One anonymous gambler is extremely confident in Floyd Mayweather Jr. That person placed a total of $880,000 on Mayweather to beat Conor McGregor on Friday at the South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa in Las Vegas. According to Vegas Stats & Information, that is believed to be the largest wager placed on Mayweather since their fight was officially announced June 14.

It's as good as money in the bank if you can afford to do it. Conor has no chance.

What happens if there's a freak accident and it's ruled a draw?

Crazy the odds are now that close (relatively); the power of the gullible. Homeboy should've waited a bit longer as this Paulie debacle might even close the odds a bit tighter.

Betting on Floyd to win is one of the best ROI moves for an investor right now.

Depends on the type of wager he made. Usually there are two options with betting on a specific guy. The normal one & the one I assume he made would make a draw be a push so he'd get his wager back. There is a less used option that usually pays slightly better than only a Floyd win bet so a draw = a L for the bettor in that case.

Yup best 401K plan out there.

Imagine how gutted that guy will be if Mayweather picks up an injury like Haye did against Bellew.

What does the writer mean just 160,000!!! That's easy money why not? Unless the author knows of a easier way to earn $160k in 36 minutes that we don't know of!!

He means it's not much compared to what he's risking.
