Oddsmakers lock Pacquiao as 7-1 favorite
LAS VEGAS - Every time Manny Pacquiao fights, fans from all over the world flock to Sin City for a weekend of boxing entertainment, and in the process, pour millions of dollars in revenue to the city.
Even with Pacquiao’s fight set to happen in Texas, casino owners are still confident that Pacquiao’s Saturday fight will still bring in gambling dollars to Las Vegas.
Most casinos have set Pacquiao’s odds at 7-to-1 that he will beat Joshua Clotttey. This is lower than the 8 to 1 odds set earlier, but still higher compared to Pacquiao’s previous fights. Betting $700 will win $100, while betting $100 for Clottey wins $500 dollars. With such high odds in favor of Pacquiao, some gamblers are not bothering to bet for the Filipino champion.
Pacquiao fan Chris Bermudez says he is not betting on his boxer this time.
“You have to put $800 just to win one hundred dollars. If I put $3,000, how much am I gonna win? It’s not worth it. I support Manny; I just don’t have the money to pay for it right now,” said Bermudez.
“Money is kind of tight right now,” said Luis Santos, who echoed Bermudez’s statement. “I just want to keep it easy, watch the fight, and support Manny.”
Round proposition betting for the Pacquiao-Clottey fight opens to the public today. This lets fans bet based on the length of the fight, and gives them a chance to earn more money on their bets.
Fight fan Joe Cortez says by betting on the rounds, he’s betting smart.
“I’m betting that the fight is gonna go under 9 rounds. Its plus-180, so you win close to $200 for a $100 bet. Either way, if Clottey wins, I win; if Pacquiao (wins), I win. It’s a for-sure bet,” Cortez said. Balitang America
