On August 27th boxing has an interesting match-up. We have two talented fighters both in their prime (both age 28) and this fight really places them in the lead spotlight. It's a very important fight for both fighters in establishing future big money paydays. Guerrero seems to be more the boxer with a good jab, stamina and good ring presence. Maidana brings the excitement factor with his punching power but it seems that against boxers that don't trade punches he often has difficulty creating openings to hurt opponents. Ortiz opened himself up trying to knockout Maidana and instead got KOd. His last fight against Morales in what many thought was an automatic knockout for Maidana turned into a fight to survive and win. That fight and exposure definitely had an impact on the betting odds for this fight. Guerrero is roughly a 2-1 favorite (which is an accurate line I feel). The fact that Guerrero is a southpaw should be of little problems as Maidana has done well against southpaws and those fights showed no difference than comapred to his fights verse orthodox opponents. I've yet to run the video and study but from what I've seen I would like to prop bet Guerrero to win via decision. Thus changing the odds from laying -200 to receving around even money or -125 at worst. I'm posting to get a feel for who forum advocates like or more so a fight breakdown and analysis. This way I'll have plenty of time watching video with any insight someone has posted that I've overlooked.
