Anyway, he is still winning money regardless of the result. I will just watch this fight in the sideline and avoid betting.
Just place a small bet, man, it’ll make watching the fight more exciting. After seeing his training, I’d say he really has a shot at pulling off an upset. I mean, we’re talking about the only 8-division world champion in history. That resume alone should be enough to convince us that his comeback is legit.
If that’s the reason people find betting on him attractive, then I’m not really buying into it. I mean, when Pacman fought Ugas, he was still active, still held a title and he still lost. Now he's coming back after years of being out of the ring, trying to challenge a younger champion who already beat the guy that beat him. I just don’t see the math adding up there.
But you have to understand that Ugas was a replacement fighter. So I will have to give Manny a shadow of the doubt that time. His original opponent is Spence but he was not able to fight because he didn't passed the health check as we all know that Spence has injury in his eyes and he is coming from a accident. So Manny doesn't have enough time to study and adjust to Ugas style and so that's why we have seen a sort of upset. We can also used the same argument that you uses, Barrios defeat Ugas yes that is a fact. But Barrios was defeated by Keith Thurman. Yes, the same Thurman that says Manny is old and has small hands like a T-Rex. So this fight might be really intriguing and interesting for boxing bettors. Although Manny is a big underdog, maybe there will be some of us placing a small bet on Manny regardless of whatever reasons we might have.
