Franks, or anybody living in Vegas - talk to me

I'm wondering if I'm going to have to come over this weekend and make my plays on the fight. I wanna know if the casinos have prop lines on the fight. Lines like "Mosely by decision" and "will the fight go the distance". I'm sure they have the distance thing or an over under but what about the first one?

Also, do they have a line out on Byrd vs Oquendo?
If so, what is the best Byrd line and where is it at?

If you want to make a multiple dime wager, you may have to come into town. Actually, I make a
good number of wagers off-shore. This town has
turned into a bunch of bean counters. I haven't
seen Byrd up anywhere. As spinch said, be careful with this one.

Franks, can you let us know this week if you see a Byrd vs Fres line up anywhere? I am ready to go over there and pounce on it if I hear some good news from you.

ok. Just for you I will venture down to the
dreaded strip and sniff around a little. But
I still feel we won't find a rogue line as these
feminine napkins here wait for a market line to
be established and then hang up a number.

At the link below, it mentions that Byrd is a 3-1 favorite. I guess this has been the line in Vegas. Olympic sure does know how to load up on the juice.

If theres a place in Vegas that has Byrd 3-1 I'm on my way.

Franks, talk to me babe.

Almly, I think your best bet is to settle for the 5-1 odds on Byrd. Having to physically visit the Vegas sportsbooks makes it very difficult to find out which of them may have a line on the fight. There just does not seem to be a lot of demand for this fight at the venue nor is there much action at the sportsbooks on this one.

Good Luck!!!
