    I know I know... The answer is no right? Who's the last guy Floyd KO'd? Ricky Hatton? I just can't fathom the line movement for Floyd by 12 round decision. It was at -215 3 days ago now its -157. Wtf is going on here? Huge line movement. I just don't know why I dont fly down to vegas and bet my entire bank account on Floyd in 12 at that price. -157??

    IMO there is only 1 of 2 outcomes this fight. Floyd KO's Maidana or beats him in 12 rounds like he always does.

    What is your guys thoughts? At this point i'm considering 1,570/1000 as a minimum bet at this point this is just ridiculous.

    I'm huge on Floyd by dec. Note, the last time I bet anywhere near this much was Danny Geale vs. Barker, which lost. There are no locks. 

    However, the fact that people actually believe the stuff fighters say during the hype before the fight (I'm going for the KO!) is one reason I love betting on this sport. Even if Floyd actually gave a garbage about stuff like that, which I doubt, I'm not sure he could KO MM. Nobody else has.

    Thanks Box. Good points. I think at this point of Floyds career he is concentrated on just maintaining his perfect record. If he's up say 5-1 in the score cards, why even bother for the KO? Floyd should be dancing around like he always does. I will be pounding Floyd by decision. Have about 4 different parlays with it and will add in another big separate bet come fri. GL

    could not agree more , looks almost to easy , two concerns on a huge play for me , chino may well punch himself out and be forced to retire and Floyd may not have pop to deliver KO - I'll be in the downtown area looking for best number on decision

    As far as MM punching himself out, that's not a huge concern to me. Usually when that happens, it's because you get the other guy hurt and go for broke, or at least you get a lot of shots off on him. So often, Floyd doesn't even allow guys to set up properly, let alone throw bomb after bomb round after round. How often do we here commentators say a fighter needs to at least take some shots or go for the desperation KO punch? It's not that easy. You got to be in the batters box and set up your swing to go for the home run.

    Maidana came into the ring damn near 20 lbs heavier.  Floyd would have a much better chance to KO a Khan or Pac.
