What will the odds be: Pacman and Floyd Mayweather jr?

[TimmyC]

Best case senario I think would be even up... I still beat Floyd would be the favorite by a bit. Floyd -120 to -150 (to win 100 ) I say....and I am usually pretty good at predicting odds for boxing/mma / or nfl football.

Consider all of these facts!

Rem Floyd is undefeated...the naturally bigger man(Manny started out at 106 lbs to Floyd's lightest weight weight 131!!!!)....and Pac has 3 losses( 2 by KO)!

Floyd does NOT know how to lose.

I think Manny is a quick as Floyd and hits harder( 70% ko ratio to Floyd's 62% ko ratio).

Floyd probably has the better chin though.

Manny is hot though..Floyd maybe a bit rusty.

Also Floyds defense is great(much better than Mannys) and he could turn it into a boring fight if he wants..circling...running around the ring...shoulder defense...countering,etc.

He could run back peddle...circle....to a boring victory....never really getting it on w/ Manny. I can see Floyd running and countering and flurrying then circling all night.

With that said...I cannot stand Floyd and would love love love to see him get koyed!

Go Manny...I just don't see him pulling it off or being the favorite!

I give Manny a 30% shot at winning.

I don't see how you could bet against either one... but I'd give the edge to manny, in a close fight he's more likely to impress the judges.

 

[elmaldito]

Floyd -125
manny +155


By fight time manny will be favored.

 

[Phanekim]

plus 135 floyd is too slow now.

 

[Hangin**]

Rem Floyd is undefeated...the naturally bigger man(Manny started out at 106 lbs to Floyd's lightest weight weight 131!!!!)....and Pac has 3 losses( 2 by KO)!

Considering all the facts you have given to us, Pacs first lose is not that horrible at all, i saw that fight live on tv, and Pac completely dominates the fight until that guy throw some lucky punch and hits Pac badly, PACs first KO lose, on the other hand his second lose is due to weight problem, he was drained at that time and is the reason why he moves weight after that fight. PACs second KO lose. The Pac you saw in that vid, is not the same Pac we have now, i mean his lost early in his career does not affect what he is now.

...just my 2 cents...

 

[sambam]

imo floyd should be slight fav. but honestly i think it will be even and they will both be in the negatives like the aldo brown fight.

 

[Sharkey]

Mayweather -113
Pacquiao +102

As of now.

 

[Psychosis]

odds will be shit, not worth betting on

 

[lukewall]

I don't know much about odds and gambling, but I'd have a hard time seeing pacquiao as the favorite going into this one.

 

[Tony Manifold]

The best bet in this fight is who ever you can get the most lucrative odds for. This is basically a pick 'em fight.

 

[mschatz]

I'm with TimmyC on this one. I think Mayweather should be a clear favorite. If Manny is the betting favorite, I will be betting big on Floyd.

 

[TimmyC]

Yep, Floyd favorite...lets wait and see how the line moves though.

looks like the odds are out in Vegas

Sports Books Set Odds On Pacquiao-Mayweather

A deal to put Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. in the ring hasn’t even been made, but Las Vegas casinos are taking bets on who would win the hypothetical fight.

Pacquiao, coming off his dominating win over Miguel Cotto, opened as an 8-5 favorite at sports books operated by Station Casinos, and it didn't take long for bettors to take a side.

Several $20,000 bets were put down on Mayweather, forcing the line down to 7-5 in the early going, said Art Manteris, the casino operator's vice president of sports book operations.

And BetUs sportsbook

But at the BetUs Sportsbook, the odds are out, and it’s Mayweather, the flamboyant and undefeated American who came out as the early favorite against the hard-hitting, Filipino pound-for-pound champion.

Mayweather is undefeated in 40 fights, his latest, against a smaller Juan Manuel Marquez, coming after a 21-month retirement. Pacquiao, on the other hand, has fought and beaten everyone over the last four years and eight months.

In the early bettings, Mayweather was tagged as a -165 favorite, meaning to win a hundred bucks you must shell out $165. Pacquiao is at +125, that a bet of $100 wins $125.

Close, but Floyds size advantage and defensive first style will swing the odd's to his favor slightly. Floyd will be like a -130 or maybe a -150, under a -200 for sure.
