As expected, wagering on tonight’s Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao clash is hot and heavy. Mayweather is currently a -210 favorite, while Pacquiao backers can get +170. 49% of the action is coming in on Mayweather, 51% on Pacquiao.
“We expected this to be our highest bet fight in recent memory and as of today the rate that bets are coming in is astounding and may surpass our expectations,” said Kevin Bradley, Sports Book Manager at Bovada.lv. “We will know more tomorrow, where we expect to take 50% of the bets on the fight. Even though action is pretty even on the fight itself, our liability on Pacquiao is steadily growing since he is paying just under 2/1. The best case for the book is a Mayweather decision, no surprise there.
The worst case is an early Pacquiao KO or even a draw which, I am without words on how much love it is getting from our bettors.”
Typically a bet for a draw on a fight will pay about 33:1. For Mayweather=Pacquiao, a draw is paying 10:1.
