If these were the real odds in the Vegas the books would be getting no action.

I cannot believe the odds, either. But those are official online betting ones, I cannot do anything about it.

No kidding. I'd love to put a little down on this one, but those odds are so pitiful, I can't figure which makes the most sense.

I am considering manipulating these odds to make them more interesting for all of us (like +1 each or +50% each).
I heard the fight will not be televised in the US.  Too bad for you, I am sure Stoney will do something great on Saturday night!

Ruiz wins! +1
Valuev wins! +1
DRAW! + 2
I changed the odds, am sure everybody will be happy there is more to win now. Actually we stick to official odds, but since we all agreed those were too crappy .... 
Exit, you are breaking my heart, man! LOL

I'm plenty prepared for it. I just don't want to watch two guys hugging for 12 rounds and then Ruiz getting the decision. Doesn't really matter anyways. That belt doesn't mean much. Toney is still the champ in my mind.

I cannot ignore the fact they found steroids in Toney's system.

and I can't ignore the fact that Ruiz hasn't beaten an elite heavyweight besides a slumping Rahman and aging Holyfield.

I actually think Ruiz beat decent opposition: Holyfield, Rahman, Golota, Oquendo, Johnson. Who do you think he should fight next? I am hoping for a unification tournament, that would be AWESOME!!

By the way, who did Toney beat at heavyweight? An even older Hoylfield, Booker and Guinn.

I would love to see him fight a guy like Klitschko or Byrd...I wouldn't mind seeing Toney put another whooping on him either.

If Toney and Rahman finally agree on the purse split, we will see how well Toney takes a Rahman punch.

I wouldn't mind seeing that fight either.....I'm not a huge Toney fan, but I do think he's one of the better boxers left in the weak HW division.
