Broner-DeMarco - salvador - 11-15-2012 03:56 PM

I just rewatched Broner-De Leon and I'm starting to think that I'd like to put some money on DeMarco if the odds are right but I can't find the odds anywhere.

Broner had real problems with De Leon's straight left hand and was unable to use his huge speed advantage to do much of anything. DeMarco is also a southpaw and has a 3 inch height advantage and is a much more skilled fighter than De Leon and every bit as tough.

At +200 or higher, I'm a buyer of DeMarco. Anyone know of a reputable gambling site with odds on this fight? (I use sportsbook.com which doesn't have it.)

It also kind of raises the question of how marketable Broner really is if you can't get odds on the biggest fight of his career. Am I living in a vacuum where I just naturally assume that this is a big fight when the reality is it'll probably get FNF ratings?

That is the fight that gives me pause on this one too.

DeMarco is a tough dude and lets his hands go.

As for the odds...they are STUPID

DeMarco is +650, Broner -1200. NO JOKE.

In fact, DeMarco by KO is +1400 while Broner by KO is -120.

Hey, Sal....remember when we scored on DeMarco over Linares when this board first opened?....that was a good win.

I think DeMarco is a genuinely talented fighter...I like him and his attitude, but I feel he is outleagued as well as up against the system here...

I wouldn't put more than $20 on him with those odds JD listed...

I remember it fondly and I have to admit I'm probably a bit biased by that win and by the way Broner handled coming in overweight against Escobedo.

I agree with everything you say, but I have to add that Broner really did look bad against De Leon - another southpaw. Unfortunately I'm too lazy to start another internet gambling account and sportsbook.com isn't carrying the fight. At +650, putting $100 down on him would make watching Broner lose one of the genuinely satisfying fights of my life. But yes, Broner is too fast and too coordinated for him.

I just want to see Broner's head end up on the moon. Floyd Mayweather ego without Floyd Mayweather talent.

The dude does have power though and it will get him out of trouble in the future, a bit like it did for Prince Naseem for so long, but sooner rather than later he will get beat.

As for those odds, as Stephen Edwards says on BT, those little old men in Vegas don't lose too often.


Broner-DeMarco - Big Slim - 11-17-2012 11:08 AM

Agree with you guys on those odds being suspicious. When they're THAT lopsided, it means Vegas (or Jersey, lol) WANTS you to bet on the dog.


Broner-DeMarco - kidbazooka1 - 11-18-2012 02:07 AM

Broner is a bad muthaf*cker.

He beat the sh*t out of Demarco with ease.

I don't see anyone at 135-140 touching him and eventually 147.


Broner-DeMarco - Method - 11-18-2012 02:23 AM

I dont know fuck all about De Marco, but Broner has some fkn skills. Floyd Mayweather/Hopkins/Toney-esque defense-to-offense game.
