CARSON, CA ? Filipino boxing hero Donnie 'Ahas' Nietes and up and coming featherweight star Mark 'Magnifico' Magsayo who will take on Mexicans former world champion Edgar Sosa and late replacement Ramiro Robles respectively this Saturday at the StubHub Center here, are heavy betting favorites in the odds that were posted in the sports books, Eye on Gaming (EOG) website reported.

In the scheduled 12-round WBO flyweight inter-continental championship on the main event, Nietes is -2000 while Sosa is +1100 which means you have to bet $2,000 for Nietes to win $100 and your $100 bet for Sosa will win you $1,100.

In the featured undercard, Magsayo, who will defend his WBO international featherweight title also scheduled for 12 rounds, is -5500 while Robles is +2200. You need to bet a whopping $5,500 for Magsayo to win you $100 while a $100 bet on a Robles win will bring you home $2,200.

According to EOG, ?Nietes as a long time champion who is moving up in weight class has already achieved near legend status in his home country, while Magsayo is the true reason the promotion is bringing their fighters stateside ? they think Magsayo is a future star.?
