Pacquiao vs Cotto Fight Odds: Tomorrow night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, Manny "Pac Man" Pacquiao and Miguel "Junito" Cotto will battle for the WBO's Welterweight Championship. The 12 round title fight is set to begin at 9:00pm ET and can be seen live on HBO Pay-Per-View. Pacquiao vs Cotto Fight Odds at online bookmaker Bodog.com have the Filipino listed as -280 moneyline favorite.

Manny Pacquiao comes into this 145lbs. catchweight fight with a 49-3-2 professional record. He last fought in May of this Pacquiao vs Cotto Fight Oddsyear when he garnered the IBO Lightweight Championship with a second round knockout of veteran Ricky Hatton. The 5' 6" General Santos City native has won his last 10 fights; his last defeat came back in March of 2005 against Erik Morales (unanimous decision). He has since beaten Morales twice, once by TKO and once by KO.

Pacquiao, who currently bears the moniker of Ring Magazine's #1 Pound-for-Pound fighter, is known for his great quickness and vicious knockout power. Thirty-seven of the southpaw's 49 career wins have come via knockout. Pacquiao's trainer, Freddy Roach, feels that power will be on display again tomorrow night.

"I am very confident in my guy and we are 100-percent ready for this fight," Roach said. "I feel like Manny, with the power he is punching with right now, at this weight...is going to knock Cotto out. I look forward to the win."

Miguel Cotto, who hails from Caguas, Puerto Rico, enters tomorrow's fight with a 34-1 record, his only setback coming at the hands of Antonio Margarito in July of 2008. Since that loss, Cotto has gone on to capture the vacant WBO welterweight title with a fifth round TKO of Michael Jennings in February of this year. He successfully defended that title in June, scoring a split decision win over Joshua Clottey.

Cotto, who is a durable fighter and devastating body puncher (27 knockouts), has faced and beaten some great fighters, including Zab Judah and Shane Mosley, but Pacquiao will be his toughest test to date. However, the 29 year old seems undeterred by the Filipino's record or accomplishments.

"If he (Pacquiao) thinks he is going to win seven titles in seven different weight divisions now, he has picked the wrong moment, the wrong fighter and the wrong opponent," Cotto said.

Mayweather vs Marquez Results: Floyd Mayweather Jr. showed why he is the best fighter on the planet with a 12-round drumming of top-10 pound-4-pound fighter Juan Manuel Marquez. After an 18 month layoff Mayweather turned in one of the best performances of his career by winning practically every minute of every round against the 36-year old Mexican legend Marquez. Mayweather was a 4-1 boxing betting odds favorite at the sports books but he performed like a 30-1 favorite. Bet on Boxing at online sportsbook BetUS.com and receive up to 145% in Cash Bonuses.

Mayweather who weighed in 2 lbs. over the contracted weight limit of 144 lbs. looked a full two weight classes larger than Marquez in the ring and used it to his advantage. Mayweather flattened Marquez in the second round with a short blinding left hook that had the Mexican in trouble. Marquez showed incredible recuperative powers by beating the count and regaining his legs to finish the round upright.

Get the latest fight predictions at VegasSharps.com. Throughout the fight, Marquez had no answer for anything Mayweather did. Mayweather boxed from the outside with a heavy pinpoint jab and unloaded blitzing rights and hooks with perfect timing. Marquez tried to flurry on occasion but landed arguably 3 clean punches in 12 rounds. Marquez gamely tried to the very end with a bloodied nose and puffy face but Mayweather counterpunched everything he threw and smothered him on the inside.

Mayweather’s speed, defense, conditioning and boxing ability is unrivaled and he should be instilled as a 2-1 boxing betting favorite in a dream fight against Manny Pacquiao . After the fight Shane Mosley confronted Mayweather and tension was high and a fight against Mosley should also favor Mayweather at a closer 8-5 margin. Final scores read  120-107, 119-108 and 118-109 all for Mayweather. Mayweather improves to 40-0, 25 KO’s. Marquez drops to 50-5-1, 37 KO’s.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez Fight Prediction: The time has come for the super fight of the year when the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez Fight gets under way in the squared circle tonight at 11 PM ET. Online sportsbook BetUS.com has Mayweather installed as the prohibitive favorite at -450 odds but money has been coming in on the underdog Juan Manuel Marquez at +300 odds.

Marquez is hungry to show that he is the most recent great Mexican fighter that is capable of defeating the best fighter on the planet. Does the 36-year old Mexican have enough to get the job done? We turned to the boxing picks experts at VegasSharps.com to get their Floyd Maywether Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez fight prediction.

In this fight we expect the brilliance of Floyd Mayweather to show against a fighter that is still very-good but not athletically gifted enough to win. We expect Marquez to try and use his combination punching to try and tag Mayweather but Floyd’s defense is too superior. Marquez is not a natural brawler and is more comfortable at boxing and countering. Marquez will not be able to outbox the best pure boxer in the sport and  if he tries to brawl he could get hurt by the naturally stronger man in Mayweather who could out-weigh him by 10 lbs. at fight time. Marquez has enough power to hold his own in the trenches but his skin would shred like paper if he ate enough of Floyd’s lighting shots.

Pretty Boy Floyd has different ways to get the job done against Marquez who really holds no advantage in any department in this fight. Marquez has the will but he does not have the style or hand speed that is necessary to dethrone the pound-4-pound king.

Fight Prediction: Floyd Mayweather Jr. -450 odds (3 UNITS)

The big question on most gambler minds in the Maywether vs Marquez fight is how Juan Manuel Marquez can beat the amazing speed of Floyd Mayweather Jr. The odds makers at online sportsbook BetUS.com have Floyd Mayweather Jr listed as a heavy –450 odds favorite over underdog Juan Manuel Marquez +275 odds.

Mayweather vs Marquez Fight: How To Beat MayweatherMayweather’s supersonic speed has been a huge factor to him being the best pound-4-pound fighter on the planet and Marquez is no speed demon. With this disadvantage readily present I turned to legendary NY trainer Milton LaCroix to find out how it is possible to beat Mayweather and his incredible speed.

Here is what Milton LaCroix had to say to VegasSharps.com about the Mayweather vs Marquez fight: “First of all if you want to be able to beat Mayweather you have to be willing to die in that ring and Marquez seems to have that going for him after downing his own urine (chuckles). One way to beat speed is with a well-timed stiff jab. Marquez has a pretty good jab but you need a great jab. Another thing a fighter has to do against Mayweather is not give him an inch to breathe. You have to rough Mayweather up and fight a dirty fight against him. I would tell Marquez to beat up his arms and shoulders to the point that he couldn’t lift his Fu@#ng arms. You not only have to throw punches at Floyd non-stop but also for a every minute of every round which takes great conditioning.”

The OVER in the Mayweather vs Marquez fight is listed at –350 odds and the UNDER is listed at +250 odds at BetUS.com.

In the HBO series Mayweather vs. Marquez 24\7 Marquez has been working on improving his hand speed and it seems that he has gotten quicker. Marquez is known as a counterpuncher but he did throw over 80 punches per round against Juan Diaz in his last fight so he has the ability to volume punch and apply pressure. Marquez does appear to be in incredible shape for this fight but he is 36-years old. Marquez is the smaller man naturally but he has put on a significant amount of muscle and looks strong.
