How much credit can you really give a 4-1 favorite ?

C'mon, man. Y'all hootin' and hollerin' as if the unthinkable happened, there's a reason for those odds being so wide.

I personally don't give any props to someone who is that big of a favorite. How can you, if you're a huge favorite, it means they expect you to put on a dominating performance.

Ask Tyson that after he lost to Douglas.

Yeah but in the same time Mayweather would be a big favorite against much of anybody outside Pacquiao.

[Rick Grimes]

Just shows he's the best in the sport when he was such a big betting favourite over the P4P #3.

[Kobe B Bryant]

depends.

was that 4-1 underdog almost 40 years old too?

[djsygo]

huh? he earned that status, he always the favorite. Odds were even higher for Tyson vs Buster Douglas and you know what happened. This is boxing anything can happen and its not easy to always rise to the occasion.

Im starting to think Floyd isnt getting his props until he fights a Klitchko. Or a GorillaDog.

Its not the fact he won..its how he won

That's true, and that shows how good Phony is. But, dude, you can't forget about his "ducking ways". I can't fault him for fighting the likes of a past prime De La Joto or Flattened, those two bring in a ton of $$$$.

But, there's a reason why the critics have been harsh on him for his choice of opponents all throughout his career.

can't really judge it on the betting odds. Anyway its how he did it. He dominated Mosley who was on everyones top 5 p4p list.
