I find these odds quite interesting

http://www.oddschecker.com/boxing/floyd-mayweather-v-saul-alvarez/final-judgement

Surely it is closer than the odds on for a mayweather unanimous decision? Most experts seem to think it will go the distance and if so it must be worth a couple of quid on each for a split decision?

Nope, it's Floyd by UD for me and if anything looks value then it's the UD.  

Floyd's had one SD (vs De La Hoya), 17 UD's and 26 KO's. The recent point wins have been very comfortable despite people writing him off and the late money coming in on his opponents.

On another note if you plan on backing Canelo then do it before Friday's weigh in.

There's some % of a chance he comes in over the catch weight of 152lbs, giving him an advantage and his price will shorten. Previously he came in 2lbs over the 150lb catch weight vs Matthew Hatton.

Seems like a bit of a minefield to me, think ill just watch the fight and enjoy it.

On second thoughts given how much i fancy Floyd on points, split decision can't be too bad a bet.

I sometimes do round betting for sweats, might burn a few quid on them.

Split decision 14-1? Might worth a £10

Shame about Oscar Del Hoya, good timing pal. Sigh

I might do the draw, at least you get a sweat until they read the scores out Cheesy

Probably not a bad idea golden boy has gone to rehab now... last thing Alvarez needs is one of the extras from Fear and Loathing floating about during the biggest weekend of his life!

Tell you what boxers are not renowned for their wit during media sessions but Floyd came out with this beauty, "I beat Hatton and Cotto, not their brothers."

He also said he didn't care about Alvarez's record. "He's 42-0 but he hasn't fought 42 Floyd Mayweathers, or his record would be 0-42".

I liked that.

I think this is set up for a Mayweather masterclass.  Canelo will struggle to lay a glove on him as Mayweather will have got his shots off and be out of range before Canelo sets his feet never mind throws a punch.  I've not had a bet yet as I want to see how Canelo looks at the weigh in as he hasn't made 152 for over two years and I got the impression that he was pretty tight at 154.  Losing that last two pounds will be painful.

He must be an absolute NAP to come in over 152lb.

It's 6pm this evening in Vegas, so for us I think it will be roughly 2 am... Will try and wake up to watch it..

Going towards Mayweather being down in late rounds but knicking it by split decision.. 

Want Canelo to win tho
