3:1 ODDS for Pac-Cotto, who would have thought?!

[keypool]

Vegas odds are 3:1 for Pac-Cotto.

I think it should be closer to 1:1 or fifty-fifty. I think people are underestimating Cotto too much.

More than a year ago, no one would give Pac a chance against Cotto. Now he is a 3:1 favorite. Amazing.

3-1 seriously??

Those odds are crazy, I might have to bet on this...

No way it stays so wide, it's just a way to get a ton of late money on Cotto imo. By fight night I bet it will be more in the -210-180 range on Pacquiao, anything else is an absolute steal.

Looking at William Hill now, Manny is 22-1 to win in the first round compared to Cotto at 40-1!!

Manny is only 12-1 to win by ko in rounds 5 thru 8.

The best money for me is Cotto by points at 7-1!!!

That's crazy odds.

Cotto by Ko is 10-3, against nice odds indeed.

Look at what it opened at, there's no way this sticks imo. Just a way to get money flowing. Quietly though, this is turning into a big fight that is getting a lot of attention.

I think Miguel is going to whip on Pacquiao. De La Hoya was dead at the weight and Hatton got caught by a good shot from a southpaw just like Sambu Kalambay got caught by Michael Nunn in 1989. Now don’t get me wrong if they were the same size I would favor the Pac-man, but I don’t how Pacquiao can beat a strong welterweight in his twenties unless Miguel is completely shot. I hope I’m wrong because a Pacquiao-Mayweather fight would be good for the sport, but I’m so confident in a Cotto victory that I’m going to make a significant wager on the fight. I only bet on boxing once every couple years, when I feel like the odds are based on a false perception held by the majority.

You were right on one thing. It didn't stick. It just went higher for Pacquiao (so far) based on that site you quoted. It opened -220 and now its -300.

Im really surprised Pacquiao is odds on to win by KO. I think its going the distance. If a gun was put to my head id favour a close Pacquiao decision which is 4/1 but the 10/1 you can get on a Cotto points victory is crazy tbh, I mean thats what happened against Mosley and Clottey recently.

Amat, odds fluctuate according to the money being bet. It's not a conspiracy or surprising.

Anyone that thinks this fight is 50/50 should back Cotto. Win or lose you're making a great bet. That is a fact. Not a comdey fact. A real fact. Fact.

Cotto's chin is just to questionable for me. Im not even taking the margarito fight into consideration, ive just seen cotto down and hurt to many times to think he could win this. Cotto usually seems to respond in the same way his opponet does. If his opponet is aggressive (which Manny deffinitly is, than Cotto's aggressive also). I think its gonna come out to a slug fest and I cant see Cotto winning that. I am suprised at the odds tho.

what fights are you watching then? cause aside from the Margarito fight he's only been dropped once, and that was at 140 against Ricardo Torres, he's only gone down against Margarito after that, so don't see how you've seen him down and hurt so many times
