When the Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight opened at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook on Feb. 16, Mayweather was a -2500 favorite and McGregor a +1100 underdog.
A lot has changed since then.
Westgate took two “low five-figure” wagers on McGregor at +500 Monday afternoon, pushing the odds down to the lowest they’ve been at the book since opening (McGregor +425, Mayweather -550).
Minutes after that happened, bettors pounced on the low odds on Mayweather, pushing it up to -600 and McGregor to +450.

Those two bets were the largest the Westgate has taken on McGregor so far; the sportsbook took a “low six-figure” wager on Mayweather at -650 the week of July 3.
For comparison, a $100 wager on Mayweather placed on Feb. 16 would’ve won a grand total of $4; now, that $100 bet would yield $16.67.
Across town at the South Point sportsbook on Monday afternoon, another big wager came in on a McGregor prop bet with a better payout. One adventurous bettor wagered $35,000 on McGregor to win by KO at 6-1 odds. That bet would win $210,000 if McGregor pulled off the shocker.
The Mayweather-McGregor fight will take place on Saturday, Aug. 26, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
