The least talked about fight on tonight's Cotto vs Margarito II pay-per-view card is the welterweight bout between Philadelphia's Mike Jones and Argentina's Sebastian Lujan. While physically the fight looks like a mismatch, with Jones possessing a six-inch height advantage, there is some concern that Lujan will be tough and relentless enough to make a go of it.

The sportsbooks are definitely seeing it going the "house fighter's" way, though, as Jones has been installed as a significant favorite:

Sportsbook Jones Lujan
5Dimes -900
+600
BetUS -800
+500
Bodog -850
+525
SBG Global -800
+500
Sportsbook.com -800
+500

Definitely not surprising odds here, given that Jones (25-0, 19 KO) is absolutely the guy booked to win. But the odds don't reflect that Lujan (38-5-2, 24 KO) should be able to make this a good fight, or at least exciting. He's never been afraid to get hit or take punishment -- even almost losing an ear once against Antonio Margarito.
