A poll here is split right around 50-50 between Manny and Miguel. And yet, the outside world has all but given the bout to Manny already. Cotto's a 3-1 underdog... but it seems like more than that when you read some of the stuff out there. I guess it underlines the difference between knowledgeable boxing fans and the casual boxing fan.

Hmmm... I kinda like it. All the more satisfying when Cotto's hand is raised in victory after the end of the fight.


Im not to sure mate surely the more knowledgabe fans will be risking there money than people who have seen a few clips of the fighters??

Obviously we have seen much shorter odd fighters than 1/3 been turned over but all the money is for Manny he was 1/2 when the fight was announced so were not talking about $20 here or there being put down for Manny were talking about serious money for the odds to go from 1/2 to 1/3, so big players in the gambling game have spoke not saying it's gonna be that way but I think the book usually is the best indicator imo.
