    Mystic Mayweather

    "According to ESPN, Mayweather went to the M Resort sportsbook at around 3:30pm PT (a half hour before the undercard started on Fox) and attempted to put $400,000 on the fight ending in under 9.5 rounds at -200. There was a problem with that though - in Nevada a combatant is allowed to bet on themselves, but usually only on a straight win. No props."

    Floyds using his psychic powers for petty thievery. Smh

      As per usual I got close on the betting. I had it round 9. and 11. But also 10-12, so I ended up winning around 150 %. What a great fight though. I was honestly having this weird ass gut feeling all the months leading up to the fight, that Mayweather would lose the fight, I didn't shake it off until round 8. My betting, was not subjective though.

          I betted on Floyd KOing him in the 7th. Which he would of done if he wasn't trying to win his own bet. Wasn't serious money but I wish I knew about this Conflict of interest beforehand.

            That rule makes sense. A fighter as good as Mayweather could end the fight in the exact round he needed to win the bet.

              I think the problem is cuz it's a bet he could control the outcome of. I mean it wouldn't make sense for him to quit before 9.5 rds for the money won but he could is the issue.

              I think they woulda let him bet on himself by KO since they allow you to bet on yourself.

              Although props in general seem off the table from what ts linked.
