      That was a very sweeping statement, I remember Tyson vs Douglas.

      • Would be an interesting line to follow I think Floyd would start pretty high (high -200s) but I think the line ends up with Floyd at about half that price.

        SO, if you think Manny is going to win bet early if you think Floyd will win bet late.

          That's called an upset. Tyson was seen as the better fighter, so he was favored. Douglas winning didn't make those who picked Tyson insane. 10 out of 10 times, you go back in time not knowing what ends up happening, you always pick Tyson in that fight. Picking Douglas is going against the grain or you have so much money you don't know what to do with it so you bet on Douglas just for fun.

          • In Mayweather vs Pacquiao's case, it's a lot more legitimate to pick Pacquiao over Mayweather. I wouldn't see those who pick Pac as going against the grain or just trolling. Mayweather is old, he'd be 38 by the time of the fight if it happened in 2015. He can be outworked, Maidana showed that being dirty and throwing lots of punches throws Mayweather off his game a bit. I don't think Pac is capable of being dirty but he can throw a lot of punches maybe. I don't see him doing that against Marquez, because of his counterpunching ability. I think it'll be the same with Floyd, his counterpunches will keep Pac's workrate normal. I think Mayweather wins, but if Pacquiao ever had a chance, it's definitely now. Not 2009, not 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013. It's now in 2014-2015. Floyd's age is catching up.

                everything favors floyd. height, reach, styles, even ring age. floyd should win.

                the thing is.... pac has a knack for winning fights he's not suppose to.
                Exactly!

                And when he does won those fights he was not suppose to, them haters find all kinds of excuses to discredit those victories

                    • I would never bet on a fight like this. I have a feeling that Floyd is gonna get robbed of a decision win.
