Antonio Margarito vs Sugar Shane Mosley Betting Tips

Sugar Shane Mosley is the distinct underdog in his upcoming fight against Antonio Margarito. At the outset, Margarito is backed at a mere 1/5 to secure victory against Mosley, who is looking to get things back on track and fight his way back up the ladder as many observers feel as though he's past it. Clearly, the bookmakers are favouring a latter round KO victory for Margarito as his odds of a TKO, KO or DQ victory run the gamut from 40/1 in the opening rounds to 14/1 in rounds 9 and 10. Clearly the longer this goes on, the better it starts to look for Margarito, who is backed at a mere 4/5 for a points victory. Backing Mosley to win via KO, TKO or DQ in any round is paying out at a massive 66/1 with a points win also coming in at an enticing payout of 6/1. The draw pays 25/1, but we all know that isn't going to happen. Personally, while I think Margarito is a fearsome competitor, I think Mosley has more to prove in this fight. I'm liking Sugar Shane Mosley for the outright win based on the 10/3 value and I'm backing him to take the fight in the 8, 9 and 10 rounds.
