I already have FightPass but this specialty site sounds cool for only 10bucks. Can you PM me a link?

For the fight, I've always bet Mayweather to win by decision. It's been printing all these years. Fairly predictable.

I do hope Connor KO's him Floyd. Not a Mayweather fan, will wait closer to fight time as I think lots of Floyd will be coming in again. The line now is great to bet on Floyd. I wanna place some money on Connor wins via KO

Yea where can you get it for 10 bucks? pm me as well please.

ROFL you guys are savages

This is going to be an awesome event.

I know people would complain if they charged for a press conference, and now people are complaining that its free?
I am excited about the media coverage of this and the fight, I am a fan of all things combat.

sorry they closed new accounts recently so they dont get shut down due to growth.

anyone know why the odds of Floyd winning by decision have gone up quite a bit? Saw it started at around 2.50 (+150) and is now 3.75 (+275) on betfair.
also the draw odds has fallen quite a bit

anyone think the IRS debt issue might be a distraction for Mayweather come fight night? I'd argue that the biggest distraction of his career (going to jail for 2+ months) didn't seem to impact his next performances, but could see arguments on the other side too.

People starting to doubt McG can get punched in the face for 12 rounds and keep going.

This is a joke of a fight. Floyd is still most likely a favorite against anyone in the world at his weight class and Conor is not a professional boxer (until now).

Conor is an exceptional promoter and there is a huge contingent of fanboys that will bet on him no matter what. This is the only reason this line is not -2000 Mayweather.

This will go 1 or 2 rounds if Conor is actually trying to win and go for a KO. If Conor tries to just survive as long as possible it can maybe go 8.

Only risk in betting Mayweather here is some weird DQ or the extremely unlikely scenario where he takes a dive to set up a rematch.

That last sentence is what would scare me the most. Boxing is such a great sport, but it's decline can be somewhat attributed to all the BS and corruption.
Betting the house on a sure thing like FMJ is almost certain to bite you in the @$$ because some insider has an ulterior motive to make more $$$.

If you're holding a gun to my head and telling me to pick 1 I lay the house on FMJ. I think the smarter thing (depending on the odds) might be as someone else suggested, large bet on FMJ and a smaller insurance bet on a Connor KO in the first 4 rounds.

Conor said at the presser "he wants to KO Floyd within 4" so I think the odds are moving a little cause of that. Also Floyd said he was gonna KO Conor in 1 round.

If Canelo couldn't knock out mayweather, how is mcgregor going to. I think people don't realize how hard it is to hit mayweather. He could prolly be stunned and would be smart enough to realize he just has to regain composure and fight defensive to win.

I would avoid this fight though. Have to bet way too much to win a small amount of mayweather. Think he wins by tko, ko, or at worst low probability of fight going distance. Boxing is so corrupt and a loss by mayweather would bring in a ton of money for a rematch. I'll just sit on sideline and it buy the ppv bc I believe the fight watch value will be small and prolly will end under 6 rounds. Think bridge jumping mayweather is right way to go though.

One final thing, I could see him being rusty but won't matter against this guy. Would prolly be a big deal if he fought an elite boxer like canelo.

Betting on boxing has left a bitter taste in my mouth after pacquiao lost that first fight against Bradley which was clearly a PAC win. I don't like betting sports where a bad decision can kill your solid wager.

^ Pretty much exactly that. Nice post.

I don't get it the numbers here - is there any other way to win besides Decision/KO/TKO? Do you lose any of those on a DQ, or is your bet refunded?

LOL at those odds.....

Currently on Bookmaker:

Conor McGregor +523

Floyd Mayweather Jr -749

Round 1: +2147

O9.5 +146
U9.5 -171

plus dont forget you had Floyd Sr. come out the other day and say his son couldn't KO Conor because of a hand issue. I guess maybe people were expecting the KO attempt, but I never really saw it outta Floyd. I think most would agree if it goes the distance that Mayweather is likely a lock to win it.

Floyd in a decision at +245 looks tasty to me.

Rain, do you recall which interview this was? I seen a video of Sr. ambushing McGregors press conference and talking all sort of ****.

Nevermind, found it for those interested... http://www.foxla.com/sports/267313371-story

I think the reason the line is where it is is not so much the threat of corruption, but more that people are concerned (enough to not be pounding -800, at least) that introducing a Bruce Lee-esque striker into boxing could be like introducing an invasive species into Australia or whatever. I mean, there haven't been many strikers like McGregor in the history of combats sports, so this is pretty unprecedented.

I'm loving the over 9.5 at plus money, personally. The only fight where Conor 'went for the KO' was his first one against Diaz, and I think he learned his lesson (also, given that this is a 36 minute fight, I highly doubt he will attempt a similar strategy). His entire gameplan is based off inducing and slip-and-ripping his opponent's right, which I doubt will work well against Mayweather, given that Mayweather is a very left-hand-focused orthodox. And since Mayweather is a counter-striker himself, I expect a very slow-paced fight where the rear hands cancel each other out, and McGregor gets outboxed with the front hand. He is very concerned about maintaining face, so I think he will be doing everything possible to avoid getting finished, even at the expense of entertainment value. Also, they're using 10 ouncers.

IMO Floyd would be a dog at 40 against Errol Spence without question. He is probably a dog vs Kell Brook and Keith Thurman too. Terence Crawford would be a pick em.

Of course that doesn't mean anything for this fight. McGregor's chances are totally in the limit because it isn't MMA. Nobody just gets caught in boxing and is put to sleep with one punch and counted out at 154. You have to hurt a guy first to get them to expose their chin in order to do that. There is all this conflating with MMA where guys have their chin dangling out just waiting to get KOed with 1 punch.

For sure the risk of betting on Mayweather is that the fight is worked to set-up another mega rematch. There is a way better chance that happens than McGregor winning.

I will be betting the most I ever have on Mayweather but I am waiting until the day of the fight to let people come up with all kinds of delusional ideas like The Don just posted.

What's so delusional? I'm not betting McGregor ML, so I won't move the line for you. I said Mayweather will outpoint McGregor. He will likely have to hurt a fighter who is keeping his distance and not coming forward, using his front hand in an opposite stance matchup. That ain't easy. That's why I'm loving the over. If you think that is delusional, then take Mayweather KO and we will see who is closer to the truth after the fight.

To say the ML line is where it is because of conspiracy theories is insane. It's because it's unprecedented, and people don't like to bet on unprecedented stuff at -700.

More likely that they don't like to tie up money for a month for no reason. Even chat room millionaires have to consider opportunity cost. I bet 125k on Floyd over the weekend at a single shop in Vegas and the line moved all of 25c. Getting down on this nonsense won't be a prob. If the line doesn't move significantly on or around fight night then I think it's fair to put the tin foil hats on.

I have bet $0 on this fight so far. Will probably be >$0.

See above.

the only question should be if mayweather has agreed to let him go the full distance or not

Anywhere in Vegas I can get a better price than -600 on Floyd? Please PM me if anyone knows where. Ty
