Pacquiao vs Bradley Odds: Complete Betting Line for Every Fight

Steven CookJun 7, 2018

Saturday's fight between Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley should be one for the ages, but it's only the culmination of an exciting night of boxing.

There are some familiar faces entering the ring hoping to continue their brilliance, while some youngsters are trying to supplant their name in the boxing world in the hopes of fighting in their own feature fight in the future. 

Let's take a look at the betting line for each June 9 fight, along a quick preview of each showdown.

Jorge Arce vs. Jesus Rojas - bantamweights

The opening fight of Saturday's big event features two boxers on very different ends of their careers.

Arce has been through the wars with a 60-6-2 record and has fought nearly 400 rounds of boxing in his professional career, but he's worn down and far past his boxing prime. A loss could bring Arce's career to an end.

Rojas will be facing off in his 21st bout as a pro and has 13 knockouts to his name. Arce should pack a little bit more of a punch, but Rojas has the advantage in speed and intensity.

Betting Line (via SportBet.com): Arce -1600, Rojas +1050, Over/Under 6.5


Guillermo Rigondeaux vs. Teon Kennedy - WBA junior featherweight title

These fighters seem to be going in different directions, if their most recent fights were any indication.

Kennedy's last performance was on Friday Night Fights, where he didn't look the part of a boxer on his way to fighting for a title. He's 1-1-1 in his last three fights, and 17-1-2 overall.

Meanwhile, Rigondeaux looks to be taking this one home with a 9-0 record. He's only competed in two fights where he didn't receive a KO. 

Betting Line (via SportBet.com): Rigondeaux -2000, Kennedy +1250, Over/Under 7.5


The undefeated Mike Jones (26-0, 19 KOs) is looking as sharp as ever right now and shouldn't have much of a problem with Bailey, who has lost seven fights and hasn't held a world title since 2000.

It's hard to see any way Bailey wins this fight, and if he does, boxers will be lining up to fight him and take the IBF welterweight crown. 

Betting Line (via SportBet.com): Jones -500, Bailey +400, Over/Under 8.5


Timothy Bradley vs. Manny Pacquiao - WBO welterweight title

At long last, we have the feature presentation.

Pacquiao's status in itself makes him the favorite, not to mention his 54-3-2 record. But he's facing off against a fighter worthy of being in the same ring, as Bradley can boast an undefeated record of 28-0. 

Just a few years ago, this would look like a sure-fire win for Pacquiao. However, his last bout against Juan Manuel Marquez was anything but a strong performance and the signs are there that he may be on the decline.

The story lines leaking out of this one are endless. Has Pacquiao's spiritual awakening softened up his boxing game? Does the young, undefeated Bradley have enough technique and energy to stun one of boxing's stars? Is Pacquiao on his way out of boxing with a loss?

All of these questions, and more, will be answered. After Saturday, we should have a much better sense of Pacquiao's future, and the future of the sport itself.

Betting Line (via SportBet.com): Pacquiao -450, Bradley +360, Over/Under 9.5
