Money Talks: Darchinyan-Arce and the rest of Saturday's fights
As always, odds are taken from the sportsbook at Bodog. Vic Darchinyan is the favorite over Jorge Arce, but the book doesn't have him as quite the overwhelming choice that most boxing fans and writers do. Conventional wisdom says Darchinyan eventually hammers Arce down, but conventional wisdom...
Money Talks: Margarito-Mosley
As always, odds are taken from the book at Bodog. Also: I wanted to put up an older Mosley fight in preparation for Margarito, but I couldn't think of one that was even sort of comparable, especially one recent enough that we'd be seeing the Shane Mosley of today as opposed to the Mosley of...
Money Talks: "The Dream Match" and the rest of the weekend
IT'S THE FINAL COUNT DOWN! We are a little over 24 hours away from the start of the Oscar de la Hoya-Manny Pacquiao pay-per-view, and that means it's time to look at the odds. Lines are taken, as always, from Bodog. Let's start big. The main event. "The Dream Match." Oscar and Manny, 147 pound...
Money Talks: Williams-Phillips and more
Personally, I don't think Ted wore the white outfit nearly enough. As always, odds are taken from Bodog. Paul Williams is a MASSIVE favorite (-1100) against Verno Phillips (+600) in the HBO Boxing After Dark main event tomorrow night, which probably went without saying. Williams (35-1, 26 KO)...
Money Talks: Hatton-Malignaggi, Caballero-Molitor, and the rest
All lines, as always, are taken from the Bodog book. The biggest fight of the weekend, of course, will main event on HBO from Las Vegas, as junior welterweight champion Ricky Hatton defends his crown against Brooklyn slickster Paulie Malignaggi. The style clash should make for an interesting...
Money Talks: Odds on Taylor-Lacy and Haye-Barrett
As always, odds are taken from the book over at Bodog. The heavyweight re-debut, if you will, of David Haye in London today against Monte Barrett sees Haye as a pretty heavy favorite. Haye is a -600 bet, with the 37-year old Barrett at +400. I still say the chance that Haye is caught cold by...
Money Talks: Peter-Klitschko and Tarver-Dawson
As always, odds are taken from Bodog. Fight thread will get bumped up later -- I just wanted to put something up for people to not post spoilers. The books have Vitali Klitschko as a -200 favorite over Samuel Peter (+160). Both guys are decent bets, really. Maybe Peter catches Klitschko cold and...
Money Talks: Mosley-Mayorga and Berto-Forbes odds
We've talked betting odds before, just for kicks. Just to see how the bookies are thinking. The couple of times I've done this, I never recommended anyone take my advice. But Shane Mosley at -800 this weekend against Ricardo Mayorga (+500) is worth putting down some serious coinage. I am so...
Money Talks: Odds on this weekend's fights
Gotta love that Pacino-McConaughey team, huh? Alright, alright, alright. Hoo-ah! Not a great movie. Don't go out of your way. Shocking, I know. All lines are taken from Bodog, and this is not meant to encourage gambling. That's my disclaimer, because I don't want to hear about it if you lose your...
Money Talks: Odds on tonight's fights
All odds are taken from the book over at Bodog. I'm not generally a betting man. For one thing, I don't have the dispensable money. For another thing, every time I start to sort of hint that maybe I'd like to put a little bit down on this fight or that, I get told that it's a bad idea. You know...
