Incredible Mayweather-McGregor Betting Odds!

[lazboy]

I'm not sure whom you're trying to sell. He has no chance at all. He's also clearly better than anyone thought. Fighting 12 competitive rounds with malignaggi when you have no pro fights is impressive in it's own right.

Competitive rounds? Send us the footage if you have it.

Paulie said it was. He could be lying, not sure why he would.

He's changed his tune now due to the release of some pics. He's now said he kicked Conor ass and wants the sparring footage released.

But who knows, prob the reason Conor's good at mma is because he has some boxing skill.

[SaadOffTheDeck]

It was the same sequence. He said he kicked his ass, he also said it was competitive and Conor closed strong. He said it was violent. I think the main reason he wants the footage released is because a pic on some form of social media makes it look like Paulie got dropped and he said McGregor pushed him.

[Kalan]

Paulie is a little prick... Years ago in his prime Shawn Porter jabbed the living crap out of Paulie and knocked him out pronto... Paulie was staring up at the ring lights counting Tweety Birds.. The man can't fight and never could.. He's a feather hitter who was beaten by every good boxer he ever fought.

Conor is a MMA fighter posing as a boxer... He can't box so he brought in Paulie to help him get ready for the best boxer of the last generation... I think McGregor is going to get his ass boxed to death but he's making at least 80 million dollars so he wants to look credible.. This is a circus show and it's NOT about Conor beating Mayweather.. This is about MONEY.. This fight is a MONEY GRAB and that's it...

McGreagor gave Paulie some money to help him out -- so he can last a while with Mayweather and doesn't embarrass himself too badly and make a fraud out of the whole mess like James Toney did in his highly hyped crossover fight to MMA.. Toney didn't make the least effort to learn MMA.. McGregor doesn't control what goes out on social media and nobody gives flying fk if Paulie can outbox somebody who never had a pro boxing match in his life.

He does control it that's the point Paulie is making. The only guys in the gym are members of McGregor's team. There's no way they posted that without him knowing.

[RScarf1]

It seems that Paulie has changed his tune regarding what went on behind closed doors. He said that Conor did well while showing bruises on his face. Now that a pic was shown of Paulie on the canvas, he is pissed and says that he was pushed. I doubt that he beat McGregor's a$$. Maybe he was pushed and does not like being falsely portrayed, but he could have waited until after the fight to voice his feelings about being a sparring partner for McGregor.

[Kalan]

Paulie played this whole thing for himself and the publicity and attention it brought him... He never gave a fk about Conor and hopes Floyd kills him.

It's not a typo you stupid jerk, and I didn't click on the link... It was something I read that made sense... Dublin is close enough to the UK, which Northern Ireland is a part of -- for the BBC to try to claim Conor if his beats Mayweather.. I don't care what anyone is saying right now because the likelihood of McGregor winning isn't that fabulous.. But if he wins everyone will change their tune.

Honestly, I can assure you that British people are aware of the fact that Ireland isn't part of the UK. It's the kind of thing you learn quite quickly, like Mexico not being part of the USA, or Norway and Sweden being different countries. Do all Americans try and claim that Mexican boxers are American? No, of course not, for exactly the same reason as we don't claim people from different countries.

You're babbling... You don't know what you're talking about. The United Kingdom (UK) comprises four (4) countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The thinking may go, if we claim Northern Ireland, why not Dublin??? That wasn't the 1st time a Brit has taken McGregor for a Northern Irishman.

I've lived in the UK all my life; part of that in Northern Ireland, so I can assure you that I know exactly what I am talking about. Nobody would for an instant try and "claim" an Irishman (by which I mean someone from Ireland; not someone from Northern Ireland; the distinction is clear to anyone British) as British. As to "why not Dublin" it's because Northern Ireland is British and Ireland isn't. We don't "claim" Northern Ireland. It's British. Many there would rather it wasn't, but that is also true of many in Scotland and Wales.

Would the British support an Irishman? Yes, probably. Many of us have Irish ancestry in varying degrees. We quite like the Irish. But we don't have to say they are British to support them. Yo can scream and shout all you like; you are only exposing your own ignorance.

Wow McGregor 7/2 at some places..

As per the prediction that I made within the very first post of this thread, the Mayweather-McGregor betting odds have shifted significantly within the last few weeks…

British bookmakers (such as BETFRED, Paddy Power, UNIBET, Ladbrokes, Coral, Bet Fair, BWIN.com, 32.Red, Marathon BET, 888sport and betway) rate Floyd as being only 81.8% certain (2/9) to defeat Conor, with the Irish underdog having an implied probability of an astonishingly high 23.8% (16/5) to emerge victorious.

