07/23/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) -

REPORT DATE: July 25th (Rookies), July 30th (Veterans)

SITE: Chargers Park, San Diego, CA

CAMP OBJECTIVES: With No. 1 wideout Vincent Jackson and left tackle Marcus McNeill both looking like long-term holdouts, and with rookie running back Ryan Mathews something less than a sure thing as he prepares to take over for LaDainian Tomlinson, Chargers fans are understandably nervous about the direction of the team's offense. General manager A.J. Smith looks content to roll with the likes of Malcom Floyd, Legedu Naanee, Josh Reed and Buster Davis if Jackson fails to show up, and veteran Tra Thomas is a fail-safe if McNeill stays away. As for Mathews, Darren Sproles remains to keep the pressure off. But if this group struggles at all in the summer, Smith could be under further scrutiny. The defense has its issues as well. The all-important nose tackle position is a battle between holdovers Ogemdi Nwagbuo, Antonio Garay and rookie fifth-rounder Cam Thomas (North Carolina). A deficient pass rush needs former first-rounders Shawne Merriman and Larry English to come out of camp playing better than they did a year ago. And, in the secondary, Antoine Cason and ex- Bear Nathan Vasher are battling to start opposite Quentin Jammer.

PRESEASON SCHEDULE:

Aug 14 - vs. Chicago, 9:00 PM Aug 21 - vs. Dallas, 9:00 PM Aug 27 - at New Orleans, 8:00 PM Sep 2 - at San Francisco, 10:00 PM

Mayweather picked to beat De La Hoya
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya and his rival Floyd Mayweather Jr. arrived at the MGM Grand here Wednesday amid the pomp and pandemonium befitting two of the biggest stars in the sport who are about to duke it out for the WBC super welterweight crown this Saturday (Sunday in Manila).

As of Wednesday, MySportsbook.com closed its book with Mayweather a favorite to defeat De La Hoya at -170 (a $100 bet wins $70), while De La Hoya is a +140 underdog (a $100 bet wins $140).

Mayweather arrived at about 11:30 a.m. on a big truck with his face and a big "World's Best Pound-for-Pound" sign scribbled across the vehicle. He was accompanied by his entourage made up of rappers and his training team.

A crowd of close to 3,000 eager fans packed the MGM Grand lobby, with their cameras in tow, all trying to vie for position to get a good angle at Mayweather, who is acknowledged as the world's best fighter pound-for-pound.

Eric Gomez, Golden Boy Promotions vice-president, described the fan turnout as "amazing" and swore he had never seen anything quite like this event.

"The crowd was fantastic. Everybody was just too eager to see the two fighters," said ALA manager Michael Aldeguer, who was among those who waited at the lobby together with his ward Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista and AJ Banal.

De La Hoya made his own grand entrance at the hotel lobby at around 12:30 p.m. accompanied by GBP chief executive officer Richard Schaefer and trainer Freddie Roach.

The same group of fans who trooped to see Mayweather also lingered around to get a close look at De La Hoya, who has been secretly working out at a Las Vegas gym for days after arriving from his main training camp in Puerto Rico.

The golden boy then took part in a closed-door afternoon workout with Bautista and Banal. The two, along with Aldeguer and wife Christine, as well as an HBO crew were the only ones allowed inside the gym.

De La Hoya and Mayweather take part in today's final press conference before the official weigh-in this Friday.

Ring Magazine, the acknowledged bible of boxing, reported in its June 2007 issue that 12 out of 20 boxing experts it interviewed have favored Mayweather to defeat De la Hoya, with only 8 favoring the latter.

But Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao said in a recent interview with The Freeman's Emmanuel Villaruel that De La Hoya will win by unanimous decision over Mayweather.
