Let us lay down relevant circumstantial values before we delve into the final point of random blood-testing. It’s given: Pound-for-Pound King Floyd Mayweather, Jr. has the upper-hand.
Immediately status-post fight of Pacquiao-Marquez trilogy, WBO Welterweight Champion Manny Pacquiao took a downward slope at + 220 versus towering climb by Mayweather, Jr. to -300, which meant betting $100 for Mayweather would only win $ 33.33 and betting $100 for Pacquiao would win $220.
And today, as of this writing, Pacquiao suffers with an all-time low at +350 versus inversely deepening high at -500.
If the fight were held today and a bet of $ 100 for Mayweather, Jr. and granting he wins, one would win only $ 20. And with the same proposition, a bet of $ 100 for Pacquiao and granting he wins, one would win $ 350.
All these are based on standard deviation and other constructive variable computation of probabilities.
And this betting perspective surely tells the boxing public who really deserves the higher share between these two competing top fighters. Advertisement
It’s expected Pacquiao would have to take less money in order to sign the contract.
Contrary to Pacquiao’s army of writers’ contant hammering of false impression, THAT’S NOT A BIG NEWS at all!
What’s big news is if Pacquiao declares that he is submitting to the Olympic-style random blood testing until fight night and one after the fight which Mayweather, Jr. consistently demands, to which Pacquiao refuses.
Still, the ball is on Pacquiao’s court. Mayweather, Jr.has come forward to boxing fans and aficionados shifting the burden of approval to Pacquiao’s camp.
Pacquiao’s only biggest, unprecedented move, if he will: Submit to Mayweather, Jr’s blood-testing. Nothing more, nothing less!
Stay tuned for more!
