    You know, I read this thread thinking I was going to read a whole bunch of hate but WOW I feel like I just took a class. I've always been a little shaky on odds. I need to go through this thread again. Good stuff.

    I'm not really too surprised on 14-1. Wont the odds tighten up as the fight gets closer? Thanks!

      How much you want to bet Algieri dont win a single round?

          Yes the odds will tighten closer to the fight. If you want to bet on Algeiri, now would be the best time to do so

          They say sharp gamblers bet early and bet late

            If this thing opens up with -1400/+800, I think there's probably some value in betting on Algeri. The odds will probably move to something around the +650 area. But I'd keep it small. There's not a chance in hell he's winning a decision, imo.

                i think odds will stay the same or be even more for pac, lot of asian gamblers,

                i think chris gets knocked out, terrible one sided matchup imo,

                      sounds about right but that only because algieri is taller, i was thinking 20-1......this is a ***** fight and algieri will get blown out.
