Canelo Odds and Floyds Possible Mistake
I think a bet of odds of +240 on Canelo is reasonable for the following reason:
Mayweather is feeling the Ghost-of-Manny-Pacquo from the night Manny retired Oscar De LaHoya with hand speed described by Jim Lampley as "blinding." Mayweather has dodged Manny for years now, and he hears the criticism.
I think this may make a difference if it appears Canelo is having to chase him. I think he's going to want to prove he can go more mano-a-mano with Canelo than people believe, and that could end Floyd. That hunch enough to make me feel +240 makes sense.
OBTW, anybody recomend an online book to bet the fight? In in the Midwest

just watched the guerrero/mayweather fight, well the first 6 rounds
i used to think trout would give mayweather serious problems, but now I feel that Floyd would easily dominate him, due to the fact that Floyd can easily take away a southpaws (who has no hand speed, like guerrero and trout) jab. Trout throws one of the laziest jabs I've ever seen in recent memory, and Floyd will obliterate your face with pullcounter hooks like he did to guerrero
IMO a southpaw will never beat floyd, at least not a southpaw who's looking to try and jab his way in, and ironically this is something pacquiao doesn't do, which is why I still feel that would be a great fight due to how unorthodox manny is
