Floyd Mayweather Jr v Manny Pacquiao Boxing Betting
Boxing seems to be going through somewhat of a hiatus in terms of popularity with the betting public. There are few superstars in boxing and many of the different weight classifications seem a little stale.
However, this is one bout which will have everyone talking as an arrogant and energetic American takes on one of the greatest fighters the sport has ever seen. Floyd Mayweather Jr v Manny Pacquiao boxing betting could turn out to rival the Haye v Klitschko bout on the betting market.
Manny Pacquiao
Manny Pacquiao has now been fighting for a number of years and he has managed to keep himself very fit. The length of his career has enabled him to gather a lot of support from all over the world. This should give him an edge over the American who is disliked by a lot of people for his attitude.
Manny Pacquiao holds all of the aces in terms of experience. He will use this to his advantage to compensate in areas such as speed and energy. He will be able to read the way Mayweather is dancing around the ring and compensate for it with some heavy and well timed punches.
Floyd Mayweather Jr
Floyd Mayweather Jr will consider himself a superstar but a lot of people would like nothing better than to see him knocked out. His attitude can be his biggest weakness because talking before a fight can often provide inspiration for an opponent and make them even more determined.
The biggest strengths for Floyd Mayweather Jr are an ability to move around the ring very quickly. He is an extremely fit man who can stay on the move for an entire fight which is remarkable considering how tired some fighters look by the later rounds.
Welterweight Division
The middle divisions are often not given the same glamorous attention as the heavyweight divisions. However, Pacquiao has improved the Welterweight division a great deal and will be looking for another big win to go with the 53 he already has through his career.
The Welterweight division is good to watch because the fighters are a lot smaller than in the heavyweight classifications. The most decorated welterweight in the world can be fighting in a title contest and there is a chance he could lose because it doesn't take as much energy and strength to knock out a smaller fighter.
Boxing Betting
A lot is going to be said over the coming weeks in the build up to the fight but the same strategy and routines with boxing Sports Betting will appear. There are many different markets for this fight which will favour one of the fighters.
Both fighters will be going for the total knock out but there is always the chance the fight could last the distance and then be decided on points. The best way to approach Boxing Betting is to keep one eye on the news as each fighter prepares for the bout.
