This Week's Boxing Wagering Options

Fernando Vargas has slimmed down for his fight against Sugar Shane Mosley, but oddsmakers see something else slim: the odds on Vargas winning. For those who want to wager on the Vargas/Mosley fight Saturday in Las Vegas, you will see 40 pounds less on the frame of Vargas, who worked out hard to make the WBA Light Middleweight bout happen. There are a handful of boxing wagering options at Pinnacle Sports, including the main one listing Mosley as -178 favorite. Oddsmakers also believe this fight may go the distance as the over/under on rounds is -180 favorite to go OVER 11.5. If you think Vargas can take out Mosley, who has struggled in recent years after a dominating early career, you can get a +540 payoff. There is also heavyweight action wagering overseas. Matt Skelton is a -220 favorite to defeat Danny Williams, whose claim to fame was his upset of Mike Tyson in 2004.
