Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions

Hehehe, for sure the brothers can offer Manny a fight, as someone suggested in a catch weight and it could generate huge money for both of them. I don't think Manny is hard to negotiate though, so it can be made as long as the money in the table is very attractive.

Yeah, I also think that Manny could easily accept the offer that they might do if there's really a good and interesting amount for Manny. Since he's all into his businesses now and these exhibitions, he could give time and entertainment with a good talent fee on the side.

As far as the chances of the Paul brothers getting knock out, maybe they can put it in the contract that Manny should take some brakes. Or at least they will have to survived the whole fight just like in the Floyd vs Logan wherein there is no winner and Floyd at times has the change to knock him out but he didn't pull it.

Ohhh, Yeah. Very likely since they're the ones who makes contract, they can put those conditions that could favorable to them. But, I'm thinking if they'll put it on the contract on who's going to be a winner then and if they'll include it that it should them.

If there's a clause like that, I don't think that Manny will be obliged. Tongue

and that is the major reason why it is not advisable to bet on exhibition fights. they may have some prior arrangements that their fans don't know of. it may be entertaining to watch but betting good amount of money is not recommended on this type of boxing fight. judges can easily make it as a draw even if there is a clear winner inside the ring. but i can agree that there will be boxing fans that are willing to pay for gate ticket if manny will again decide to show up inside the ring.

He will have to follow that clause in the contract, otherwise, Manny might not get his money. Grin

. So whoever one of the Paul's he fight, they won't get knock out and so their hype will continue.

And I do agree that it's hard to bet on this exhibition fight because some of them might be rig. Again, another good example is Tyson vs Jones. When they have the exhibition, Tyson was the favorite, but the fight ended in draw when it was clear that Iron Mike should at least won this fight. But the judges see it as a draw. And so fans are in a uproar about the decision and that there are speculations that the fight is set up to be a draw in the beginning and there will be no knock out.
