    No such thing as a lucky punch in boxing.

      And that is why he will never lose in Vegas where he only fights in.

      Vegas loves this fraud.

          Many people got so royally screwed on May 2nd, that it would take a marketing strategy the likes of which no one has seen before, to nail those same people again.

          High rollers probably don't care about the losses since they win\lose that amount regularly. But for the common working people who loss big, you can forget about them coming back.

              Damn, people lost a ton of money betting on Pacquiao. No wonder they are suing him.

                Except he isn't an idiot. The risk reward ratio wouldn't be favourable.

                The only bet, in recent years, that made sense the moment I looked at it was Froch vs Bute. ******** for the most part is pretty ******, but it was clear to me that Froch was going to paste Bute and the odds were favourable.

                    Its really hard to say at present, mainly because the May\Pac fight had festered to become an open wound for boxing, now its a scar. Arum\Roach\Manny collectively got owned in the ring and to save face, they concocted this shoulder injury as a ruse to explain away the lopsided loss and to feed the need for a second fight.

                    At least, that's how I see it especially given the announcement that Manny will be fully healed enough to fight again possibly in Nov.2015.


                    Has boxing on a whole suffered .... Not likely, but more and more are inclined to watch boxing on cableTV as opposed to buying PPV's.

                      They no doubt sold a lot of alcohol after the fight. There were a lot of people anxious to forget what they had just witnessed.
