Any boxing guru's here? I'll be at this fight Saturday and I'm leaning Wright again. Price is at -220 currently but is being bought up a little bit.
My angle right now is the obvious one the rematch is rarely a different outcome than the initial fight. And Mosley is inexorably linked with Balco and as they are out of buisness the balco guys like Giambi, Bonds, and others aren't performing up to their peak 2-3 years ago when they were on the juice. Unless he's found a second source (not all that unlikely) he's weaker and is looking for one last payday before retiring.
My call Wright by decision. I'll put a small amount on KO in 10th and a bigger amount on no KO. |

Meant to answer this right after you posted it and then got busy with other things and never got back to it.
I'm really torn about the fight.
My initial thought is that Wright wins it hands down in what ends up being not a really good fight.
Then again, the more I think about it, the more I tend to think that Sugar Shane does "potentially" have a fairly good chance of winning this thing.
Take a look around at several casinos and try to get a good feel for what is happening with the odds and how they are changing to try to give you a good feel for where the money is going.
If you get a good impression that a lot of the money is going to Sugar Shane vice Winky, I would be very careful with placing too big of a bet on Winky.
Depending on what you can find out there, this might be a good fight to bet both sides.
JMHO.

Hope you went with your thought and not mine.
So - so fight.
Not really sure it was as close as the score said.
I had Wright winning it by about 3 points.
BOL today with the NFL

The fight was decent betting wise, I got worried in the 8th-10th that somebody was going to fall. I ended up with a GDT ticket cashing a WW ticket cashing and a WW by decision cashing all of them pretty chalky but it made it interesting.
The money started to pour to WW at about 1pm and halted at about -330 and settled there for the most part. I got it right on touchdown at -220 so I was happy with that but I waited too long on the WW decision and had to take 10/18 instead of 10/13 ugh.
I wasn't all that impressed with the fight, it was obvious from the start neither had knockdown power it was going to have to be a lucky punch when someone was tired to bring it to a stop.
