fighters victories and with that said i think pacquiao is actually going to be favored and i think it has already been said that pacquiao is already the early favorite.

I do not think Mayweather is substantially bigger than Pac. I think mayweather is 5-6 pounds bigger than Pac.

You do not understand how Vegas opening odds work.

What? Ridiculous...

Pacquiao opened as an 8/5 favorite already until a few thousand dollar bets came in on Floyd that made it 7/5.

Odds will be going back and forth on this one. As soon as one is an underdog, he'll have bets coming in on him and vice versa.

Come on man. Mayweather is taller, grown into 147 and has a (near?) perfect boxing physique.

Pac is a min beast who belongs at 140. Sure, he is good enough to compete with some at 147... but in terms of physiques... Mayweather has the clear advantage.

Some books already have lines out. Mayweather is the slight fav, as of now.
