Not 100% done yet, but it looks close to done.

It should be a good fight, but I think Cotto will stop Mayorga with some vicious body shots. Mayorga might not have much left, but with his power he can make things interesting if he catches Cotto clean.

I just put $100 Mayorga at +600 - just too good to pass on.

The thing is, for another hundred I could win enough to pay for the trip out to Vegas. I have to believe that these odds are going to shrink. It's not like Cotto looked particularly tough in his fight with the overrated/feather fisted Foreman. And I can't get the image of Cotto quitting against Marg out of my head. And the Pac fight had to have taken whatever confidence Cotto had left.

Ahhhhhhahahahahahahaha. My Man. I did the same thing yesterday as JD and I were talking. Not so much because I think Cotto loses, but because I think Mayorga has an outside shot to land one of his haye-makers and put Cotto's lights out.

To be fair, what I REALLY wanted to do (and will) is put money on Mayo by stoppage, but, the fight being so far away, the ONLY thing Sportsbook.com has odds on right now is to pick the winner (not how they win). I only laid $50 on Mayo to win $300 (as I want to see if those odds widen or not). If the odds widen, I will continue to add to that position. My real interest is in the odds of Mayo by stoppage, because if he is +600 to win, he's gotta be +1000 to win by stoppage (which, let's face it, is the only way he wins). Big size advantage here (when you see these two stand back to back). What's more, they BOTH look out of shape yesterday.

This is a value play here. Not indicative of how I see the fight playing out.

I'm at sportsbook as well. At +1000 I'm in by stoppage too, but sportsbook has been weak lately and hasn't offered much more than straight bets for boxing.
