I watched 24/7 about 10 times looking for an angle and decided that Pacquiao looked more confident and Oscar seemed scared. After listening to Oscar on Jim Rome this week my suspicions were seemingly confirmed. Not going heavy but going with Manny +165 and Inside the distance +575. Not a boxing expert but that's the way I see it. GL.

I may not be an expert but it looks like I know more then they do anyways. Watching 24/7 pays off and is the icing on a BIG day. Seriously watching that show was an incredible handicapping tool despite what others on this site have said who have the other side. Maybe they should have watched.
WHAT AN ASS KICKING!
Manny +165
Manny ITD +575

Hard to ever make a play off of HBO countdown and 24/7 shows though. Their job is to grab ratings and buys with these and they want to portray every fight as the dog basically being even money to win. I think the most blatant example was Barrera-Pac II, people watching that countdown show and basing it off of what they saw would have run to the ticket line to take out bets on Barrera. You would have thought with the way Pac was portrayed that he was hopping planes living a playboy lifestyle day in and day without training and Barrera was a killer that was going to make him pay. Worst attempt by HBO I have ever seen to drum up interest.
Congrats on the wins.

From reading your posts I can tell you know your shit and have extensive knowledge in the sport I wouldn't pretend to compete with. In past fights 24/7 may have been a fraud but in this particular fight I found it to be very telling. What they billed on the show as the replica of fight day including 12 rounds vs an opponet, Manny looked great throughout and never showed a sign of fatigue. Osacar struggled against some stiff and his corner looked very concerned. Deja-Vue last night.
