虽然梅威瑟VS麦格雷戈的赔率是11比1，也就是说，你出赌资100美元，收益有可能是1100美元。
但赌徒们几乎压倒性的一致支持麦格雷戈获胜，95％的赌注和79％的钱都压在了麦格雷戈身上。内华达博.彩委员会的官方财务报告显示，2015年梅帕大战的赌注并没有打破历史记录，但有业内人士认为梅嘴之战可以轻松超越3500万美元。。。。。。
虽然每16名投注者中有15人将钱放在麦格雷戈身上，但看好梅威瑟的拳迷似乎还在等待赔率下降，已经有人押注5万美元看好梅威瑟，还有人打电话要赌梅威瑟获胜50万美元。

Gamblers apparently think McGregor could really beat Mayweather
Eben Novy-Williams, Bloomberg Published 2:14 pm, Friday, August 11, 2017
On **, Floyd Mayweather should make quick work of Conor McGregor when the two fight in Las Vegas later this month. Mayweather's a 49-0 boxing champion with titles in five weight classes; McGregor is a mixed-martial arts star with no professional boxing experience.
Gamblers' money, however, is on McGregor. While Mayweather is still the favorite, bettors have overwhelmingly backed McGregor to win -- odds that opened as high as 11-1 (a successful $100 bet yields $1,100) have been cut by more than half. At one sports book, 95 percent of bets and 79 percent of the money taken favors McGregor.
Lopsided or not, the fight has drawn widespread interest. McGregor is the biggest star in a rapidly growing sport with a passionate fanbase. He's also 29 -- 11 years younger than Mayweather, who hasn't fought since he retired two years ago.
The bout is on pace to set a Nevada record for fight betting, passing the money gambled in 2015 when Mayweather fought Manny Pacquiao. Official financial reports from Nevada Gaming Commission don't break out boxing, but WestGate SuperBook Vice President Jay Kornegay estimated that between $30 and $35 million was bet on that fight. Mayweather-McGregor should "easily surpass" that, he said.
As a result, the oddsmakers are facing heavy liability. As it stands Friday, William Hill would owe clients $2 million if McGregor wins (and win only about $400,000 if he loses). That exposure could reach $5 million by fight night, according to Joe Asher, head of William Hill U.S., a record for their liability on a single event.
At South Point's sports book, where 15 out of every 16 bettors put money on McGregor, the liability is currently at $500,000. MGM, co-owner of the arena where the fight is taking place, is also bracing for a large loss should McGregor win.
Bettors who want to back Mayweather may be waiting to place their bets, hoping to see the odds shrink even further. South Point took a $50,000 bet on Mayweather on Thursday, and Asher said William Hill got a call this week from someone looking to bet $500,000 on the boxing champion.
"Typically the late money is on the favorite," Asher said. "But it won't get us anywhere close to even." |