Just to place some context on these numbers should you fancy placing a bet on the Mayweather-McGregor fight…

If you placed a £10 bet with ‘betway’ on Mayweather to defeat McGregor you’d make a very decent £2.22 profit. Place precisely the same bet on McGregor via the very same bookmaker and you’d potentially profit by £32.

Incredibly, if the betting odds continuously follow the current trajectory, it seems highly likely that Conor McGregor will be considered less of an underdog against Floyd Mayweather Jr. than Wladimir Klitschko was for his marvellous bout against Anthony Joshua.

If you want to make some easy money, you may be tempted to place a bet on a dead-cert Floyd Mayweather Jr. victory at the very last minute, when Money May’s odds should drop to around the 70% mark, which could potentially provide a 40% return on investment.

So.. 81.8+23.8=105.6 ...

Which leaves a negative 5.6% chance of draw or no contest..?

Tyson vs. Buster Douglas: "Most bookmakers refused to take bets for the fight. The Mirage, the only casino in Las Vegas willing to offer odds to punters, rated Douglas as a 42-1 underdog."
https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/ ... -the-vault

So Tyson was a 42-1 favourite against Buster Douglas and probably the best boxer of all-time who dominated Pacman not long ago is only a 4-1 (or even 7-2) favourite against an MMA fighter with no pro-boxing fights?

All that proves is how many MMA-fanboys get too much allowance to play with. Hell, I'm a totally lapsed boxing fan and mostly watch MMA these days. If I were a betting man, I would bet my house on Mayweather. Boxing fans should be enthusiastic about the betting lines. Easy money on Floyd. If they would fight 10 times, does anyone think that Conor would win 2 out of 10??

[seattledirk]

It's times like these I definitely wish I lived near Nevada. I'd be dropping a significant bet on Mayweather for this.

Online betting always seems too dodgy to me.

Why don't you finance the trip to Nevada incl. front-row seats to the fight by betting on Floyd on site?

I'd have to have enough money to bet in the first place to make the trip worthwhile.

That would be a tough 200k to dig up.

McGregor starting to show up at 3/1.... this is getting crazy.

I'm getting really tempted to stick 5k on Floyd I don't bet and can't afford to lose but it seems a dead cert

[Thomastearns]

Bookmaking isn't about predicting results, its about taking a cut by getting one side to bet against the other. The current odds must simply reflect the enormous money being put on McGregor. The odds had to narrow or else a freak result could wipe out the bookies.

McGregor winning will be a freak result. Much bigger than Tyson v Douglas. Tyson was all over the shop before that fight whilst Douglas was in the best condition of his life.

Like someone said earlier, if you want to bet on Mayweather then its probably best to leave it late as possible as long as McGregor money (silly/wildly risky?!?) forces the odds to keep closing.

‘Betway’ now rate Mayweather Jr. as having an implied probability of only 76.92% (30/100) to defeat McGregor. The same bookmaker rates the Irish underdog as having an astonishingly high 27.78% (13/5) chance to score an upset. And Conor’s betting odds are shortening drastically on a daily basis.

To put these numbers into perspective: 'NetBet' rated Anthony Joshua as having an implied probability of 72.7% (3/8) to defeat Wladimir Klitschko… and it seems inevitable that Conor McGregor will soon be considered less of an underdog against Floyd Mayweather Jr. than ‘Dr Steelhammer’ was against AJ.

Based on those stats, you'd currently make an incredibly impressive 30% ROI from placing a bet on the finest boxer of our generation (an all-time-great) to defeat a man making his pro debut (who quit amateur boxing before he even became old enough to be considered a junior)!

What’s this world coming to?

There really isn’t a “problem” per se. It’s more about the absurdity of the betting odds.

To be honest, I’m looking to exploit this anomalous situation by placing a pretty sizable bet on Money May at the very last-minute, because I could secure myself an impressive 40% ROI on an almost “risk free” investment that could be paid out to me immediately.

[diddy]

I've decided to pounce now at -450 and not wait any longer. Huge sharks are gonna pound the windows on Floyd next week which will override all these retard nation $50 square bets.

I have a total of $15,000 staked on Floyd mostly at -450 with some at -500.

No way it gets down to 40%. That's -250. Just no way.

2 out of 10?

He'd win 0 out of 100.
