    I also think THurman will win. But you never know with this type of fight. Chaves is 31 I believe and will retain all his power and stamina for the weight class. He's a small 147 so he won't be starving himself. Thurman on the otherhand is a huge 147, and that should be an advantage but sometimes it back fires.

    Plus, Chaves power can always turn a fight around.

    It's pissing me off that I can't bet on this fight anywhere. Ridiculous.

        Alright, cool. I've been wondering why the hell it's not up yet. What do you think the odds will be like? I know I shouldn't, but I want to put a fat bet on Thurman.

        There are some other good bets out there, like Floyd beating Canelo, the bookies are surprisingly giving Canelo a chance. Betting floyd beats Canelo by decisions has excellent odds. FLoyd is definitely going to decision Canelo, so I'm going in on that one for sure.

        Even Pacquiao koing Rios has great odds.

          They haven't really been tested so it's too early to rate their chins. I'm pretty sure that we'll know more about the way they can take a punch on saturday. This fight will tell us a lot about Keith Thurman.

            That's early odds in different bookies

            No method of victory yet, but I like Thurman by KO.
            Canelo/Floyd seems clear cut in my book, but there's boxing politics and fans.... so not as clear as it may be.

            Pacquiao by KO... love it... especially late KO

              That's true. But i really think Chaves style of fighting will play into Thurman's style. My prediction is early in the fight Chaves will get hit a lot more. I could be wrong, but I really think Chaves manner of fighting will suit Thurman.

                It will, I need to rewatch the Zavec fight because that was his toughest IMO.
                This fight ends in KO though... that much I'm certain

                  Nah, they'd never rob Floyd. He brings too much money into Las Vegas. They'd never betray him. It'd be ******.

                  Look at how Washington basically ignored Peterson's crimes, while Las Vegas did everything in their power to make sure Khan comes back to LA. Not saying Floyd commits any crimes, just that the commissions look out for their interests, and some at least have a shred of integrity, unlike Washington.

                  Plus, I suspect FLoyd is involved and aware of every detail, he's got enough leverage to make sure everything is fair, if not on his side. And I think it's smart. If Manny was a little smarter, maybe the Bradley debacle wouldn't have happened.

                  Floyd decisioning Canelo seems like money in the bank, but I wonder if I should just put money on him to win, what if he KOs Canelo?

                  And Pac is definitely going to KO Rios. Going to go heavy on that one.

                    Floyd losing is beneficial to everyone though.
                    Floyd still gets paid, Canelo a star, a rematch for even higher stakes

                    I'm waiting until fight week for Pac/Rios.
                    Line seems to be dropping, people will think rios will stand a chance.

                      Wow, Thurman is a huge favorite to win according to the bookies. I didn't think it'd be by such a large margin. Bummer, I was looking forward to putting money on Thurman to win, but at these odds it's definitely not worth it.
