Shane Mosley +350 by DEC?

Question

These are the most baffling odds ever.

Mosley is -170 to win. And the over 9.5 is -275. Yet Shane is +350 to win a decision?! WTF? It's a must play just for how ridiculous the odds are. Doesnt make any sense.

Daniel Geale just went into Oz and took a wide decision from Mundine. Geale is now a better fighter than Shane is, but not by much, and Geale had no clout or prestige and still won wide in Australia. Mosley has name cache. Those +350 odds suggest he cant win a decision but why the hell is he an almost 1-2 favorite to win the fight then and the over rounds shaded well to the over?

Head scratcher. F it. Shane +350 DEC. Large.

Do you realise Daniel Geale is Australian??  And a very popular Aussie

not that it means anything as the fight has passed but your book probably made an error.

im assuming that they also had this booked as a ten-round fight at -275 as opposed to the scheduled twelve.

the +350 was probably meant to be by ko/tko/dq as opposed to decision

The line appeared to be an error. And a loser all the same. Was worth a stab.

It was those odds because someone had a bet on this fight to end by ko/tko. (I wonder who that was)

rzagza · Answer

Probably Shane Mosley.
