No. Mayweather is the favorite because he is undefeated and is a better fighter than Pac.

I'm honestly surprised Mayweather is only a 2-1 favorite

^^Records are over-rated to a certain excent, we see that in UFC. Guys who come in 10-0 can lose their first 2 fights when entering the UFC, mayweather is obv good, but has been bumhunting for a long time - whereas pacqio has a worse record but has been fighting real competetion.

This is prob the equivalent of a 8bb/100 semi-HU bumhunter deciding to play a 3bb/100 reg who gives anyone action. This is why Sugar Ray is the GOAT, he was esencially the isildur1 of boxing

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us and as we let our own lights shine we unconsciously give other people permision to do the same

Give me a fucking break...

Even Pactards don't use that excuse anymore.

No technical analysis I can offer except that I feel like there is value on Mayweather. Guy hasn't come very close to losing, and he's fought similar competition to Pac right?

mayweather is undefeated, but he shouldnt be:


some random thoughts in list form:
-mayweather really struggled with maidana in the first fight. maidana is a mindless brawler. if pac comes forward and doesnt get deterred mid fight by floyd's defense, he can do well.
-pac was way ahead of JMM before the KO. sure it was a vicious one punch shot, but floyd cant do that to him. the bradley fight he lost was more lopsided than a bunch of floyd's wins
-kenny bayless is seemingly pro floyd. he has bailed him out in past fights. big concern

all that said, i think mayweather is the clear favorite. he shuts down offense so well with his shoulder rolls and rope fighting. not sure how big a favorite, but id bet manny at +225 and floyd at -160. in between id just be guessing. will be rooting for manny because i think floyd is just a fantastic boxer that takes advantage of the rules, while manny is a great fighter whose skills would translate well to MMA, muay thai, etc. and hes just way more likable and exciting

The lines opened at 3.something - 1 for Mayweather it was just roughly 2weeks ago it went 2-1 because apparently a bunch of Vegas gamblers started putting huge money on pacquiao, they probably know something we don't.

longple: ur missing the point! this is an attempt to get away from the bumhuntmentality!

Pacquiao does poorly against counter punchers, thats why he always had serious trouble with Marquez and Mayweather is even better so that is pretty much why mayweather is a favourite, it has nothing to do with retarded unbeaten records.


Just like Daut id like to see Pacquiao win, mainly because Mayweather needs a good asswhooping and because a rematch is way more likely with that result

Anyone who thinks Pacquiao won his 3rd fight vs JMM is a moron -_-;;

Getting KO'd in the 4th fight was just karma.

Mayweather should be a massive favorite.

I agree mayweather should be clear favorite here.

Rooting for pacman though obv. But i would not be surprised if he just got out boxed for 12 rounds.

pretty simple:

mayweather will never lose and only took the fight because he knows he wont lose

if you bet on mayweather the only thing in the back of your mind making you nervous is how rigged boxing is

we all remember pac vs bradley

I just recently started watching boxing and I'm excited for this fight. Wish I could learn some more about the sport to enjoy it more

I also never bet sports, can anyone help me out; how do these sportbooks set the odds for these events? Do they simply automate moving the line every time someone bets to guarantee themselves a profit from the rake? Or do they analyze the match and try to set the odds they believe are correct? Or some half & half system?

Also wanted to say that as a newb viewer you get the impression that mayweather is hugely favored. Every match I watch the commentators praise him to the skies, he never seems to get into trouble, he does have an unbeaten record (might be bumhunting in some form sure but it still seems very impressive). Pacquiao is strong, aggressive and gutsy but he's at least been shown to be human before. Anyway if this impression is wrong and newbs like me are moving the line, doesn't that make it very attractive to bet on Pac?
