8-5 are good odds with Floyd as the fav. Leonard was a 12-5 fav against Duran 1st time around. Those odds make the statement that the fav can lose and you can make good money betting against him. Personally, I think Manny will win, however, I'd have to study the fight in depth before I put any money down. I don't have any connections to Manny's camp (I know what I'll see from Mayweather) so I'll probably be a "No Go" in putting a wager down.

frank where do you live..i think the boards map shows georgia.

I'd make Floyd at minimum a 2-1 favorite. I just struggle to find a way to think of Manny overcoming five inches of reach and ten+ pounds of weight on fight night,

The only reason I'd have it as close as 2-1 is that Floyd is slowing down and will probably be marginally less mobile etc by November.

I just can't quite call Manny a live dog though.

Marble, use your imagination. Help me to believe in Manny. Just curious. What was your call on Leonard - Duran I?

That Ray was a media made wussy and Duran would KILL him. I was awfully wrong on that one. I didn't realize, even after the Benitez fight, that Ray really was a warrior.

Look I've been so wrong for so long on Manny you should find it comforting

I've picked against Manny in five of his last six fights.

Mayweather a 3-1 Favorite IMO

over under 10 1/2 rounds

To me it should be even odds. I just do not see Floyd as this unbeatable force like everyone else does.
Lets look at it.
Size- Adv Floyd
Hand Speed- Adv Pac I know I will get ripped for this.
Power- Pac
Ring Generalship- Floyd
Foot speed- Toss up

I know I am missing some things but they are very even to me. It will come down to who prepares better and who has the will to win.
