Late money is coming in on Robert Guerrero. Mayweather is down to -600, while Robert is holding at +450.

-570/+480 now.
It's because people hate Floyd so much they can't even respect his greatness. If people looked at this fight rationally instead of relying on their heart Floyd would be -1500 at best.

Oh I agree. I don't hate Floyd, but I'm not a big fan either.

it moved off-shore down to -600, -575 or so yest. back up to -600 today, the biggest drop is on prop for mayweather to win by decision. was at -195 at peak, now down to -148

I took Guerra early at +550 & Hollywood had Floyd at -550 at last look.

Where do you think the Alvarez-Cotto line starts? I'm guessing Saul comes in around -200 at the start, but Cotto won't have to hunt down the bigger Mexican. I'll pay to see it.

Lucas Matthysse is -210 against Lamont Peterson at +175. Over under is 91/2 rounds. Both are Golden Boy fighters, so you have to ask yourself which fighter Mayweather would most like to face in determining who you should pick to receive a decision win.

Precisely why I will be on Peterson. I think this line will get tighter. Peterson is a boxer and Matthysse brings a lot of power. I think Mayweather would rather fight a boxer because Peterson doesn't have the skill to outbox him. Matthysse says he's not worried about the judges but he should be. I think this one goes the distance. I expect a close fight but I have feeling the scorecards are going to say otherwise.

Froch-Kessler 2 should be exciting. Can Kessler execute Ward's strategy against a Froch who has improved his hand position so he no longer drags his weapons to war?
Is the -250 on Froch justified considering he lost to Mikkel last time?

Floyd Mayweather-Canelo Alvarez
The access-of-over is 11 1/2 rounds where I'm looking. Is anybody getting anything better than +280 on the under?
The Brit's are opening over -300 on Floyd.
Do you see a convincing win over Canelo as helping to overcome the Pacquiao duck issue in the eyes of the public?

As far as Canelo/Floyd if you like Canelo take him now. If you like Floyd I'd wait til he's walking to the ring.

Free Pick: I am looking at an expensive bet that makes sense to take. Former world Amateur champion Erislandy Lara is facing Mexican bomber Alfredo Angulo. Angulo is a plodder with good, but not devastating power.
Prediction: Angulo has to lead off to be effective. He needs someone to stand in front of him to be effective. Lara counters-well, and is the more seasoned-fighter. Lara should win convincingly.
Odds: I am seeing -460 on Lara and +350 on Angulo.

Seth Mitchell is -120 to Johnathon Banks at -110 for the 22nd, even though Banks convincingly stopped Mitchell in the 2nd last year. Do you believe it is a value proposition than Mitchell is the favorite right now?
