Juan Urango = +600 = 6/1

Joe Calzaghe = -2000 = 1/20
Peter Manfredo Jr. = +1000 = 10/1

These are not my odds, these are from vegas.

a little off topic but morua may not be a bad bet. he is better than his record shows, def. has a better chance than 8/1.

Pete might not be a bad bet. What are the odds that Joe breaks his hand? If that happens, Manfredo has a chance. It's his ONLY chance, but I give Joe about a 1 in 5 of breaking his paw.

The only way Manfrtedo can beat Calzaghe is if Calzaghe put on a poor performance as he often does against lesser opposition. Calzaghe tends to look good against good opposition and poor against poor opposition. But to me Manfredo is a C+/B- fighter at best

That is exactly what I was thinking 10-1 is silly odds what with how fragile joes hands are (and how hard manfredo's noggin is). A fiver on Manfredo but rooting for Calzaghe as usual. 8)
